2025 Columbia County Fair Demolition Derby

August 29, 2025

So, I like to shoot the demolition derby at the fair every year. No one hires me to do this, I just go and shoot it because I have a blast doing it. This year, I shot the derby and then immediately got hit with an avalanche of paid work, so I kept putting off editing the derby photos. I really wanted to put the photos out there but I couldn’t in good conscience make a paying customer wait while I worked on something just for fun. And that avalanche of work never really let up, to the point where I wasn’t successfully answering all the emails I got (sorry about that if I never answered you, I feel genuinely terrible about it). Finally the fall sports season ended and I got a bit of a break to start getting caught up.

Which is why I’m finally posting the photos I took at the Friday derby at the Columbia County Fair. A mere three months after the fact. I’ll try to do better next year.
