One of my favorite shows! The people, atmosphere and livestock are top notch. South East Iowa's county fair champions come together for a one night showdown to see who's the best.

louisa county fair
My county fair, back where it all started. The first fair to give me the opportunity to try my hand at photographing livestock shows. Proud to say I have been picturing the Louisa County Fair since 2018. Since then I've acquired a team and photographed so many memories.

I got the opportunity to start photographing the South East Iowa Final Drive in 2018. Every year the show is great and the staff is even better. A night you don't want to miss at the end of July!

Lee County is home to some of my favorite people. Their fair starts our country fair run. The people are always welcoming and make it a joy to spend the week at their fair.

I look forward to this show every year. Getting to branch out of Iowa into a neighboring state is so fun. I love getting to make connections with new people as well as catch up with ones from years past.

It's no secret I shoot a lot of cattle shows. When I got the call to do a pig show, I was all about it! Getting to take pig ring shots are some of my absolute favorties.

The livesotck Experience
When you work with Bewetiful Moments Photography on show day, you'll get more than just a photographer. You'll get a team who truly cares and will capture EVERY detail. There is no moment too small.
We know what a struggle show day can be. Rushing to the wash rack, getting animals dried and fit all while making sure the showman is in tip top shape. Oh, and don't forget that exhibitor number. With all of that who has time to worry about taking pictures? Leave that job to us.
For some families, the best moment is getting the champion slap, for others it was a victory to make it to your class on time. No matter the win, we will be sure to capture it.
from the picture pen to backdrop, we have you covered.

1. Say Hello
2. Book
Once I reach out we will get all the important things checked off.
If you are booking a show we will discuss all the things you are wanting for your show, what you would like covered, dates, times etc. If you are able to send a schedule of show/shows that would be great.
If you are booking sale pictures we will discuss all the details. What specie, how many head, if you would also like videos etc.
For sale pictures please have date and time in mind. I try to be as flexible as possible. I will also need to know the date you are needing photos returned to you by.
3. Show Day/ Picture Day
When show day arrives the team and I will have everything covered. We'll arrive early to get around the grounds shots as well as a lay of the land. We will come find the show manager as well to make sure everything is still right with the schedule.
When picture day arrives, we'll be ready to rock and roll. If you happen to be running behind, please communicate with me ahead of time if possible. I'll make sure to get pictures/videos of everything you are needing. I will also throw in some behind the scenes of you and your crew as well.
4. Receive Your Gallery
My team and I will have all pictures posted from each show within three days of the show concluding. As we get galleries finished, we will make posts on social media letting everyone know they are ready. Please go share them on your social media accounts as well.
Once sale pictures are concluded I will get them back to you as soon as possible. I will email you the link to your gallery as well as the download pin. You can then download the pictures to send where they are needed.
From the wash rack to the backdrop our team will have you covered on show day.
Wether it's an open show or country fair all the hard work deserves to be captured for the kiddos.

I chose Kortney because of how open and willing she was to my ideas. I got to take the pictures how I wanted and she really helped me know what to do throughout each photo. I have also had many photos already taken by Kortney with my livestock and because of that I already knew that she was going to do an amazing job adjusting to working with my horse.

We had Bewetiful Moments Photography take my senior session photos and could not be more happy with how the photos turned out! Before choosing, we looked around at different places and their work and liked the quality of Kortney’s pictures. She was super sweet and very flexible with us on time and days for the pictures. I thought she was very easy to work with and overall had a great time! We were able to dish off of each other’s ideas and the pictures were sent back to us within a very good time and looked great!
Ashlee Farrier
Truly thankful that our paths crossed at a pig show backdrop years ago! Kortney is easy to work with and comfortable around livestock. We enjoy doing family pictures with our livestock which is sometimes unpredictable but Kortney is always patient and understanding. We have some of the best photos on our walls because of Kortney!
When it came time to schedule senior pictures, there was no question who we wanted to take them. Kortney didn't bat an eye at any of our crazy ideas and was excited to make them happen! She happily met us in the early morning hours at the state fair to get the perfect pictures that captured our daughter in one of her favorite places.

I chose Kortney for my senior sessions because I knew that she would capture what I truly love to do. She made the session feel comfortable and truly brought a true smile to my face in all of the moments she captured. I loved that she always had a different vision for each location spot so that pictures didn’t feel repetitive. Kortney is truly the best and I can’t wait to work with her throughout the rest of my senior year!
