Shot on location at the Herronton, AB, grain elevator owned by Kelly & Llana Malmberg.
Late in the summer of 2025, Kelly and Llana Malmberg granted Western Horse Review the opportunity to use their privately-owned grain elevator for a fashion shoot. As my grandfather used to work in one of these prairie fixtures years ago, this photojournalism piece is a nod to our heritage – with the youth of today. What a special feature it was for us to put together with Lammle’s Western Wear.
Wrangler Women’s Retro Mae mid-rise bootcut jean, $110; Cruel Girl Denim short-sleeve with faux smile pockets, in slate blue, $90; Wrangler Women’s classic fit jean jacket in stonewash, $99.
It was pretty cool to step back in time and visit one of these “Prairie Sentinels,” especially one so well preserved.
Wrangler Women’s Retro Bailey high-rise bootcut jeans, $110; PanHandle Women’s embroidered sleeveless snap shirt in rust, $70.
Along with our highly talented crew of young models and their horses, we stumbled across old posters and work orders – things that were typical of these wood-cribbed, structures of yesteryear. (I didn’t realize smoking opium was so common back then, that it required an actual sign…)
We also came across an old game console, which our models quickly latched onto – wanting to know if it still worked. Low and behold, it did! And through the staticky old screen of a Sony television set, a vintage game of baseball began.
COWBOY SH!T Buffalo maroon hoodie, unisex, $90; Stetson Men’s American Heritage Steerhead ballcap, $55.
A very cool experience indeed. To check out more of our time in Herronton, AB, be sure to visit our Instagram feed!
