I had been teaching myself photography.

It never occurred to me that I was going to have to talk to a camera. I don't know if I can do this.

I had been teaching myself photography.

I love black leggings with cowboy (I mean cowgirl!) boots, and other-slightly less trendy-things like my boys' Wrangler jeans and my husband's worn deerskin work gloves. I love most things country, because country, to me, is home.

I'm a writer and a photographer - I'm totally aware that doesn't always translate to TV.

As The Pioneer Woman has grown and the revenue has grown, the prizes keep getting better, and that certainly feels good.

I'm a thirty-something ranch wife, mother of four, moderately agoraphobic middle child who grew up on a golf course in the city.
