01 / WesternJackson Hole · Wyoming · Mountain West

Western.

Weather, character, distance and enough restraint to leave the place alone.

This is not a costume department. It is a way of looking at people and country that already know who they are.

The edit

Ranch light. Open country. Dust on denim. A little distance between the camera and the performance.

The West does not need help looking Western.

The rule

If the hat, horse or mountain is doing all the work, the photograph is not.

Character first. Geography second. Cliché nowhere.
