Welcome to the page that answers the question...
WHY is your name
One Ton Photography
The love of drafts has been with
me since I was a little girl!
But until you have spent time with them or actually own one... you can't imagine how beautiful and FUN
these Gentle Giants can be!
In 2008, I attended my first draft show of the Texas Draft Horse & Mule Association.
I was sharing photos with my "Draft Guru" - Debbie H. (She owns the handsome team of BIG grey Percherons - Chazz & Chase, seen throughout our sight) She then shared the pictures with others from the show and the next thing I knew, I was invited to be the official unofficial photographer of the TDHMA for the next few years!
Next came the process of choosing a name. I LOVE puns and such, so... since Drafts usually weight anywhere from 1,600 to 2,500 pounds...
the draft saying goes that
REAL horses weigh
a TON!
And thus, One Ton Photography
was created!

Sadly, I did not think ahead of what that tag would look like at the bottom of some beautiful bride's wedding day portraits! Ooops!
And these are just a smidge of the over
46,000 photos that I have taken,
mainly in just the last FIVE years!
This is just since going DIGITAL
Thanks Tom for selling me your Nikon D50!
