This is the second series of photos from the California Rodeo held in Salinas. Believe it or not, this Rodeo has been taking place longer than the Tour de France. Next year will be the Centennial.
I shot this work Lure Advertising. Of course it will look great in my portfolio too and to share with you all. If they love some of my work you may see it in some print advertisement and marketing material for next year's centennial Rodeo.
I had such a great time shooting, met some other great photographers, and just had a great weekend all around. We call it Big Week here, and it is BIG!

Enjoy and leave me some comments below.

Chanti

Here are a few teasers from my recent shoot with Chanti, a soon to be senior. Chanti was referred to me by Caitlin who I just shot recently and also came along to assist me with Chanti. Chanti was great and relaxed real quick and let the inner model out. Great work Chanti, and have a great senior year...
