Can you equally love two things at once? I believe you can.

Music has always been home for me ..it’s where I feel most alive, most honest. But I’ve also found something real and honest in taking photos of people.

There’s something about taking a photo that shows someone what they’ve stopped seeing in themselves …that quiet reminder that they’re enough, they’re beautiful, and they matter. I love nothing more than showing someone how beautiful they can be.. how beautiful they are…

We live in a world that profits off our insecurities. Everywhere we turn, something is telling us to be a little more, do a little better. we’re told we’re not enough not pretty enough, not young enough, not successful enough. It’s a brilliant marketing scheme bc when we constantly hear we are not enough, we buy more.. consume more, and believe we need more. Im as much a victim of this as everybody else is. Theres not much you can do to avoid it..

But when I’m behind a camera, I get to push back against that a little…to help people see the a version of themselves they love. A version that is powerful, beautiful, seen.. a version that is not wanting.. And honestly, I need that for myself too.

Because feeling good isn’t shallow ..it’s survival sometimes. When you feel seen, you start to believe again. You start to breathe again. You start to show up in your own life again. And maybe that’s all I’m really ever chasing …in songs, in photos, in people. Maybe it’s the kind of art we need more of.. in whatever form it comes.

Thank you Robbie for all the music!

🎶 Remembering Robby Turner (1962 – 2025) 🕊️
Pedal Steel Maestro • Outlaw Spirit • Eternal Sound

———

On September 4, 2025, country music lost one of its quiet giants with the passing of pedal steel guitarist Robby Turner. His name may not have always been front-and-center, but his sound was the heartbeat behind some of the greatest artists and eras in country history.

The son of Doyle and Bernice Turner—both members of Hank Williams’s Drifting Cowboys—Robby was practically destined for musical greatness. By the age of six he was already drumming with his father’s band, and by twelve he was the youngest Sho-Bud endorsed steel guitarist in the nation. His early promise only grew into a lifetime of contributions to the genre he loved.

Robby’s name will forever be linked with Waylon Jennings and the outlaw country movement. Touring and recording with Jennings, as well as playing with his legendary band Waymore's Outlaws, Robby’s steel gave Waylon’s music a haunting, soulful depth. His greatest gift to Waylon’s legacy may have been producing Goin’ Down Rockin’: The Last Recordings—capturing the final performances of his friend and hero, ensuring they lived on for the world to hear.

In 1989, Robby joined The Highwaymen—Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, and Kris Kristofferson—taking the pedal steel to stadium stages and international audiences. He later toured with the Dixie Chicks on their Top of the World Tour and became a trusted studio musician whose touch graced the music of John Prine, Travis Tritt, Tanya Tucker, Marty Stuart, and so many more.

Robby never faded into the background as the years rolled on—he helped shape the sound of today’s country. He played on Sturgill Simpson’s breakout High Top Mountain, and his steel can be heard all across Chris Stapleton Traveller and From A Room: Volume 1. His work gave those modern classics the same timeless grit and soul that had once backed the Outlaws.

Robby Turner was more than a sideman—he was the connective tissue between eras. His sound carried the outlaw spirit forward, linking the legends of yesterday with the stars of today.

As we remember him today, let’s celebrate the notes he left us: soulful, soaring, and eternal.

🎶 Rest easy, Robby. The strings may have stilled, but your music will forever echo in the heart of country music. 🕊️
