Yes, Michigan! - Photography is Nothing with Zach Dobson & Courtney McCracken

Episode 31 - Zach & Courtney talk about a trip to Hoeft State Park located on the beautiful shores of Lake Huron in Rogers City, Michigan. They stayed in a 1929 Sears Roebuck house just 100 yards from the beach, visited 40 Mile Point Lighthouse and Rogers City Marina, and took in a super early morning sunrise.

Zach & Courtney talk about the trip, life lessons they learned, and the photos Zach took along the way.
