Once your artwork arrives, a lot of people wonder how to take care of it. The good news is that it is usually pretty simple. A little care goes a long way.

Moisture, rough cleaning, and big temperature swings are not your friends.

Read MoreI have photographed Bria many times over the years, and she has been in front of my camera for all kinds of sessions. From portraits with the Equestrians of Color Project, to a cover image for Western Life Today, to helping model at Florida photography workshops, and even stepping in when I needed someone to model horse tack for brands, Bria has always been someone I can count on.

I read Western Horseman as a kid, and like so many horse girls, I looked through those pages with a lot of admiration for the western world, the horses, the people, and the stories that came with it. So to be recognized by a publication I grew up reading is not something I take lightly. It means a lot.

Read MoreThis recent session with Leah, founder of The Unspoken Cycle, was a beautiful blend of intention, purpose, and horses… which, let’s be honest, is right up my alley.
