Welcome to The Advantage

Advantage Livestock Marketing offers a broad range of livestock marketing tools. The business was built around cattle photography and has grown into so much more. We offer photography and videography services for all species of livestock, print ad design, sale and sire directory catalog design, and promotional consulting.


To get a better feel of the business I will give you all a background of myself. I was born in Canton, Georgia where I grew up on a small cattle farm, I purchased my heifer when I was 3 years old at the sale barn with my dad. I wanted a bottle calf so bad so while he wasn't looking I raised my hand and my cow herd began from there. I begin showing in 4-H when I was 9 years old, showing mainly Hereford and Crossbred steers and heifers. After high school I went off to Stephenville, Texas to Tarleton State University for 2 years and then graduated from Oklahoma State University with a degree in AgriBusiness with a marketing option. Through my college years I had the opportunity to meet many great people involved in the livestock industry that have influenced my life greatly.

My love of cattle photography began at a young age. My mom said last week she is so thankful for digital cameras now because when she would have film developed when I was little half the roll would be of cows. Now I am thankful to be doing what I love, traveling and working with many great livestock producers.

As the spring rolls around don't forget about spring calf pictures for the August and State Fair issues of all the magazines for those having Labor Day and fall bid-off sales. Also, check out the new website designed by Kasey Witherspoon at KW Design Group: www.advantagelivestockmarketing.com.
