Forest Chaput de Saintonge

Software & Gear Specialist

Hi, I’m Forest Chaput de Saintonge. 👋

I’m the Director of Rocky Mountain School of Photography, and run the school alongside my wife, Sarah. I spend most of my days “steering the ship” of RMSP forward, helping students meet their goals, discovering new tech, and, well … actually running the business!

In my free time, I also serve as a 2024 Adobe Lightroom Advisory Board Member, a speaker at the Night Photo Summit, and a lecturer at Atlas Obscura and B&H Event Space.

When I’m not at RMSP, I love hanging out with my kids, building things, weight lifting, and astrophotography. In fact, I’m a huge astronomy nerd, hold a degree in astrophysics, and I’m even an alumni of the MINERVA Exoplanet Observatory Team! (Can you tell I love space? 🔭)

It’s a pleasure to meet you. Drop me a line and say hello!

Where to next?
