PLEASE SHARE

Pre entries are now open on horseshowing .com for our first Hunter Jumper Show of the season 🎉

Class list, descriptions, membership and sponsorship forms are online as well. Pre entries are very important to give us a general idea of attendance. We have been asked to run this series and love to host shows but cannot if we do not get local support. If pre entries are light we will decide whether or not to run after pre entries close at midnight on Wednesday June 10th.

Limited day stalls available

We’re sorting through memberships and points and will have everything posted by next Wednesday for both Gymkhana and the Open Show. In the meantime, someone left this at the horse show. We’ll have it for you at the June show!

Rustic Roads Photography got our pictures ready for you guys in record speed! This is a friendly but firm reminder. There is no screenshot of photos and posting them.

Photos from Sunday's Show at MDPH Open Show Series are now available!

I know many of you are familair with my process at this point, but in case you have not previously ordered photos before, I will give you a quick explaination of my process :)

All photos on the website are proofs, and will display a watermark. Purchased photos come to me for review, and due to the time my editing takes, Digital Dowloads can take 1-2 days to receive, and prints are shipped according to my lab's schedule. I hand edit every photo, including distraction removal, and I go in order of orders received.

To purchase digital downloads, click on the "shopping cart" and then click on "all products", and then "Specialty Products", you will find Digital Downloads there. I deliver digital downloads via email, and for larger orders, via Google Drive.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out here, email or text!

Just wanted to take a moment and thank absolutely everyone that came out and supported both of our shows this weekend. Our gymkhana on Saturday morning had a wonderful turn out with so many new faces. We can’t wait to see you July 18th!

Our Open show on Sunday had our largest turnout ever with most classes having 10-15+ entries and some with 20+!

Thank you to all of the exhibitors new and returning! Thank you to our volunteers, truly without every single one of them these shows would not be possible. From our concession stand helpers to the office girls, our announcers, parking help, those that reset gymkhana and trail courses, and all the behind the scenes help. THANK YOU 🥰 These shows are not easy to run and they are very time-consuming yet we wouldn’t change a thing of bringing our local exhibitors somewhere to show off their hard work.

Thank you again and we look forward to seeing everyone on June 7th for next Open Show 🤩

Biggest THANK YOU to Rustic Roads Photography for capturing such amazing shots all weekend 🤩 here are the gymkhana ones!

Photos from MDPH Open Show Series first Gymkhana of 2026 are now available! Click on the link above to check out the Gallery!

I saw some new faces, so I wanted to share how my process works!

Any photo you select, including prints, digital downloads, etc. all come to me for review. The photos on my website are all proofs, not edited, and have a watermark to deter screenshots and other forms of theft.

Your final image will arrive without the watermark, hand edited, color corrected, and distractions removed as I am able to do so. As you can see in these two photos, I have removed the utility pole and buliding from the background. Due to the time it takes for editing, as well as the fact that I do have a job other than photography, Digital Downloads will take 1-2 days from purchase time to recieve, and prints are shipped according to my lab's shipping times.

If you have any questions, please reach out to me either on here or via email at [email protected]
