🎡& that's a wrap, Lawrence County! ❤️
📸 22,278 photos later.....& 2025 is complete!
In shooting "THE FAIR" over the past 5 years (officially, 5 but really more than that) I have literally watched these kids grow up in the Show Ring.
Now as adults, they still find their way back to The Fair each summer and now bringing their little ones and keeping the love of the fair tradition going!
It's so much more than just rides, yummy fair food and yes, (many) derbies.....
It's families spending the week together, making memories with friends and fellow showmen, coming together as a community to have some fun in the summertime.
Speaking of community- it literally takes a village to make this fair successful year after year! From the grounds crew, Johnny cleaning up for us, the gate crew, our guys on the equipment- all of the Fairboard members & family members who work hard all week (and weeks leading up to the fair!) and run on very little sleep all week......to all of the 4-H & FFA advisors, leaders, kids, mentors and volunteers....it simply wouldn't be the best without EACH of you.
So thank you to everyone who loves this crazy Fair week like we all do....😅😍🎡❤️
I hope I have shared a little bit of everything and that you can enjoy a glimpse into what makes this FAIR special....& that's simply, THE PEOPLE!
Until next year- signing off with a FEW of my favorite shots from Fair Week 2025!
