Outlaw Night

Description:  Female Outlaws ride underneath a moonlit landscape of Live Oaks within Hill Country Texas. This image was captured throughout a 250 - hour pursuit of the Total Solar Eclipse on April 8th 2024. The project began in January 2024 when the final concept came to mind. I envisioned a surreal western chase scene, a powerful visual and an ode to a foregone era filled with cowboys, outlaws, and the settling of the west. A juxtaposition of culture during that period, I cast the female riders as the outlaws, painting a unique picture and allowing exploration within the viewers imagination. Within this photograph, Lance and Stephanie Morris chase their twin daughters Adele and Baker, also a planned metaphor of rebellious youth, with parents giving their children freedom to take the reigns and ride off into the sunset.   Having never been to Texas, or familiar with local land owners or equestrians, it took investigative reporting and a small miracle for all the puzzle pieces to align. From roughly 30 conversations and dozens of hours of research, to connecting with two private groups in March on a separate scouting trip, this project took everything I had in me. This image was captured on the first night of test shooting with the Morris family and their horses, a planned consolation image given inclement weather on April 8th during the 4min and 23 seconds of Totality.
