"Ranchlands posted something about a photo internship being open, and my dad was like, 'You don't have any more excuses. You have to try to do that.'

And I ended up staying there for nine months. I don't think I would have realized that ranching was an option for me. That I didn't have to just take pictures, that I could do the other stuff too. I could be involved in it."

Meet Claudia, Ranchlands photographer and social media manager, and part of the ranch management team at the Frying Pan Ranch in Texas. In this video, Claudia shares her story of growing up with artistic parents in southern Arizona and how she combines her photography with the daily ranch work at the Frying Pan.
