This is the historic Cunningham Cabin. 

Watching those dramatic clouds roll heavily over the jagged peaks of the Teton Range at sunset, you can almost feel the old American West.  Built back in 1888, this unique "dog-trot" cabin has weathe
Sometimes, the best view requires getting a little low.  While coming across these giants in Grand Teton National Park, we found a natural ditch running along the edge of the clearing at a safe viewing distance.  Slipping down into it was allowed us
There is nothing quite like the sound of the morning push from pasture to corral.  The ground starts to vibrate.  Then, out of the haze, the herd appears,...a thundering wall of muscle, momentum, and flying dust.

Capturing this moment at the Triangl
The ultimate carpool lane doesn’t exist...oh, wait. 🦬🕊️

Ran into this magnificent bison out in Grand Teton National Park, and he brought along a few hitchhikers.  These are Brown-headed Cowbirds, and while it looks like they're just catching
I had the absolute honor of being sponsored by Tamron to speak at Dan’s Camera City in Allentown, PA, giving a lecture on wildlife photography for their Wild Weekend event.  Sharing my passion, camera settings, and field stories with such an en
Meet Horus, an absolute stunning Peregrine Falcon and an educational ambassador at the Teton Raptor Center. In this frame he’s showing off a textbook behavior called mantling.

In the wild, a falcon will drop its wings and hunch forward like th
There is something completely otherworldly about the morning horse run-in at the Triangle X Ranch, but this particular morning was absolute poetry.

As the herd charged in, they kicked up a gigantic wall of dust.  As the chaos peaked, the morning sun
There is absolutely nothing quite like spring in the Tetons. 🏔️

We stumbled upon this incredible moose cow guiding her brand-new, remarkably tiny calf into the valley streams.  Seeing them completely dwarfed by the massive, jagged peaks of Grand Te
This particular evening at Triangle X Ranch, everything aligned perfectly.  As the sun began to dip behind the jagged peaks of the Grand Teton Range, it cast a breathtaking starburst over the mountains, bathing the valley in a warm, golden glow.  Sta
Imagine looking out your living room window and seeing this stroll by.  Talk about a house with a great view! 🏡🦬

Spring in Grand Teton National Park brings a very specific kind of magic, and it comes in a bright orange coat.  Affectionately known
Did you know baby bison are affectionately called “red dogs”? 🦬🎒

They get the nickname from their bright, reddish-orange coats, which make them look a whole lot more like a puppy than a 2,000-pound icon of the American West. They&rsquo
Be honest... are you tired of the horse pictures yet? 😂

These long, busy days have had me running on fumes, and truth be told, these equine images are the only ones I’ve even had time to sit down and look at!
For the last 10 days, I've photog
Standing by the wooden fences at Triangle X Ranch at sunrise, you can actually feel the ground shake before you even see the herd. Watching these horses charge down the hillside, kicking up dust into that crisp, golden morning light, is an incredible
I absolutely love the American bison because seeing them just screams "American West" to me.  When you look into their eyes, you can almost feel the deep, untamed history of this incredible landscape.  It's moments like these that remind me
Embracing the blur at Triangle X Ranch! 🐎 

Panning is one of those photography techniques that will test your absolute patience.  It can be incredibly frustrating, at times.  It also makes your keeper rate take a significant plunge.  However, when
Watching the first light hit the Tetons never gets old. 🏔️ We arrived at Snake River Overlook well before dawn to secure our spot and wait for the magic to happen.  The crisp mountain air is always a shock to the system but completely worth it. 🌲
