Carl & Cindy Harlan
Owners of C Bar C Arena
"C Bar C Expo Center, owned by Carl and Cindy Harlan of Waynetown, Indiana, is quickly becoming Indiana’s number 1 choice for equine and livestock shows. C Bar C is known for its friendly staff, great homemade food, and clean facility. The entire barn is cleaned and sanitized before every show to help promote the health of the horses and other livestock that attend our events. In 2019 C Bar C went solar and is now run completely from our solar field that sits behind the Arena, setting this facility up for generations to come."

About Becky
I’m Becky, owner and main photographer here at Ruehle Photographix. I started thisadventure in 2012, and it has been the greatest ride! Photography and horses aren’t just a part of my job, they are my job, and my life. I grew up riding and showing horses. When I wasn’t on the back of a horse, I was taking pictures of them. One college degree from Carroll College later and I decided to jump right into this “horses & pictures” adventure, full time.
I feel very blessed to have learned from some of the best in the business… Larry Williams and Jeff Kirkbride. But always live by the motto of “Never Stop Learning”. I am born and raised in Wisconsin, but you can find me just about anywhere taking photos at a show or out in someones horse pasture! I look forward to meeting you and capturing the moments that mean the most to you!
