A client I’ve really enjoyed working with for the past few years is Boehringer Ingelheim Equine Health. Their agency is located in Minneapolis, which makes working together easy because there’s no out-of-state coordination, casting, or travel involved. Minnesota has an incredible array of beautiful horses, skilled riders, and gorgeous locations….
It was a great privilege to photograph a world-class showjumping competition like the Longines League of Nations at the World Equestrian Center in Ocala, Florida. Before this event, I had never even been to the World Equestrian Center in Ocala FL, much less had the credentials to photograph there. To…
This is the sixth year Purina has chosen images from my Equine Stock Library for their Horse calendar.
