Emily contacted me and asked if we could do a surprise black background portrait session with her and her sisters horse.  She wanted to surprise her sister on her wedding day with her retired mare.  I had to wait a little while to post them until their wedding day, but her sister loved them and […]

During the winter time I love to shoot some Team Ropings for fun.  It’s always a blast catching up with everyone and meeting new people! Here are a few fun shots from the team roping.

Western Lifestyle Jessie is one of my best friends and I wanted to spend the afternoon hanging out with her and Hadley.  Jessie is a very accomplished barrel racer and has been barrel racing since before she could walk.  Her little girl Hadley is following right in her footsteps and it’s the sweetest thing ever.  […]

Rachel asked me to come over and take a few pictures of her filly, Fancy, so she could get her registered for her papers.  Lyza went along with me and she already has a love for horses, but the problem is she is not scared of them at all.  She will take off running up […]

NEW NEW NEW I am working on a new website and I wanted to do a  new behind the scenes video that shows what it is like to work with me and why I am so passionate about equine photography.  Bailey came to the farm to film it for me and she was so much […]

Dewey Minda got Dewey and has had him for many years.  When she was describing him to me in the questionnaire I sent to her before the session he sounded like a dream horse.  Dewey was going to live with some of Minda’s good friends to start to teach little kids to learn how to […]

Team Roping A long with equine and western photography I love to shoot rodeos and ropings.  There is a local arena called H&H Arena and they have several ropings and rodeos every year and I love to go and spend the day meeting new people, seeing old friends, and photographing some cowboys and cowgirls.  Here […]

Equine Photo Shoot I first met Heather of  555 Photography when she was looking for a second shooter for a 4 day horse show. I drove four hours to shoot a show with someone that I had ever met before but it was totally worth it.  For the past three or four years we have […]

Sunrise Equine Session I love doing sunrise shoots because the morning light is so beautiful.  I was so excited when Joey agreed to do a shoot.  We literally started at 6am and it was freezing cold but it was totally worth it! We walked across the road with two horses, a dog, and all of […]

The Western Way Podcast As many of you might know or not I started a podcast called The Western Way Podcast.  I wanted a place to share about people in the western lifestyle that have amazing stories to tell.  I love to talk a lot and I love the western way of life so I […]

Farm Session Jessie and her family are always so much fun.  Jessie is a super creative person and is killing it with her photography also.  Her new idea was to do a sunset farm session with their cows up on the ridge at sunset and of course I jumped with excitement because Jessie never disappoints. […]

Equine Session Emily was so excited about her equine session.  She has some gorgeous horses and beautiful farm and I couldn’t wait to get to her place and start shooting.  They have a barn on their property that is over 100 years old that her grandparents have restored.  They now use it for small weddings, […]

For the month of March, CDPhotog had his monthly photography competition.  This month we had to use a wide angle lens and capture some kind of action without zooming in but getting up close and personal with the action.  It was a little scary being 8 months pregnant and having Jessie spin super fast circles […]

AQHA Amateur Heading World Champion MJ Razor Wire was the AQHA Amateur Heading World Champion in 2018.  This was a title that Rodney had been working for, for many years.  It has been a lot of long nights, traveling, and riding on days where you don’t feel like saddling up. It has been good days […]

One thing that I love seeing is people reach their goals.  I love people that set HUGE goals and then go after them like they are a crazy person.  Throwing everything in but the kitchen sink to get there! So this year I wanted to pick a few people to follow behind the scenes throughout […]

This is Part 3 of 12 Passion Project posts that i will be sharing for 2018.  This series was started by a statement that I heard from a young person referring to how people that are living their dreams were an overnight success.  It really fueled me to step deep and interview people that are […]
