Web Launch: Certified Oklahoma Bred Association

Proud to share the official launch of the Certified Oklahoma Bred Association (COBA) website, today!

This site provides a home for all relevant documents for the nonprofit association's use and has beautiful parallax scrolling of some unbelievable Oklahoma-bred hog ring shots – from ShowChampions Photography {photographer Alicia Castaneda} and the Oklahoma Youth Expo  {photographer J.D. Rosman}.

It features a responsive breeder directory, utilizing an Airtable database, sorting data based on any of the featured information. 

The site also has news and event features, with easily sharable options for social media and saving directly to your calendar. 

This content-forward, responsive site is optimized for various devices, and is ideal for users with varying internet speeds and user experience levels.

Gert Calves Are Adorable.

With their big ears and gap teeth, baby calves are, in general, adorable. 

This guy . . .  in all his ginger goodness, maybe breaks the mold. 

A purebred Santa Gertrudis shot at Reynolds Prairie View Farms near Warner, Oklahoma; I think he just wanted his moment in the spotlight. Even though momma kept urging him to leave as I scooted closer, he just kept those big ears cocked and curious. 

Okay. So he tried to hide for a second. 

Happy Thanksgiving from these pretty ears, y'all. 

Meet the Lyles | Jessica + Chris

Jessica and Chris made it official in Vegas this summer, and shortly thereafter, her mom claimed an SPC session at a livestock show benefit silent auction. 

Fate, y'all. And ALL the fun. 

Jess and I've known each other since our early 4-H days; and she's now a fantastic masseuse and BOSS spa owner – Bold Creek Spa, Elgin. Visit her ... but call first ... and no, she's not sponsoring this post. ;-)

Samantha | Porum '18

Y'all.

Can we all just say a collective "amen" for the gorgeousness that is Samantha? Whew. Every pose she hit was perfect, and, truth be told, I'm super jealous of her natural tendencies in front of the lens.

Our sunset was quality, and I cannot wait for our second session next spring.

You are killing your senior year, dear. Can't wait to see what the future holds for you!

Britt + Blair

Warning: adorable tiny human alert. 

Britt and Blair are almost too cute to handle. And, boy, I love when I get to hang with them: they're super sweet, and only a little ornery. ;-)

Engagement: Holly + Colton

I have to say . . . I have had the cutest, in-love, and flat-out FUN couples show up for sessions. Holly and Colton are no exception. 

Another best-friend's-kid-sister, I've known Holly for ages. Getting to capture this obvious love . . . well, sometimes words fail me. It's the best. 

My favorite part? Hearing how they met, and watching {in awe} as Colton pulled a receipt out of his wallet with Holly's phone number. I may have swooned a little. 

November can't come quick enough.
