Horses and Cowboys

April 28 - May 2, 2010

The Wild West’s cowboy past conjures up visions of wranglers in dusty jeans and jangling spurs, herding livestock through desert arroyos studded with magnificent saguaros. Capture these classic scenes of Americana at the picturesque White Stallion Ranch. The property spreads across 3,000 scenic acres of Sonoran Desert bordering Saguaro National Park near Tucson. In this relaxed setting of bubbling fountains, cactus blossoms, chile ristras and rustic wagon wheels, you’ll have outstanding opportunities to photograph working cowboys up close. Ranch work activity includes cattle penning, horse drives, barrel racing and small-arena rodeo events.

With his extensive background in photojournalism, Arizona Highways Photo Editor Jeff Kida will also help you craft remarkable photos of cowboys and cowgirls at work around the ranch during both spontaneous and planned portrait activities.
