I just felt the need to share these black background portraits of Mojito today – I think I have a case of the Mondays. And what better way to cheer myself up than to stare at a gorgeous dapple gray Welsh cross pony?! Does it get much better than this? Mojito’s show name is “Second […]

I swear we had like, one weekend of nice fall weather last year. It feels like we went directly from relentless heat and humidity right into a polar vortex and then back into some wishy washy version of fall with roller coaster temperatures and rain! So much rain! When Jinny’s mom Susan booked Jinny’s portraits […]

2018 was my first full year as a solely equine photographer – and thanks to my amazing clients, models, family and friends, it was amazing. I wanted to put together my very favorite images from each shoot just for posterity, mainly – but I won’t lie, this was pretty fun to put together. So here […]

Every photographer has their muse – whether it’s their child, spouse, or pet – there’s always that certain someone who inspires them and their work. Jenna is my muse – you may see her face in a few places on my site! She’s one of my very best friends – it’s an added bonus that she’s […]

If you look closely at my work, there’s a theme that runs throughout – green. Lush green trees, grass, bushes, meadows – green, green, green. I LOVE THE GREENERY! I’m busiest in late spring and all summer for this reason – I just cannot get enough of that gorgeous summer greenery and the beautiful, warm […]

This session held a few firsts for me – my first time shooting in a corn field, and my first time doing portraits of a standardbred! Kerstin boards Prairie at a beautiful spot in Monroe Township, and they grow their own hay on the property – it also backs up to some lovely woods. But […]

There’s a running theme on my blog this summer – gorgeous clients that somehow manage to stay looking gorgeous in horrendous heat. Let’s add Amanda to that list! It was brutally hot and humid the day of her portrait session – as usual I came prepped with my portable fan, cold water, and towels, but […]

Where do I start with this one? Also let’s see if I can get through writing this post without crying (not gonna happen). I met Molly back in 2015 when I came to my current barn – she was a cute kid, always fun to be around and one of the senior “barn rats” (working […]

So first of all CONGRATULATIONS to Jen on her college graduation!! When Jen contacted me about senior photos with her chestnut mare, Luna, I was stoked – I love senior portraits. When I went to meet her and Luna I got even more excited because TWO REDHEADS! My second time with a red-headed pair! When […]

So I’m not from a naturally humid place – southern California doesn’t rank  high on the humidity scale. I never really had an issue with humidity – I’ve been to Hawaii and Florida and a few other humid spots for vacations – I was always able to kind of go with the flow. But when […]
