Audrey and her Horse Delilah

This was one of my all time favorite sessions! Audrey and Delilah made me laugh and smile through the whole thing, and they made it possible for me to make some of my best senior/equine images to date! I think a big part of that is the crazy love that Audrey has for her horse. When I asked her in ...
