 It is always fun getting to do a photoshoot with Danielle and Chexie.  I had a lot of new pieces in the client closet that I needed to get some pictures of and Danielle was down to model.  We had an overcast day so it was perfect to get some moody western fashion pictures.  We […]

Maria was a blast to work with and down for whatever.  We had a blast shooting at different parts of the farm.  We got really lucky and had an amazing sunset.  Gus was being a little feisty for an old man with the cold weather but hes always usually good for the most part. We […]

I was excited to do another photoshoot with Dolly.  She is so chilled and laid back and doesn’t care about to much.  She is an older Amish Belgian draft horse so she’s seen a lot of stuff in her life.  We are excited to have her on the farm! Here are a few previews from […]

I was needing some content to use for some upcoming social media post and Katie was glad to volunteer.  She is so cool and so funny and a ton of fun to work with.  We did some quick pictures and a few videos because it was freezing and she was a trooper. It was fun […]

Dawn is the owner of Yonahlossee Stables at Pine Hill in Boone NC.  This is the barn where I got to ride on the equestrian team about 20 years ago so it is a cool place and it was so good to get to go back and visit. Dawn’s two grandaughters have some absolutely beautiful horses […]

Every couple of years I like to do a new updated video of what it is like to do a photoshoot with me behind the scenes.  Chase from Make Ya Famous Media came out to the farm to film the behind the scenes video.  Hailey and Kirstan came out to model and they did amazing! […]

It was so good catching up with Caitlyn.  We grew up together going to Elementary, Middle, and High School together.  It’s crazy how we grow up so fast and now we have kids around the same age. Caitlyn brought her little girl to the farm for a fun princess and pony session.  Gus was a […]

I love being able to work with other photographers, and help them on their journey in the photography world. I love seeing them thrive and learn something when they pick up their camera.  Stormi reached out about doing a live mentor session. I asked her what kind of session she had in mind so we could […]

2 models with 2 horses in vintage dresses

So I had this random idea for a photoshoot with a gas pump and a horse.  I just thought it would be cool out in the middle of a field.  I have so many random ideas if I don’t do them they will drive me crazy until I get it out of my head. Luckily […]

The Spainhour family is one of my favorite families! I grew up with Megan riding horses, and I swear, they have the best kids. Mattie is like a little sister, and one of the coolest teenagers you will ever meet! They brought their 85 feet long horse trailer, (just kidding it’s a joke, but it really […]
