I love getting to spend time on the Derrer Farm.  They have some of the most beautiful horses on their farm. The Derrer Family competes all over the country with their team of horses, a hitched team of 6.  It takes the entire family to make everything work.   This year they were champions, and wanted to […]

Abby was heading off to Kentucky for a barrel race she was chosen to enter with her two amazing thoroughbreds.  It was a big deal to be chosen, and it was such a cool honor to spend the afternoon with her sweet boys. These two thoroughbreds definitely are full of personality.  There wasn’t a moment where they […]

I love all things cowgirl and horses.  It’s so much fun to watch girls dress up and have fun pictures made with their horses.  Sydney was a sport because I had this fun idea of a cowgirl and her horse but with a guitar as well.  She came out to the farm to model for […]

Laura came out to the farm for an equine photoshoot! She is such a cool soul and totally down for anything.  We laughed a lot and put up with my dumbo horse, who was being a little buddy sour, but at the end of the day he did fine and everything came out amazing!
