Last month, while scrolling through Facebook, I came across a post from a friend—an equestrian and performer—who had just wrapped up her annual creative photo shoot with her equine partner. She shared the results, but it was clear she wasn’t completely satisfied with the final outcome.
Here’s the thing: she had a fantastic concept and a solid base image to work from. The potential was absolutely there. She poured her heart into the final product, but the image needed a more practiced touch to truly bring her vision to life.
Just as the golden light of summer settles in and my photography calendar hits full tilt—packed with sessions, edits, and travel—I’m also packing up my life and moving.
This past winter, my niece began playing the flute in her school band. As the school year wrapped up, the students held a Spring concert, with each grade level taking the stage to perform.
When it comes to photographing sports—whether it's fast-paced rodeo action, high school football, or indoor arena events—there's one lens I reach for every single time: the Canon 70-200mm f/2.8L. It’s not just my favorite sports lens; it’s a workhorse that consistently delivers, no matter the lighting or location.
The May cattle sort came with its fair share of challenges—but also a few unexpected gems. Among them? A group of incredibly cute calves who turned out to be excellent subjects during what ended up being a surprisingly slow-paced day.
