Photographing the Wild West
It is strange to not have a rodeo on Memorial Day weekend but we still found some action close to home, a ranch sorting! Over the winter our 2022 calves have been hired as the sorting stock for the Southwest Colorado Ranch Sorting Association clinics, practices and jackpots. We have really enjoyed getting to put...

I have been home for two weeks! I know, crazy, but I have been keeping busy with scheduled photos sessions and the usual ranch work. The irrigation has come on finally here in Colorado which means we are in busy season. The water has torn down banks, over flowed ditches and best of all, watered... Continue Reading →

There are some moments you catch so perfectly that you just have to admire them a little longer than others. This was such a fun shoot at Mountain Sky Ranch in Emigrant, Montana. I got to enjoy a beautiful view and watch what the wranglers do in their off time.
I wish I could travel back in time. To the time where there were only cowboys roaming the land. This man, who was also pictured in A Peek into the Cowboy Lifestyle reminds me of those times. I hope this lifestyle never dies because there is so much to love about it.
Not every swing is a catch but we do know we can always coil our rope back up and build another loop. From Legit Outdoors I would like to wish everyone a Happy New Year. 2017 has been great but 2018 can only be better. This new year holds more beautiful adventures, pictures and stories...
