Roaming

It was my last morning in the Tetons, the tail end of a trip that had already filled my memory card and my soul. The sun had just risen, casting a soft orange glow on the peaks, and Mt. Moran stood proudly under a pale November sky dusted with clouds. The park was quiet, still clinging to the last remnants of fall, and we had seen hardly another soul on the road.

After sunrise, we made a quick pit stop at one of the roadside bathrooms. Just before pulling in, we noticed a single car parked nearby. The driver was sitting in his front seat with a wild grin stretched across his face - the kind of grin you don’t forget. I remember nudging my wife and whispering, “That guy looks kind of crazy.” We laughed and went about our business.

Not five minutes later, we were back on the road when we spotted the same car pulled off again, alone, engine idling on the shoulder. Curious, we slowed down - and that’s when we saw them.

Four grizzlies.

They were down in the meadow, slowly moving across the frosted grass, their heavy coats catching the morning light. Behind them, Mt. Moran rose like a cathedral, watching over it all. My heart leapt. I’d dreamed of seeing a grizzly for years, but I never expected my first encounter to be this. The luck. The timing. The crazy guy who knew what we didn’t.

We stayed as long as we could, the air cold and sharp in our lungs, the bears quietly roaming, completely unbothered by our presence. I felt a mix of awe, adrenaline, and pure gratitude. Grateful that nature had offered one last gift before the long drive home. That morning reminded me why I go to places like this: to feel alive, to be surprised, and to leave with stories I never could’ve planned.

Metal Prints

Metal prints are celebrated for their unmatched durability and vibrant color presentation, delivering extraordinary sharpness and detail. The sleek, modern finish enhances the luminosity of each image, making colors pop with a radiant glow. With superior fade resistance, metal prints maintain their brilliance over time, embodying the pinnacle of photographic reproduction.

Each image is first printed to a transfer paper, then infused into Chromaluxe metal by heat and pressure. This process combined with our custom made color profiles give true to life colors and exceptional detail.

Fine Art Glicee Paper Prints

Fine art prints stand out with their exceptional quality, capturing the subtlety of shades and the intricacies of texture, ideal for reproducing artworks and photographs with artistic merit. Their archival inks and heavyweight papers promise longevity and aesthetic appeal, offering a sophisticated, gallery-worthy presentation that honors the creator's vision. All fine art prints require framing. I currently do not offer framing or mat boards for photo prints and fine art prints.

My fine art prints utilize the highest quality archival inks printed onto premium photo paper. This process ensures a sharp and true-to-life image, reflecting both the subtleties and vibrance of the original.

Canvas Prints

A museum-quality canvas ready for display. Using the giclee printing process, archival ink is sprayed onto these fine art canvases and gallery-wrapped. These prints feature subtle fine art texture with ultra-tight corners and sharp color accuracy.

All photos are printed on certified archival quality canvas that is hand-stretched in the USA around a 1.5” wood stretcher frame. Canvas includes a smooth matte finish that eliminates any unwanted glare or reflections. Canvas is a poly-cotton blend that is guaranteed to have a 100+ year display life. With no optical brighterners or synthetic fibers, this is considered the highest quality canvas available in the photo printing industry. Once wrapped, a durable display handware is attached directly to the back of the canvas. Depending on the size, this will either be a sawtooth or wire for hanging.

Recommend using a microfiber towel to remove dust or fingerprints.
