I have lived across the country and around the world, but the Grand Teton area has captured my heart. Here you can breathe freely, here you can live openly, here you can love fiercely.

Schwabacher Landing was the perfect setting for the Strong family’s portrait session—a place where the serenity of the Tetons met the vibrancy of a family whose life is anything but quiet. Taken in the heart of fall, the session was graced with golden foliage and the Snake River’s mirror-like reflections, adding a breathtaking depth to every frame. For Katelyn and Tyler, this moment was about more than capturing smiles. It was about freezing time in their beautiful chaos—five children, a blended family, and twin girls who have become the heart of their story. With grandparents Nala and Mook joining in, it was a rare opportunity to have everyone together in one frame, a true celebration of love and unity.

The late afternoon light kissed the water’s edge, enhancing the brilliance of autumn and reflecting the Tetons in the Snake River’s calm surface. The children ran through the meadow, their energy infectious, while Nala and Mook watched with a mixture of pride and joy. Each click of the camera told a story: a family that refuses to stop exploring, that thrives in the adventure of togetherness, and that embraces the beauty of blending their lives into one.

Katelyn and Tyler didn’t want these memories to live only on a screen. They invested in a custom gallery wall of metal prints for their dining area, where family meals are shared, and stories are told. Two meticulously crafted albums were gifted to Nala and Mook, each page a tribute to the legacy they helped build. For their bedroom, they chose an artisan gallery-wrapped canvas—a fine art print mounted on artist canvas and hand-painted with clear acrylic for a textured, painterly finish. It’s a masterpiece that radiates love and reminds them daily of the family they’ve nurtured.

The Power of Portraits Amid Life’s Busy Seasons

For the Strong family, these prints are not just images; they are heirlooms—proof that even when life feels full and fast-paced, there is beauty, there is love, and there is always a reason to keep exploring. Family portraits are a reminder to pause and celebrate the connections that hold us together, no matter how busy life becomes.

If you’ve been waiting for the “perfect” time to schedule your family portraits, let this be your sign. Investing in printed art transforms fleeting moments into cherished pieces that fill your home with warmth and meaning. From custom gallery walls to handcrafted canvases, these portraits become daily reminders of the love and adventure you’re building together.

What really matters is each other.

As your children grow and become who they are meant to be,  you'll want to remember who they were along the way.
