Amy Raab

Amy Raab began her career as a photographer at a chain of newspapers in Boston, Massachusetts, after graduating from the University of Vermont in 1989. In her time at the paper, Amy discovered the thrill of being a photojournalist. Mentored and inspired by her colleagues who were passionate photojournalists shooting weddings and long-term personal projects on the side, Amy began her career in wedding photojournalism.

Wanting to explore the American West with her camera while pursuing a passion for horses and an urge to return to a society of old-fashioned values as she had experienced in Vermont, Amy moved to Jackson Hole, Wyoming. She worked and lived on ranches, capturing the connection between ranchers, their livestock, and the land; documenting a rugged yet romantic lifestyle threatened with extinction.

After a recent year-and-a-half-long battle with breast cancer and a new perspective, Amy has now set her sights on making a living as an artist by finding the beauty in life and in the many adventures that await!
