 About Chad Dutson....

Chad is Wilderness Photographer who captures landscapes and wildlife. He is based in Alaska, and also frequents Hawai'i and Utah. He currently shoots with Sony and Nikon camera bodies and lenses from Sony, Nikon, and Sigma. Chad is an approved BLM-permitted guide to Coyote Buttes, White Pocket, and Grand Staircase-Escalante. He is a proud member of leading associations:

* Professional Photographers of America

Chad has an insatiable desire to wander the wild, seeking solitude and serenity away from the bustle of city life. He spent all but three years of his life living in the West, providing incredible opportunities to enhance his self-taught craft.

Chad's deep passion for photography pushes him to extreme levels to capture "the shot," and is always happy to share his experiences with others, for their own learning.
