Highside Photography

Highside Photography My name is Kristy and I'm a Motorsports Photographer. I've been behind the lens going on 20+ years. Wheels up or bangin the cushion on a dirt track.

In my off season .... Wait, there is an off season? My name is Kristy, Originally from Tn but currently reside in AR. Wife to a sprint car driver, mom of 4 amazing young men/boys. I picked up a camera in my late teens and fell in love. Capturing the world was at my fingertips. I bought my 1st camera and went on an adventure. An adventure that has been non stop for over 20 years. It is something I

am passionate about. I started out in nature photography. Telling the stories that others may never see. That eventually led me to parties, weddings, maternity and etc. When my husband asked me to take pics of his sprint car a few years ago, I saw how it came alive behind the lens without moving. It sparked a fire. So 6 years ago I took up motorsports photography. Talked to other photographers that are now amazing friends and they answered a million questions. I bought the right equipment and hit the ground running. It is now my 1st love behind the lens. The rush you get when those cars come by you and the rumble you feel in the ground beneath your feet. The appreciation from the drivers when they see the photos that you have captured. Makes it all worth it. So if you are looking for that one pic.... let me know how I can help. I would love to challenge myself to be able to capture it for you.

This Saturday night, Sept 12th, I am staying close to home and taking it back to where I started.
The famed 1/4 mile gumbo oval they call "The Ditch" owned by Clayton Allen.
Riverside International Speedway West Memphis, AR is where the action will be this weekend.
This track has produced some of the best drivers who ever stepped foot on dirt. Legendary names that will float off people's tongues for generations to come.
"Ho**er" Hood, Ricky Hood, Sammy Swindell, Jeff Swindell, Ray Bugg, Greg Hodnett, Bud Ward, Shorty Chambliss, Ricky Stenhouse Jr to name a few.
All who have made legendary moves across the gumbo and paved the way for others.

Join us this Saturday as the MidSouth shows it's talent on dirt.

See yall on the dirt!
