Mount Rainier and Heather Flower

Mount Rainier at sunset surrounded by heather flowers. Our photography trip to mount Rainier was incredibly successful as we lucked out with tons of flowers that were in full bloom during the summer. I have always had a weak spot for wildflower photography that displays incredible mountains, so naturally mount Rainier has been on my list, but took me a decade to fulfill. Our first few days of exploring left me incredibly thrilled with the displays of wildflowers, but the amount of fog and cloud made it so we didn’t get a chance to see the mountains until part of the way through our trip. On this special evening, I spent a few hours in this area of Paradise on the side of mount Rainier searching for photographic compositions. After dialing in this composition, I got the chance to sit down and enjoy this gorgeous sunset that made this trip so worth the effort.
