The stories i tell

Jackson Hole Horse Photography

Rachel and Steven, two best friends with a love for adventure, agreeing to model in the breathtaking Teton Mountains in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. The stage was set, the weather smokey at first, adding a mysterious allure to the scene. But as the smoke lifted, it revealed the majestic pink and purple hues of the Teton Mountains, with the perfect moon hanging in the sky like a glowing lantern.

As a photographer, capturing moments like these is a privilege. It's like painting with light and shadow, creating a timeless image that tells a story without words. The Western lifestyle is rich with tradition, rugged beauty, and untamed spirit. It's a lifestyle that speaks to the soul and resonates with authenticity.

Imagine a Western Wedding, set against the backdrop of a rustic ranch or a picturesque farm. The bride in her lace gown, the groom in his cowboy boots, surrounded by the beauty of nature. Or a horse engagement session, where the connection between the couple and the majestic animal is captured in a single frame.

Photography is more than just clicking a button; it's about capturing moments that will be cherished for a lifetime. It's about freezing time in a frame, preserving memories that will be passed down through generations. Just like Rachel and Steven's adventure in the Teton Mountains, these moments are fleeting and precious.

So let's embrace the Western lifestyle, with its rugged beauty and untamed spirit. Let's capture the essence of love and connection in every photograph. Let's create images that tell a story, evoke emotions, and stand the test of time. Because in the end, a picture is worth a thousand words, and a moment captured is a moment cherished forever.

From the untamed beauty of the mountains to the rich textures of the western lifestyle, my equine photography celebrates the strength, grace, and character of horses in their natural environment. Whether it’s a dramatic portrait of your prized steed against a backdrop of sweeping mountain vistas or a dynamic action shot that embodies the spirit of the West, each photograph is crafted to showcase the profound bond between horse and rider.

For couples who dream of capturing their love (anything from couples to weddings!) the breathtaking beauty of the Mountains, my approach blends romantic intimacy with the grandeur of nature and just a little spice. Picture-perfect moments are framed by rugged peaks, golden meadows, and serene alpine lakes, creating a timeless and enchanting backdrop for your love story. Each session is tailored to highlight your unique connection, with a style that marries the raw, natural beauty of the landscape with the genuine emotion between the two of you and your horses.

What other types of sessions do I offer?

In the world of working ranches, horses are more than just companions—they’re essential partners. My photography showcases these remarkable animals in their element, whether they're navigating rugged terrain, assisting in cattle management, or exhibiting their impressive skills during a long day on the range. Each image reflects the strength, agility, and unwavering dedication of these incredible equine partners.

Branding is a cornerstone of ranch tradition, a blend of heritage and hard work that deserves to be captured in its full, gritty splendor. I document every moment of this significant event, from the anticipation and preparation to the intense action and camaraderie. My goal is to immortalize the essence of the branding process with a keen eye for detail and authenticity, ensuring every frame tells a compelling story of ranch history.
