Snap Incredible Photos Across Town Square
Town Square in Jackson Hole is a must-visit for holiday photo opportunities when you’re looking for a backdrop that’s sparkling, festive, and fun! All year long, Town Square is a hub for great dining and shopping and it’s often where many of Jackson Hole’s fan-favorite annual events are hosted too. Over the holidays, Town Square comes to life in illuminating seasonal style as shops and restaurants get decked out in their Christmas best complete with lights, wreaths, bows, ornaments, and beyond. When you want to get an iconic family holiday photo in Jackson Hole, you’ll want to be sure to get your crew set up in front of one of the four elk antler arches that adorn Town Square and are covered in twinkling lights this time of year. If you’re more in the mood to take a traditional photo with Santa, he’ll be visiting Town Square’s Stage Stop Building every evening between 5:00 pm and 7:00 pm starting in mid-December through Christmas. After you’ve taken your photo, you can enjoy the hot chocolate and cookies that are passed around as well!
Gather the Family in Front of the Moulton Barn
Jackson Hole is loved for its rustic-chic charm and when you want to infuse that into your holiday photo backdrop, be sure to make your way to the Moulton Barn this holiday season. Integrated into the area known as Mormon Row, this historic barn offers up a beautiful background for a holiday-inspired photo. It’s long been a symbol of Jackson Hole’s rich history, and it’s a great feature to incorporate in your photographic memories of your holiday stay.
Capture the Holiday Moment at Schwabacher’s Landing
For many wintertime travelers, a trip to Jackson Hole is a chance to get out and explore fascinating places like Grand Teton National Park when they’re covered in glittering snow. The holidays are no exception and when you’re here this time of year, be sure to grab your camera and head this way with a focus on making time for a stop at Schwabacher’s Landing. This is a top photo stop in the park in all seasons and in the wintertime, it comes with some particularly dramatic results. When you gather your traveling crew at Schwabacher’s Landing, you’ll have not one but two Teton Mountain ranges working as your scenic backdrop. The effect is gorgeous and makes for a one-of-a-kind holiday photo with every click of the camera.
