You Could Take a Day to Pamper Yourself and Experience the Wonder of an Equine Portrait Photo Session - Just YOU and Your Horse.

Yes, just YOU!

Life can be such a whirlwind. Caring for your family. Your day to day responsibilities. Making sure your horse gets enough time and attention, too. Did you call the farrier yet? Or order the senior pellets your vet recommended?

Sometimes, you have to stop and remember what matters to you. 

Are you so caught up in your weekly routine you’ve forgotten what makes you feel special?

As you care for your family, spend time with your grand kids, and plan your next holiday meal, have you lost sight of your sense of adventure? 

When your family pulls out the camera do you hide in the kitchen hoping no one notices? Or offer to take the family picture because you don’t want to be in the photo? 

“After I lose a few pounds,” you say.

“I don’t have any makeup on.” 

What if in 50 years, when your family looks back through photos there are hardly any of you? 

You are important.

You are beautiful.

Existing in photographs FOR your family is vital. 

Do something special. Something just for you. Today

Don’t put it off any longer.

Your daughters, granddaughters, and daughters-in-love are watching and observing. Show them the significance of being in photos. And, not just being in the photos, but LOVING it. Show them how to make the choice to feel confident and radiant even if you’re not the weight you wish you were...your makeup has faded...your hair isn’t right. 

Life is short. 

Create memories to last a lifetime.

Be inspired

Be adventurous

Plan an equestrian photography photo session to celebrate life with horses and make memories for YOU and your FAMILY.

4 Tips to Look and Feel Amazing for Your Personal Equine Photo shoot

  • Be Encouraged and Inspired

It’s time to choose to step into the photos instead of stepping out and watching from the sidelines. 

Your horse photographer is eager to help you feel comfortable. To enjoy your photo session. To love being in front of the lens.

But, how? Begin by sharing concerns you might have about being photographed. Do you feel awkward in front of the camera? Are you feeling like you need to lose weight first before you can have photos taken? Or, feel like you just don’t look good in pictures? Maybe you had a bad experience in the past?

Share your fears and worries with your equine photographer in your pre-session meeting. Talk about your concerns. Your photographer is passionate about her profession. She wants you to feel at ease. It’s her job to make sure you look good in front of the camera and have images you LOVE. Wall art you will adore for generations to come.

Your photographer knows how to make you look your best in your photos. Tell her if you have hesitation over how you feel when photographed. She has techniques to flatter or minimize parts of your body that you might be concerned about.

Your equine photography session is all about YOU and your horse. Your photographer is keen on hearing what you want to see in your images and why you have chosen this specific time in your life for a photo session. She wants to learn about you and your horse. The special stories about when you first met and how you bonded. Like you, she has a cherished bond with horses and knows the significance of recording memories.

...You’ve owned Rembrandt since he was a yearling. If you close your eyes, you can still remember the day you graduated with your masters and drove all night to Kentucky to buy your first Paso Fino. 

What a sight. 

Strong, yet graceful. His family lineage was the best of his breed. You couldn’t wait to get him home and use natural horsemanship to train the horse of your dreams. 

Rembrandt was the perfect name for this perfect horse. Regal. Captivating. One of the greatest you’d ever seen. And he was yours. 

The two of you grew up together. You learned about life and each other as the years went by. Your husband welcomed him when you married, as did your family when your children came along. He graced your Christmas cards for thirty-one years. 

In his thirty-second year of life, Rembrandt doesn’t move like he used to. But he still follows you around like a giant puppy dog. Giving you slobbery kisses you’ve come to cherish. You hope and pray he has a few years left because you aren’t even close to being ready to say goodbye.

For your birthday your children bought you a gift certificate for an equestrian photography session. Insisting you create a legacy of images to celebrate your life with Rembrandt. What a treasure.

  • Celebrate with Friends

What better way to celebrate life with horses than an equine photography session with one of your closest friends?

Equine-equestrian-portrait-Florida-Photographer-58.jpg

Like your bestie from your childhood. The two of you experienced the incredible world of horses for the first time at age six. 

Your grandmother set you up with 4 weeks of riding lessons for your birthday. Excited and nervous all wrapped into one. On your first day, your trainer paired you up with Champ, a brown horse with white socks and a blaze. As far as you were concerned, he was WAY TOO TALL. How were you going to get up on that thing? 

Lucky for you, a gal your same age walked up sensing your fear and worry. “Don’t worry, Champ is a good boy. He will take care of you. The people here will help you.” Kimberly was right. From that day forward the two of you were the best of friends. Showing together. Learning how to braid the horse’s manes and tails. Cleaning tack… and swimming with your horses for the first time. Hysterical laughter every time you slid off into the water. The best memories…and 40 years later you still find yourselves laughing like children together when you head out on a trail with your horses. The horses may have changed over the years, but your friendship sure hasn't...   

Set up a photo session to capture your lifetime friendship with Kimberly and love for horses. Celebrate with art that’s personal to your life and the animals you love.

What a fabulous day out. Glammed up with hair and makeup and a magnificent equine photo session to commemorate years of friendship — horse and human. 

  • Bring Your Team

To ensure your equine photo shoot goes smoothly, think about bringing your trainer or a horse friend along to help out at the session. Are you worried about getting your hair, makeup, and clothing messy while preparing your horse? It’s nice to have a handler to help out. And a real treat when your handler assists with setting up your horse... so you can walk right into the scene. Remember, it’s a day to pamper yourself.

Your horse and rider photo session is the perfect opportunity for you to be adventurous and remember...sometimes you need to come first. Working with your professional equine photographer isn’t just about the one portrait to hang on your wall. It’s about celebrating life with your horses over the years. Embracing life as it comes. Maybe our bodies change. The way we ride changes. But your relationship with your horse is what keeps you coming back for more slobbery kisses and nudges — and that doesn’t change.
