Wild Castilleja Photography

Wild Castilleja Photography Photographer for the wild and adventurous My home, the place where I feel grounded, has always been where things are a little more wild.

The air is fresh, there’s the bellow of a cow in the distance and the change of seasons dictate the type of work that needs to be done. This is the life that has shaped me. A once wild, brown-eyed girl running barefoot between her home and ranch, now mother and wife with a thirst to carry on the legacy started many decades ago and tell the story of this lifestyle through a lens. While I raise my s

on on the ranch that I grew up on, I love to travel to other ranches to capture and preserve their stories as well for future generations to come.

I can’t help but share photos of this beautiful lady and her growing family. She had hoped that we could shoot in this field and for the first time ever, it worked out. It’s usually standing water or no flowers but we got “dry” ground and beautiful flowers.

One special kid right here, although I don’t know if I can call him a kid anymore since he towers over me and laughs at my vertical challenges. When he started working at the ranch he wasn’t a whole lot bigger than me. But it has been an honor to watch him grow. I don’t know many adults my age that have the work ethic that Hunter has. Combine that with his out of this world intelligence, he’s going to go so far and I can’t wait to witness his journey and see where it takes him.

I'm not doing many shoots right now during this season of my life but I sure am glad that I get to capture these beautiful ladies as they spend their spring and summer representing their communities. If you see them around, let them know how awesome they are!

Kricket is at it again playing photographer for me, this time capturing the day to day of what work looks like at the ranch for me. I sure do appreciate her taking the time to take these photos and helping me with the work along the way!

I’m backkkkkkkkk!!!!!!

I took my camera down to the ranch on my day off and just shot for fun until I was put to work. It feels so good to create again.

In case I have had you wondering, I’m still here!! Life is still pulling me different directions, but I get to get out and shoot here and there. My first senior session of this year and 9th paid shoot of 2024, which feels crazy, but hey, that’s life. This last year has really taught me to just go with the flow and be flexible. My life has no schedule to it. It’s a day by day and ever changing. It was a really nice break to just spend one hour laughing and finding creativity and composition again in something that I truly love to do.

This weekend I shot my last big wedding. I stopped taking them on after 2022, but for this bride, she was my exception. I’ve known her for half her life. I watched her grow up year after year at her great grandma Ellen’s house. She has always been something special. Her whole family became a second family to me when I moved to Centerville. Because of this, I have never cried so much at a wedding before. It was so incredibly special to be a part of it and I, one hundred percent, agree with you Shureenia. Your mom would have been so happy that I was the one taking your wedding photos.

I was able to capture part of a branding this weekend in a little different context. These two probably smell like cows and/or horses 95% of the time, so what better way to capture some engagement photos than to incorporate their lifestyle into them.
