OUR MISSION
We capture, promote, exalt and celebrate a unique way of life in Wyoming – its culture and its wilderness – that reflects the spirit of the West through exceptionally telling photographs and distinctly new approaches.
As soon as you start browsing among the pages of their website, Beau de Lomenie Western Art will envelop you in its founders’ vision of the American West, displayed prominently in elegant, romantic Black and White photographs. Isabelle and Guillaume’s images allow for a glimpse back into a way of life that is rapidly disappearing; they are capturing the days of the Old West’s final glory. Looking at the photos, you can feel of the wide open spaces and big-hearted people. You are transported to where the cool western wind brushes your cheek, the silty prairie dust settles on your skin, and the smoke from a fresh hot brand fills your nostrils. Beau de Lomenie Western Art will show you the West as you’ve never felt her before.
