Farm & Ranch photographer -- helping you tell your agriculture story to future generations & the public

Bringing you keepsakes to pass on to future generations

Hey there, I'm Caleigh.

The reason that I love capturing moments in photos is that there's nothing I cherish more than looking through old family photos-seeing my grandparents grow up, watching my parents fall in love, capturing the moments of the people around us while we still can.

Getting photos taken can be super fun - getting to dress up, go on an adventure, be silly and react to my quirky prompts and activities instead of still poses.

It's also not only fun and exciting to share these photos with friends and family and post on social media, but they also provide keepsakes for future generations.

I try to keep my sessions reasonably priced, so that you can capture all of the moments in life that are special -- engagements, weddings, maternity, newborn, family, holidays, etc.

This also goes for farming and ranching which is where my passion lies in addition to photography. How neat would it be to have your very own coffee table book of your farm or ranch legacy -- calving, branding, fall works, planting, harvest, etc.?

Let me help you document your legacy.

"Pictures don't grow up. Pictures never change. They're frozen there forever in the moments they were made. They don't fall out of love. They don't change their minds. They won't ever get sick and leave hurting hearts behind. They say there ain't no stopping the hands of time, but that ain't true. That's what pictures do." -Josh Grider

My specialty is in the details


I love capturing all of the details and special candid moments, especially on your wedding day.

Some photographers get a list of the photos you want on your wedding day and stick purely to that, but in my experience the candid moments are some of the most cherished.


While in a best friend's wedding years ago, us bridesmaids were standing in line waiting to make our entrance down the aisle and the father of the bride came by and high fived us all. The photographers were standing right there watching and didn't pick up their camera to take a picture of that moment.

I couldn't understand why they didn't care to capture the little moments like that and vowed I would be different.


Dad's first look. The high fives. The tears. Mom buttoning up the dress.

I'll be there for all of it.
