Royal Tine Images Inc. Is a photographic partnership between 7 of the western US finest nature photographers and some guy from Florida. Our website is divided into two sections, one that showcases our stock photo library and another that showcases images available for use as fine art prints.

Why the name "Royal Tine Images"?The Rocky Mountain elk or "wapiti" in the Shoshone language, is a symbol of the Rocky Mountain West. As one of our favorite photographic subjects we chose the name "Royal Tine Images" as the royal tine is the 4th and longest point (known as the Royal Point) on a bull elk's antler. We hold the elk in high esteem and the western mountains in September would not be the same without the haunting bugle of the bull elk. In keeping with this symbol of the west we adopted the name as our images and photographic style holds the same spirit of freedom and wildness.
