2017 was a pretty great year for my photography business. I was busier than ever with a mix of portraits, commercial shoots, and stock photo shoots. When I get busy, this poor blog get neglected. I thought a good way to catch up would be to share a couple of images from each portrait session I did ...
Annika’s Dreamy Equestrian Senior Photos
I'll admit it, I wish I was better at keeping up with this blog. I love to showcase my favorite sessions and share the stories behind them. I've been nonstop busy (which is good for a small business owner!) but I'm going to try and catch up so I can get back on track with new work. ...
Paradis’ Senior Photos with her Horse Scarlett
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 ...
Janelle’s Equine Portrait Sunset Session
Janelle is a Shelley Paulson Photography VIP. What's that? Well, it is a special group exclusively for past clients. I offer my VIPs special sessions, give them first dibs for model calls for stock and commercial shoots, and they are the first to know about new products and services I am ...
Patti and Molly – Mother/Daughter Equine Photo Shoot
Patti and Molly are more like sisters than mother and daughter.

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 ...
Anna’s Senior Photos with Horses Kharben and Tommy
I use the word “Horse Lover” to welcome people to my web site, and also to describe my ideal client. Anna fits that description to a “t”! She truly loves her horses, and it’s evident they love her back. She is an accomplished equestrian, winning many national titles with her beautiful Arabian ...
