2.    The color of the photos on my monitor does not look correct. Why is that?

 

There are several factors that affect the color of the photo as displayed on your monitor.

                            i.      Let me start by stating I color calibrate my monitor using special hardware and software. This gives me a very accurate color rendition. I calibrate my monitor several times a week as the color shifts easily.

                            ii.      Unless you are a photographer or graphic artist you probably do not have a color calibrated monitor.

                            iii.     Internet browsers may also affect the colors. In addition to Internet Explorer, there is Netscape, and Mozilla Firefox, to name a few.

                            iv.    In addition you may be using Microsoft Paint to view the photos, which will display them differently that Photoshop™, or any one of the other high quality graphics programs. 

3.    How do I order photos?

            The easiest way is to order directly from the Photo Shopping Cart in each gallery.

4.    I was in the rodeo but do not see my photo. What happened?

There are several possibilities.

  1. I may have missed the shot; though that does not happen often

  2. The rider is out of position

  3. The horse, bull, stock is out of position

  4. The queen has an unflattering expression

  5. The barrel is tipped over in the shot

  6. The bull and rider was blocked by a judge or bull fighter

  7. One of the assistants ran in front of the mutton buster, blocking the shot

  8. I am more than happy to check the photos that were not uploaded to the website to see if there is one of you and will send you a proof to determine if you want me to print it


 

5.    I see one photo of me on the website, are there others that are not displayed?

 

ANSWER:  More than likely…  

 

1.    If you are a barrel racer, I shoot multiple shots at each barrel;  choosing to upload only the best shots. I may have a great shot but the barrel is tipped. Some riders don’t want those shots displayed, but wouldn’t mid having their own copy. Call me if you think this is the case. If you are interested in seeing a sequence of shots for training, call me.

2.    If you are a queen I select the most flattering together with the horse position; collected, correct lead, etc.

3.    Roughstock and timed event competitors: I usually have multiple shots of your run, but only upload one or two of the best. If you want to see if I have others call me.
