As a local of Big Sky, I’ve spent countless hours on foot and bike exploring the trails, ridgelines, and hidden gems tucked into our mountain town. I love sharing this place with others, so I offer my clients a curated collection of my favorite spots to shoot—all within 20 minutes of Big Sky. I hope you find a connection to one of these locations that inspires freedom, play, and adventure.
