This was a first! I’ve never had a session where my client’s favorite horse had a foal at her side, so the foal got to be part of the session! There were a few antics at times, but the whole experience was fun because McKayla is a horse lover and…
What do you get when you combine perfect weather, a young woman who is beautiful inside and out, a stunning horse and a scenic location? Some of my favorite photos to date! Le Soir is the same age as my horse – 22 – and has the same quiet demeanor…
I find it such a joy to photograph young women with horses that they just adore. Marissa was the epitome of that with her two horses Rueger and Zaster. She loves them, they love her back, it shows. She rides Cross Country, which means she basically flies on these horses…
This is my last session to blog from 2014! I can’t wait to catch you all up on this year’s sessions, it’s been a great summer so far! If you are interested in a session with autumn colors, I encourage you to book soon, as these dates are filling up….

If I could be granted a superpower, I think I would want the ability to control the weather. I feel like I’ve turned into an amateur meteorologist over the years, as I try watch and read multiple weather reports and forecasts to figure out when to go ahead with a…

You may not know this about me, but I used to be quite the trumpet player. For most of my Jr and Sr High years, I was first or second chair. I even had a custom license plate for awhile that read “TRMPT1.” My senior year of high school found…
One of my favorite things about my equestrian portrait sessions is that I get to visit a lot of different barns in the area and explore the beautiful scenery surrounding them. Keara boards her horse Harley at Rolling Hills Stable in Hugo, MN. Hugo is just far enough north of…
