I’ve been asked to teach a series of Pro Rodeo Photography classes, and I'm kicking it off with the Introductory class on Saturday, May 16, from 1:00–5:00 PM at my place in Wales, UT.
This isn’t your typical photography class. It’s fully focused on Professional Rodeo Photography—the real-world skills you need inside the arena.
Step into the arena with confidence.
This Introduction to Pro Rodeo Photography class is the first in a three-part series designed to take you from fundamentals to advanced, real-world shooting. You’ll learn how to anticipate the action, position yourself for the shot, and capture the moments that define the ride.
I am a PRCA Gold Card holder with 22 years of professional rodeo photography experience, this class delivers practical, arena-tested techniques you won’t find in a manual, or on YouTube.
Whether you're just getting started or looking to sharpen your edge, this is where it begins.
📅 May 16
🕐 1:00 PM – 5:00 PM
💲 $150 per person

Text or email me with any questions about reserving a spot.
