Western Roots is a visual storytelling photographic project where photographer Jalynn Givens embraces elements of Western aesthetics inspired by a cowgirl’s indication of what an American Western lifestyle looks like in their life. Exempting the art of a cowgirl introduces others to the environment they call home and stands by America’s important values as they represent their God-given roots. This work displays American style, western characteristics, and patriotic beliefs that value each cowgirl with compelling insight into who they are. Being a cowgirl isn’t about fashion but the symbolization of life through confidence, compassion, and character, a perfect indication of an emphasized story of Western attributes and traditional values with a touch of rhinestones. Jalynn Givens expresses how American traditions have evolved to share a cowgirl’s lifestyle of living life by the hooves of a horse and looking good while doing it. American Western lifestyles break barriers to express a cowgirl's uniqueness as it showcases the beauty of a rugged Western American lifestyle.
