Craig is a hog farmer in Northern Kansas, I was always told that you can tell how a farmer treats their animals by how the animals respond to him. I had kneel down in one of the pens to take a photo of him surrounded by his Heritage hogs, and one came up and started rotting and nibbling on his jacket. Just after this photo, a curious hog knocked over my light stand.

I like it but do you have one where he's looking at the camera?
Hey Bruce. I do, but this little moment signified the portrait I wanted to take. He cares more about his time with the animals than anything else, I personally felt him looking this way portrayed who he is as a hog farmer. But yeah, I definitely made sure to take a bunch with him camera aware as well.
Thanks, Scott. I appreciate the reply. I can see that he cares about them.
