Cattle shows are where passion for breeding and the agricultural sector truly come together. For me, these events are the foundation of Photo’s by Fleur Maartje. I capture both the strength of the animals and the atmosphere surrounding the show, ensuring every image carries lasting value.
Through my photography and videography, I provide added value to both organizers and participants: professional visuals that radiate pride, strengthen communication, and turn memories into something tangible.
A great cow photograph starts with a sharp focus on the animal itself. In the show ring, it’s all about highlighting each cow’s strongest qualities. That’s exactly what I capture through my lens. For every participant entering the ring, I ensure the cow’s strength, structure, and presence are brought to life in the image. This way, every exhibitor goes home with a photo to be proud of.
At a cattle show, it’s not only about the animals in the ring. The tension behind the scenes, the connections between people, and the lively atmosphere around the event are what make the day truly special. With my candid photography, I capture exactly those moments. This way, every event is portrayed in its entirety, where the experience is just as important as the performance.
What started with photographing in the show ring soon grew into something more: cow portraits outside the ring. These portraits allow for a calmer setting and more focus on the animal, bringing out its strongest qualities in the best possible way. Perfect as a lasting memory of the show, or as a way to give a champion cow some extra spotlight. Because even outside the ring, these animals deserve their stage.
Every show is unique in its scale and needs.
That’s why at Photo’s by Fleur Maartje I offer a range of packages and extras, tailored to both organizers and participants. This way, you’re always assured of photography that fits your event perfectly.

Atmosphere
With a single show ring, I capture each animal individually, ensuring every exhibitor receives a beautiful image of their cow. When two or more rings are running at the same time, the focus shifts toward the overall atmosphere, with special attention to the cows’ conformation and presence.
Liveposting
Do you want to bring your event into the spotlight right away? With live posting, I provide professional images that are shared instantly on the organization’s social media channels. This can be done in two ways: from every class or only of the champions.
For both options, a writer from the organization should be present, ensuring that text and visuals complement each other and the audience can enjoy the event to the fullest.
Reels
Reels are the ultimate way to share the atmosphere of a cattle show with your audience. I create short, powerful videos that capture the essence of the event and bring it to life. These reels are published on my TikTok channel (30,000 followers) and Instagram channel (12,000 followers), giving your event a wide and highly relevant reach. Of course, the video will also be made available to the organization itself.
