More Cowgirls and Booty Kickin' Boots

Cowgirls Continued......
Winter is boring, blah and requires time spent indoors. The barn time gets limited and we get bored! Although this is the mildest winter I can recall in all my memory, it's still dark early and limits time in the saddle.  Here is a continuation of our mid-winter western theme days, with a little creative artistic twist.







Boots are not just a fashion statement. Boots are a reflection of your personality, they are essential to your livelihood. Every pair is carefully selected to reflect your personality to fit your job.  Boots carry you through the dirt, the mud and log all the miles with you on your journey! A pair of boots can tell the story of your travels. A good pair of boots are worn to the sole. It is a sad day when you part with a pair. Ohhhh the stories a girl's boots could tell.

It's a Cowgirl Thing

So what do you do in the middle of winter when it's too cold to hang out in the barn, or on the trail or playing in the dust chasing cans with the horses? Well, obviously, turn the studio into a warm western retreat and round-up some cutie cowgirls over to take some pictures! It was awesome to turn my two passions - horses and photography into a few FUN creative hours.

We even managed to find us some cowboys, but that's a different day. :)

I got so many awesome pictures! I've decided to showcase some different edits from this set. It was so much fun to step outside of the box just a little and try some different looks. 

Here is one that was transformed into a painting look. 




This is an example of what can happen when you crawl on the floor with lights and reflectors to get the light to drop just a little different. (Of course a pretty girl in cowboy boots with gorgeous eyes helps!) 

The night of this session, we didn't only get one, but two pretty girls.  Twins even Better!  Their Momma and Daddy know how to make some pretty girls!



Thanks girls! You Rock!!

More girls to come. This is only the beginning..... and I'm not lying about the Cowboys either!
