Jessica Brandi Lifland's Photo Blog 
Masterful work Jessica. It a true insight into the spirit of the people who participate. Your photos at every NCPG have artfully documented a remarkable annual event in the American West! Each year you have refined your art to achieve the story telling of the story tellers. I haven’t been able to attend the last few years, but your photos fill the attendance gap… While sparking some true curiosity! Like … Was she drinking sarsparilla?
