Meanwhile I’ve been on some very cool adventures 🌅🐎🤎

My horse truck has been an absolute godsend. Can’t wait for more adventures in Ole Blue and the new places we’ll get to experience!

Welcomed this cutie to the world a week ago 🐎🤎

What a pleasure it was to help this mare foal down and watch the growth between the two. Definitely found a new love for reproduction.

Even though L.A Horsemanship has closed down the lessons and rehoming side of things, I’m still carrying on down my own equine path. A part of that is capturing the beautiful parts of horses through my photography. So the occasional photoshoot will be posted on here.

Long time no post…

Also not a post I had ever planned on making as this doesn’t need attention because this is exactly what they wanted. But 2 years ago I was struggling to make ends meet, fighting so hard to keep my passion for horses alive. I had a traumatic brain injury, slowing me down. So I had to find other ways to keep horses in my life. Naturally I fell into rehoming and teaching.

I started this page to help people get a feel for the horses and keep everyone updated as there was old owners, buyers and genuine people wanting to see the progress the horses were making.

Then my passion for photography took off and I was able to give the campers and students memories to take away with them forever by capturing high quality pictures of them riding or hanging with their horses. Family members started following to see their children and children’s children riding horses.

We helped countless horses into new homes suited to them. We rehabbed many, some unfortunately we had to humanly euthanise. Any responsible horse owners know the pain involved with making the hard call.

We helped many students understand their horses and work through issues. Horses are a never ending learning opportunity.

But people were still out to tear us down. I’ve learnt that you cannot please everyone. I actively put myself and my work out there for the world to see. So that does come with criticism and hate unfortunately. I have always had thick skin, but to have death threats, horrible comments and my own personal hate page and a group chat designed to trash me was definitely hard to try and fathom.

I am not a victim of cyber bullying or slander. But I am sharing these as I’m sick of not being able to stand up for the truth and having people tainted against me purely from fake news.

Believe what you want, I cannot control your opinions of me.

But I do beg of you to not believe everything online and to make your own judgements based on your own personal interactions with me instead of going off second hand information.

This post is not to seek validation or to get sympathy. Neither is it a post to give these people what they want (to be heard and seen). But it is to raise awareness. These people even reached out to my students and bullied them for attending my services. I am an adult who understands why people can say and do such horrible things. But to then bring young and impressionable kids into it is a different level of wrong. I can only imagine how hurtful and soul destroying it is. Don’t let these people make horses a hard place to be, don’t let these people online affect you in your real day to day life.

Love to you all 🩷

We have closed, not due to this but due to far bigger and better things.
