XP RANCH PHOTOGRAPHY

XP RANCH PHOTOGRAPHY Professional Photography specializing in Farm, Ranch, Stockdogs, Horses, Kids and Families. Call us. My name is Lori Herbel. I prefer it that way.

I wasn't born with a camera in my hand, but I grabbed one as soon as I could! I became interested in photography at a fairly young age. My older brother developed my black and white pictures in his basement darkroom. My subjects were whatever would stand still in front of me (and a few things that wouldn't). Mostly horses and dogs, and other kids. Funny, these remain my favorite subjects some 40 y

ears later. My first "serious" camera was purchased for me by my wonderful husband, in December of 1981, for my 20th birthday. It was a Canon SLR and I felt like I had just won the lottery. I held an amazing piece of machinery in my hand, and it was both wonderful and scary at the same time. It had so much potential, could I step up my game to unlock that potential? The first image I captured with that camera is still burned into my memory. We were at the National Finals Rodeo in Oklahoma City. Since that time, I have taken hundreds of thousands of images. For myself, for my family, for friends, books and magazines, and as editor of the local newspaper and two national magazines. I always see my world through a lens, even when I'm not holding a camera. I have always been the one behind the camera. Thank you to my husband and partner, Kent, who is the major reason I am able to do what I do. He is my best friend, my biggest supporter and in charge of all things technical when it comes to equipment. Me, I just take pictures. :-) I hope you enjoy my photographs as much as I love taking them. Lori Herbel
