I was fortunate to be selected as an official photographer for the 2023 Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta (AIBF). With 546 balloons and 968,000 attendees this year, the AIBF is the largest ballooning event on earth and the largest annual international event held in the United States. It’s also the most photographed event in the world with an estimated 25 million photos taken over eight days. Here are a few of the 5,200 photos that I took during this years' event.
