I had a great opportunity to spend a weekend following a bullrider around with my camera. Aaron Miller and his lady Missy invited into their home for 2 days and nights. They really showed me some hospitality and opened their lives up to my camera.

The first night I didn’t get a lot of great rodeo shots. The venue was very dark and sort of cramped. Aaron didn’t score on the bull, he was thrown and though limping he was still pretty charged. I did enjoy an evening out with them at a local bar and there I took some shots of the two of them interacting.

The second night was at the Sundance Arena. It was much brighter and had a lot more room to maneuver around. I was also happy to see just how crowded and lively these shows are. My focus was on Aaron but there were a LOT of events throughout the night. I could have one giant gallery here if my photo essay was on the entire event!
