Western photographer, Jody Miller of MillersReflections, will be the featured artist on display in the Arts Prescott Gallery window from June 25 through July 8, just in time for the annual fanfare associated with the 123rd World’s Oldest Rodeo®, Prescott Frontier Days®. Arts Prescott Gallery, located at 134 S. Montezuma Street on historic Whiskey Row in downtown Prescott, Arizona, hosts 24 artists, with Jody Miller as the one professional Western Photographer.
“Somehow it seems so appropriate that with all the events associated with the World’s Oldest Rodeo®, my photography featuring horses and cowboys will be front and center in the gallery’s window,” stated Miller. “I’m so excited and happy about the timing in being selected from among the other gallery artists to appear up front. I’m sure that many visitors and residents who have not seen my work will be downtown enjoying the festivities and may now get a chance to do just that.” she added.
“Bring Em Home USA” and “Boots ‘N Beer,” are two of Miller’s pieces scheduled to be on display in the large front gallery window. In addition to the photography that will be on display, Jody Miller will also have available matted, gallery wrapped and mounted photography, and in a variety of sizes, from 8”x 10” to 36” x 48.” Custom sizing, mounting and framing arrangements for certain images can be made as well. Prices range from $40 to $1,200. Other collectible pieces of Jody Miller’s horse photography also include note cards and small photo collection books.

About Jody Miller
Like so many Arizona photographers, Jody came here to leave the rat race behind, to encounter the visual thrill of long views, and to capture her subject in the incomparable desert light. Alongside her day job, she set herself up as a commercial portraitist and art photographer, doing business as MillersReflections. Her images have been published in Horse and Rider, Western Horseman, The Horse Connection, the 2004 Ruger Sportswear Catalog, and Today's Horse.
Miller (MillersReflections.com) has won awards from the Prescott Fine Arts Association and the Phippen Museum, where her work appeared in the Emerging Photographic Talent of the West exhibit. Jody supports the community with ongoing donations of services and artwork to Horses with H.E.A.R.T., the Soroptimists, Habitat for Humanity, and Future for KIDS.
Before becoming an Arizonan, Jody's love of horses led her to spend a number of years on a working horse ranch in the California desert. She says, "I have loved horses ever since I was a teenager. They are majestic, powerful, glorious animals that love to perform and show off their beauty. I enjoy the challenge of capturing that special connection people have with their animals."
