ONE WEEK ONLY
DEC. 1 -7

Own a piece of the Valley, with our new Limited Edition Collection, The Lost Valley.  In the heart of Rancho Marcelino experience a day's work of doctoring a cow in the open. 

From the smoke of branding fires to the dust of the open range, experience the heritage and hard work that define the cowboy lifestyle. This is the Santa Ynez Valley; more than a story—it’s a legacy.

Preserving the west one photo at a time... for those who feel it in their bones.

These images don't ask for permission. They pull you in-
Dust in your lungs, sun in your eyes, wind cutting across your face.  
They smell like leather and sweat.
You can hear the hooves hitting the dry ground and the sound of cattle bawling.
They transport you.
