I had a blast this past weekend at The World's Worst Dressage Show. Indoor settings are always tricky, but I think the energy and enthusiasm of the participants shine through in these images.

Whew! I had to pivot and chose a different sales platform, so this took me a couple extra days. Photos from the Heirloom Outreach May show are up and ready for viewing/purchase! Can't wait for the June show!

Love these Outreach shows! Bigs teaching the Littles the ropes. This one has the “course wave” down!

Bringing out the big guy once again! Super excited to be on the rail shooting horse shows! I’ll be at all of the Heirloom/Quiet Rein Outreach shows this season, starting this weekend. I’m a bit nervous, as I’ve never covered a whole show before, but looking forward to it. I just adore these Outreach shows and am grateful to be able to be a part of them once more. If you’re at the show, come say hi. I’ll be the one with the honkin’ big camera. And possibly a boot polish rag or ribbon hanging from my back pocket, since I’ll be doubling as a show mom 😉

I don’t know when I acquired this boom stand. It was back in my early video days, probably a cast off from a fellow filmmaker. I’ve used it very little, and how it has escaped my, “If I haven’t used it in the last year, it’s gone,” mantra, I don’t know. Then, after fighting with a light stand directly in front of the thing I wanted to shoot for the 100th time, I had a 💡 moment (every pun intended). This guy now has a purpose in my work again!

Session dates: Nov 6-8, Nov 13-15.

Class of 2022! It is time to book your Senior Portrait sessions! Let's get you on the schedule before summer gets away from us.
$185 session fee for up to two hours and multiple outfit changes. You pick the location (travel fee additional outside of 1 hour radius), or let me suggest one for you. While equestrians are my specialty, I love photographing Seniors with their activities or sports as I got my start as a high school sports photographer. Let's meet on the field, in the gym, or in an empty lot to show off your car! Whatever shows the world who you are!

All Senior sessions include a digital image according to your school's specifications. Great package pricing on prints and keepsakes just for Seniors!
