I think this part of the trip was one of my favorite days.  We headed out from Cody, Wyoming over to Powell to see the wild mustangs at the Pryor Mountain Mustang Center.  There is a lower drive that you can take and sometimes you can see a band if they are moving.  Someone told […]

Spartan was super special to Andrea.  We did a session with her and Spartan so she could remember his spunky personality and how much of a ham he is for the camera.  With old age it was time for him to go, but meeting him he sure was a free spirit. I love seeing the […]

Taylor Farm Ropings are always a blast.  They have a beautiful arena with a gorgeous mountain backdrop!  The action was a lot of fun and taking pictures of ropings is always really cool. Here are a few highlights from the roping.

Lyza and Josie were such fun models for their photoshoot.  We kind of planned it on a whim and they both ended up with the same dress which was really cute.  Dolly and Gus were troopers putting up with these two crazy little girls but it was totally worth it to get some fun pictures […]
