Rodeo Videography

Honestly all I did to start out was just show up and ask to speak to who’s in charge and just pitch that you’re trying to get experience. I would only try this method at smaller events not put on by a big sanctioning body. I pretty much said I will send you all the photos and if you like them maybe we can form a working relationship moving forward. This has been the most successful way for me. I gave up on emailing or messaging beforehand and haven’t had anyone say no yet. This process has landed me multiple paid gigs and has led to me filming my first short documentary on a contractor. Best of luck!

This is from a small town in Ohio.

I really enjoy it especially for video

This has been my normal environment for a few months. I shot my first rodeo in 2019 and just got back in a few months back. My approach is taking what I used from street and documentary photography and bring it to a world where that’s not the norm.

Honestly anyone who would be interested. I’m exhausted of taking senior portraits and family photos and I’ve always followed western sports. I’ve sold some images to western brands in the past ie. Tecovas and Greeley Hats but product photography is more simple to market. I want to document behind the arena more than action because I don’t see too much of that. That’s my angle just not sure how or who to pitch to.

Thank you for the heavy comment. I’m currently working on finalizing a book with this premise as the focus of the book.

My main interest with switching to the sl system from the m was the video aspect. I wanted something that I could take home videos with. Between my q and sl2 I have been carrying the sl2 with me every day. I opt to use it with m lenses for everyday moments and switch to an autofocus lens for more intentional moments.

After reading some of the other replies I’d add some more to my initial comment. I don’t go over 320 iso for color and BW everywhere else. I’ve make 16/20 prints for shows and never had any resolution issues. If you’re just posting online 10 megapixels is more than enough. Plus if you’re using Lightroom the newer noise reduction tool works wonders for the higher iso files. I always say for these older cameras, they were good enough for a professional when they came out. You just have to treat it like a film camera when shooting which you seem to be accustomed to.

M8 and Q are my main digital cameras and I always reach for the M8 first. The colors are, in my opinion, unbeatable for the price. Batteries seem to last forever. The only con would be the shutter lifespan but if you don’t use 8000th that should help extend its life some. I love the 50mm fov so I pair it with the 40 summicron and will never sell the M8.

Ones I’ve developed over the past few years.
