Photography Class

This weekend I went to Rapid City for a Larry Larson Photography Clinic.

This man is amazing in what he can do with horses and how to show their best features.

I learned so much and met some really neat people. Here are a few of my pictures.

HA HA...these were my BEFORE shots BEFORE the clinic....I thought they were okay. Boy did I have alot to learn~!

WOW...what a difference. I now know so much more than a few days ago.

The girls that rode looked so neat in their outfits!

such beautiful details

this girl's mother makes all her show outfits. She made this one!

And the best part about the whole trip...

Blake and Mike came on Saturday to see me...

visiting Bear Country was on the agenda...

It was a great weekend. Grady got to have a sleepover with Grandpa and Grandma Drayton. Blake got some quality time with just Dad and Mom. A great Mother's Day!
