It's a busy Tuesday, and Monarch is headed back to Clarksville! 📸🐑

We're excited to welcome Laura Jackson back to cover the Clarksville Area Sheep Show. Many of you will remember Laura from the Clarksville Steer Show earlier this year, and we're excited to have her back behind the camera.

Of course, no trip to Clarksville would be complete without Monarch's favorite sidekick, Ethan Bartee, who we hear will be present as well. Every photographer needs a trusty helper, and Ethan has become pretty good at keeping the backdrop running, carrying whatever needs carrying, and generally being wherever the action is.

If you see Laura and Ethan today, be sure to say hello!

Have a great show, and we'll see you at the backdrop.

They say Paris is always a good idea... and we'd have to agree. 🇫🇷🐑🐐

The Eiffel Tower Lamb & Goat Show brought great livestock, hardworking exhibitors, and plenty of moments worth remembering, from the ring to the backdrop and everywhere in between.

The photos are officially live and ready for you to look through, share, and save.

A special thank-you to Colton Tripp for taking the reins for Monarch this weekend and making sure every class, celebration, and memory was covered. We are incredibly grateful to have friends in this industry who are willing to step in and help make sure our exhibitors never miss their moment.

One of the best things about the livestock industry is that when someone needs a hand, somebody is always willing to step in.

While I'm off on an incredible adventure covering junior nationals in Canada, I'm thankful to have good friends back home who are helping make sure Monarch never misses a beat.

This weekend, we're excited to welcome Colton Tripp to the Monarch Ag Media team as he covers the Eiffel Tower Lamb & Goat Show.

If you're ringside this weekend, be sure to introduce yourself and say hello!

And don't worry your pictures are in good hands. Colton knows his way around a show ring, and I can't wait for y'all to see what he captures.

It's pretty special to be part of an industry where people are always willing to help each other succeed. That's something worth celebrating.

Have a great weekend, and we'll see you at the backdrop! 📸🐑🐐

🎤 The Headliner

Every show weekend builds to this moment.

The barns get a little busier.
The stands fill up.
The anticipation grows.

Then the gate opens.

The heifer show isn't just another class, it's the performance everyone has been waiting to see. Months of preparation, countless hours in the barn, and one opportunity to step into the ring and let the work speak for itself.

We loved capturing every lineup, every handshake, every celebration, and every unforgettable moment from the Tennessee Beef Expo Heifer Show.

Photos + Videos are now live on the website.

Go relive the weekend and find your favorite moments from the main event.

✨ The Spotlight Finds You

There comes a point in every showmanship class when the animal fades into the background just a little...
..and the spotlight finds the exhibitor.

Every move matters.
Every adjustment has a purpose.
Every lap around the ring is a chance to show the hours of practice that led to this moment.

That's what makes showmanship one of our favorite classes to photograph.

Showmanship photos + videos from the Tennessee Beef Expo are now live on the website.

Go find your moment in the spotlight.

🎤 Behind the Scenes

Everybody sees what happens in the show ring.

But some of the best moments happen before the lights come on.

The conversations in the barn.
The last-minute brushing.
Friends helping friends.
The laughs, the nerves, and the little moments that never make it into the lineup.

That's the story we love telling.

📸 The Around the Barn gallery from the Tennessee Beef Expo is now live, along with videos from the weekend.

Turn it up, take a walk behind the scenes, and see if we caught your favorite moments.

🎤 Center Stage: Steer Show

The fitting is done.
The gate opens.
And for a few minutes, it's just you, your steer, and the spotlight.

Every lap around the ring tells a story of early mornings before school, late nights in the barn, long hauls across the state, and the countless little moments that got you here.

The show ring isn't just where champions are named.

It's where months of hard work finally get their moment center stage.

We loved capturing every step, every smile, every handshake, and every memory from the Tennessee Beef Expo Steer Show.

Since 2013, Tennessee Cattlemen's Association's Second Harvest Beef Program has connected Tennessee's cattle producers with families facing food insecurity by purchasing top market steers exhibited by youth and donating the beef to Second Harvest Food Bank.

At the 2026 Tennessee Beef Expo, the program proudly purchased three outstanding steers:
🔸Grand Champion Market Steer exhibited by Michael Barnett (Montgomery County), sponsored by Farm Credit Mid-America.
🔸Reserve Champion Market Steer exhibited by Lucas Berner (Obion County), co-sponsored by H&R Agri-Power, Swallows Insurance Agency, and Clear Creek Gulf Cattle.
🔸5th Overall Market Steer exhibited by Alex Cunningham (Washington County), co-sponsored by United Livestock Commodities and Tri-Green Equipment.

Thank you to our generous sponsors for making this meaningful tradition possible and to the young exhibitors whose hard work continues to make a difference in communities across Tennessee.

There's just something different about a fitting contest.
It's not about banners or buckles. It's about preparation, attention to detail,
teamwork, and making one more pass with the blower because you know it can be just a little better.

The Tennessee Beef Expo fitting contest had all of that—and then some.
We had a great time capturing the concentration, the teamwork, and the moments that don't always happen in the show ring but are just as much a part of the story.

📸 Photos from the fitting contest are now live on the website.
