Every Rodeo Has a Story
Here's how i tell it







Rooted In Purpose
Stories are the heartbeat of the West — the rides, the ranch work, the laughter, and the faith that carries us through it all.
I’m Belina Hooper, the heart behind Western Cowboy Chronicles — a Royal Canadian Air Force veteran turned Alberta-based western lifestyle & Rodeo videographer from Hinton, Alberta. I believe God places callings on our hearts, and mine is to capture the western way of life before it fades — to film the people, the work, and the moments that make this life worth living.
From the roar of the arena to the rhythm of ranch life and the stillness of Alberta’s backcountry, every story I film carries a purpose. My goal isn’t just to document what happens, but to tell the story within it — preserving the heritage, faith, and grit that define the western way of life.
but sometimes the story
goes beyond the arena
