TRAVELING TRUNK PHOTO SHOOT AT THE HISTORIC FORT WORTH STOCK YARDS
A couple weeks back I was honored to photograph the group Traveling Trunk at the Fort Worth Stock Yards. I’ve known Holly (one of the members) just about forever, and it was great getting to know fellow group members Nick and Bryce (Holly’s husband). Traveling Trunk is a group of performers who strive to honor God and share the love of Christ. They do this through mediums such as drama, music, comedy and poetry. It’s pretty refreshing to see a comedy group that can genuinely make people laugh without being dirty or cussing every other word. I’ve been to a few comedy shows and the clean ones make me laugh just as much as any other, but without that dirty, “I need to take a shower” feeling afterward. Traveling Trunk is going to do great, I can’t wait to see where they will take this gift God has given them!
Our session was really laid back and fun. For a comedy group you get to do a lot of goofy poses which really lightens the mood quickly and makes for great pictures. We shot all over the Fort Worth Stock Yards, from the historic “Niles City” on the outskirts to a creepy parking garage behind the White Elephant. The yearly Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo had just started so getting around to a secluded spot was a challenge. We even had to park in the mud where all the horse trailers were to avoid paying for parking, lol.
Here are some of my favorite shots from our session. You guys were a blast!
