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!
