Chances are, you found this website because you’re keen on getting started in astrophotography. If you have ever witnessed an incredible image of space taken using an ordinary camera through a telescope and thought “I want to do that”, you’re not alone. You are now among the thousands of deep-sky astrophotography enthusiasts that have started a life-long journey to capture the night sky.

I know this because I was just like you. From the purchase of my first non-computerized telescope to my latest dedicated astrophotography camera, I am forever dedicated to improving my astrophotography techniques and skills. This hobby demands that you understand which equipment you need, and how to operate it under a clear night sky.

Hi my name is Elliott Brooks, and I have been photographing the night sky for nearly four decades.

I currently work as an accountant full-time. I am an avid hiker, nature photographer, and general outdoor nut. I enjoy nothing more than a camping trip under the stars with my sun and my girlfriend.

My sun Clay and my partner Adrienne are my biggest fans.

As I am sure many of you know, without the support of your family, it can be difficult to pursue your passion projects, especially when they demand much of your time. I’ll be the first to admit that in this regard, I am truly blessed.
