Ok, Wow, We now have put the 1st 2009 OJRA Rodeo under our belt's. And as far as I can see it went great... Well, except it was not a night that will go down in the history books as far as my photography is concerned. Man it was dark and dusty in there... But I did come out with a few keepers.
Speaking of history books, Emily Piazza has got her self into one as the first girl in the OJRA to rope in the coed calf roping, ( please correct me if I'm wrong ) Way to go Emily!!!
I am going to be doing things a little different this year, First of all I will not be editing photos before I upload them to my website. Last year I was shooting 1200 to 1500 photos on a saturday night, and it would take me 5 to 7 days to get them all edited and uploaded to the site, man, that was killing me. So, on the one hand I'm not crazy about everyone seeing unedited photos, But on the other hand I'm going to try and get over it... So, What does this mean for you, the customer? Well, it means that now you will order your photos just like always. But, There will be a small waiting period between the time you order your photos and when they are printed. That period between ordering and printing will be when I edit the photos. I will try setting the waiting period to 3 days, but if I get your photos edited the same day as you order then your photos will be printed as always, so more than likely you will not even notice the delay. So really the only difference to you will be just that you are looking at unedited photos on my website instead of edited. So Please forgive all of the red eye, off balance color, cropping, and anything else that can go wrong when shooting a rodeo, Because I will still be fixing all of those things just like always. And remember if you did not get any good photos of yourself this time, there are a lot of rodeo's to go yet this year. I'm positive we will get them eventually.
But doing it this way will also allow me more time to properly edit your photos.
I will be using this blog as a way to communicate with everyone, and you can still e-mail me, you can find my e-mail address on this blog and on my website. Also I would like to offer you the opportunity to post your own articles or info here on my blog. So if you have any information that you would like to get out to everyone just give me a holler and we will see about getting it posted.
And, as always I am looking for any helpful suggestions for articles or just anything that you would like to see me change. And please keep those comments coming.
See You at the Next Rodeo
April 14th Bentonville
