Being a high school senior can bring a mixed bag of emotions. Excitement about the future - leaving home, learning in a new environment, choosing a career; but it can also bring about changes that aren't easy - less time for riding, or even having to give up riding altogether for a season. For the ...
Julia’s Senior Photos with Her Horse Poppe
Ah, autumn in Minnesota! I love the great variety of colors and the beautiful evening light we get this time of year. Of course, this was last year. I hate being so behind on blogging, but this is the last of 2015. Onward and upward! :) I can honestly say that I have never seen a horse with more ...
Molly’s Senior Photos with her Horse Lacey
I met Molly when her mom and I were boarding our horses together. I was so impressed with this smart, talented young woman that I asked her to assist for me last summer at some of my filmmaking projects. She learned quickly and was a valuable part of my very small team! With Molly’s session, we ...
Kenzie’s Senior Photos with her Horse Charmer
Still working my way through blogging last year’s sessions. I like to share as many as I can, so just three more and I can move on to this year! I seriously cannot wait for autumn to get here! I love the crisp weather and vibrant landscape color we are blessed to have in Minnesota. I just wish ...
Emily and Olivia – Senior Twins with their Horses
I got to photograph TWO sets of twins with their horses last year! Emily and Olivia ride Eventing, which means they do three day competitions that involve Dressage, Cross Country (riding jumps on a course out in the field) and Stadium Jumping (riding jumps in an arena). They devote a tremendous ...
Greta’s Senior Photos with Her Horses Remi & Raz
I’m sort of panicking because it suddenly got green outside and I’m only about halfway through blogging last year’s sessions! I will try and catch up in the next few weeks. Try. :) I thought it would be appropriate to share Greta’s photos today because she had a big accomplishment over the weekend ...
McKayla, Dream and Blaze, the Adorable Photo Bombing Foal
This was a first - a senior session where the horse we are photographing has a foal at her side! McKayla is a super talented, super sweet young woman with a BIG heart for horses. She worked at the ranch where we did the session, and Dream was her favorite horse to ride. In addition to being a ...
McKayla’s Senior Photos with Dream and her cute foal Blaze
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 fellow photography lover. It was such a pleasure to ...
Tayler and Her Horse Le Soir, Equestrian Senior Portraits
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 that comes with years of being loved and well ...
Portraits of Marissa and her Lovable Horses
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 over jumps, water hazards, ...
