Texas Horned Lizard in Oklahoma Today Magazine

September 28, 2017 by James Pratt Leave a Comment

Each day several Texas Horned Lizards - "Horney Toads" - are radio-tracked and captured then weighed to track their growth over time. Here an OKC Zoo scientist clips a scale to the radio tracking antenna on a horny toad and records its weight.

“Would you like to photograph a story about the Horny Toad at Tinker Air Force Base?” I got that question after answering the phone call from Megan Rossman, photo editor at Oklahoma Today Magazine. “Heck yea!” Didn’t take me long to answer that question. I had originally told Nathan Gunter, editor at Oklahoma Today, about […]

The Great Debaters – Oklahoma Today November/December 2015

November 1, 2015 by James Pratt Leave a Comment

I spent fall of 2014 and much of 2015 photographing the Oklahoma high school debate circuit for Oklahoma Today magazine. After completing the assignment I felt it was one of my most challenging assignments to date. I traveled to several venues for the story, including the Oklahoma High School Debate State Championships at the University of Oklahoma. (And […]

I photographed Maree Lunsford in front of her family’s McGranahan Barn event venue in Piedmont, along Northwest Expressway, for the November/December 2015 issue of Oklahoma Today.

Oklahoma Living Magazine cover May 2021

Oklahoma Living August 2020

I forgot to post this cover photo that I did for Oklahoma Living last year during the pandemic. I went to Stillwater to photograph a CareerTech student on a hot July morning. We were able to stay “socially distanced” while I did the shoot.

OK Living Cover May 2020

Before the COVID-19 pandemic I toted my white background and lighting gear to Central Electric Cooperative in Stillwater for a cover shoot for Oklahoma Living Magazine. These usually require a fair amount of work, since I have to take an 11′ roll of white paper with me, plus all the gear to hold the paper […]

Oklahoma Living April 2020 Cover and Feature Story

I always love assignments from Oklahoma Living Magazine. Most are centered around people, and I love photographing people. In this case, I was assigned to photograph a story about Gene Rowe, a farmer in southwest Oklahoma. The story was written by Adam Calaway, one of my favorite writers, so I knew it was going to […]

Oklahoma Living Magazine September 2019 Cover

I had fun photographing this cover story for Oklahoma Living Magazine, one of my favorite clients. I took this picture at the beautiful Chickasaw Nation Cultural Center in Sulphur, Oklahoma on a really hot summer day. I had to be careful to keep my models from sweating. It was toasty hot, about 98 degrees outside. […]

Goodnight Farms in Chattanooga Oklahoma

In 2017 I photographed a story about Cody Goodnight, co-owner of Goodnight Farms southwest Oklahoma. The assignment was for Top Producer Magazine, a regular client I work for in the agriculture industry. I photographed Cody and his father, fiancé and employees on their farm in early spring as they were getting ready for the wheat […]

Volunteer Firefighters for Oklahoma Living

I always love photographing real people doing real things. What could be more fun than photographing volunteer firemen? I got that opportunity recently for Oklahoma Living Magazine. My assignment was to photograph firemen from the Coyle and Woodcrest fire departments in Oklahoma. I had the idea to do a split-shot photo that showed both the […]

Rising from the Ashes – for Kansas Agriculture Magazine

During the summer 2017 I took a trip to western Kansas for a long-time client and photographed a couple of stories in the area. For one story I stopped in Clark County and photographed the Ashland Veterinarian Clinic for a story about how the clinic helped local farmers during and after a huge spring prairie […]
