Week in Review: Hockey Photos!

 Hockey season is here again! This past weekend was the local senior team's home opener. It was great to go and visit as well as take some action shots.

 I just wanted to let everyone know that I will be taking action shots at the games I am at and you can see them after on my "Client Gallery" where you can purchase prints online if you would like!

Frontier Days 2012 {Swift Current Documentary Photographer}

   This year I was asked to be the photographer at Frontier Days 2012 in Swift Current! I showed my horses in their Open and 4-H shows for 7 years back when I was in 4-H so when they asked me to take photos I was so excited to be involved again!
   In between all the livestock shows I took candids of the midway, horse shows, trade show, rodeo and entertainment. I hope you all had a chance to check it out and if you didn't I very much recommend you check it out next year!  Everyone did a great job organizing the fair. I had a great time!
   Here are some candids from the weekend.

Kyle Fish & Game 1st Indoor Fun Archery Shoot {Kyle Sport Photographer}

 This past weekend was the 1st ever Indoor Fun Archery Shoot put on by the Kyle Fish and Game League. 

Shooters of many different age categories and skill levels took part in shooting 4 rounds of 3D targets over 2 days. Everyone did an awesome job and it was a great success. 

It was a great opportunity to come out and learn about archery from some very knowledgeable people. If you are at all interested in learning about/starting archery I would definitely recommend it! 

Great job everyone!  

Kyle Novice Hockey Tournament

2012 is starting out great! I had a couple of weeks at the start of this month to get caught up and to start getting things ready for this year. I am ready to take on 2012!
This past weekend I was asked to take photos at the Kyle Novice Hockey Tournament. I had a great time catching all the action from the end of the home bench. It was a great tournament and very entertaining!
Here are some shots from the weekend. Thanks again for having me there!
