Grand Teton National Park

Travel: Quote available upon request

The Teton Range may be the prominent feature on the horizon, but it's the intricate combination of mountains, fault lines, glaciers, woodlands, waterways, lakes, marshes, and geological attributes that collectively craft the magnificent beauty of Grand Teton National Park. Though I currently reside in Salt Lake City, Utah I love to frequent and visit Grand Teton National Park and its surrounding areas including Teton Valley and Jackson, Wyoming. Creating and photographing in this location is among my favorite activities.

Best Time for Photography: The optimal time for photography is one hour prior to sunset or half an hour before sunrise. It's essential to be aware that at times, significant cloud cover can obscure the Grand Teton Cathedral Group in the Teton Mountains. I will diligently monitor the weather conditions and remain adaptable, making any necessary adjustments to ensure we capture the best possible mountain views, should that be your primary focus.

In the Teton Valley region, a few of my cherished spots for capturing photos include Schwabacher Landing, T.A. Moulton Barn, Snake River Overlook, Spring Creek Ranch, Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, Oxbow Bend, String Lake Roadway, Elk Ranch Flats Turnout, Willow Flat Overlook, Diamond Cross Ranch.

Deep in the heart of the rugged mountainous terrain, a bear ventured through the wilds of the forest. This bear was no ordinary bear; he possessed a creative spirit that set him apart from his fellow bears. With each step he took among the towering trees and rocky outcrops, The bears mind brimmed with inspiration. He saw the world in a way that others couldn't. It wasn't just about finding food or securing a den for the winter; The bears wanderings were a quest to express himself and explore the boundless world of creativity. As he continued to explore the mountains, the bears legacy grew, inspiring others to embrace their own creativity and see the world through the eyes of an artist. He reminded everyone that creativity, like the wild mountains, is a force that can never truly be tamed, and that it's a gift that should be celebrated and shared with the world.
