Over the winter I licensed some photos I took at the Geneee Valley Hunt Races to the National Steeplechase Association for use in their annual yearbook. I had a vague idea of the project, but for some reason had assumed that the final product would be something more akin to the thick 1/2” Dover Saddlery catalogs that used to come biannually growing up.

I had asked them to send me a copy of the yearbook upon completion, so imagine how shocked I was to find this beautiful hardcover in my mailbox last week! It’s full of history, gorgeous paintings, info and results from all of the NSA sanctioned races this year, and hundreds of photos from each event across the country. Definitely one of the coolest things I’ve l contributed to.

A handful of photos from a session I did last October but never got around to sharing. I love when clients decide to include their smaller four-legged friends in the shoot also!

I spent some time in Maine a couple weeks ago, and one of my favorite parts was hiking the coastline at night. It was during a full moon and the way it lit up the ocean and the pines was so pretty. The images below were taken during the blue hour and a bit after into darkness, but the exposure was so long that they almost look like daylight. I rarely use slow shutter speeds and almost never shoot at night, but this landscape was magical. More of the Maine mountains and foliage to come later.

Catching up on posts over the next few weeks since I’m super behind. Back in spring/early summer I made a semi-impulsive decision to adopt a completely wild mustang from Colorado. It ended up not working out for several reasons, but of course I snapped a few photos of her first. She’s now thriving in a home with her new kid.

Occasionally, I actually take a photo of myself. I didn’t have a lead rope on her here, I just knew that if she was going anywhere it was to the nearest patch of grass. Clearly she understood the assignment.

I hopefully have a temporary fix to the computer situation so I’ll be catching up on a bunch of photo sessions this weekend. Fingers crossed I can resolve this for good sooner rather than later 🤞🏼

It’s killing me to not be able to share autumn photos with you guys (my computer has been in the shop for a MONTH) but luckily I still have these perfect summer snaps from my shoot with Sophia and Mason to show! A reminder of warm summer days as we move full-speed ahead towards winter.

Another summer shoot. This mare was sharp! I don’t think I’ve ever worked with such a pristine grey horse, and she pretty much posed on her own. It all certainly helped shorten the time I had to spend in photoshop 😅

About a week and a half ago I went downstate to do a small photo trip of sorts and I had a great time. I met a bunch of new people and ponies, shot in new locations, and spent time with family, friends, and colleagues.

However, the first stop on my journey was actually right down the road in Geneseo. I was asked to do some promo photos for Elaina from The Alston Project, as they’ll be performing at The Riviera on 8/27 as part of Geneseo Jam Kitchen. It was really fun incorporating Geneseo’s brand new mural (part of the recent LivCo Walls initiative) into her photos.

After that, everything got sent over to Joanna Walters (co-owner of The Gallery in the Valley) to do the lettering and design for the final product. Here I’ve included the finished poster as well as some additional shots that were in the running!

Overall it was just a super cool combination project of several different kinds of local art. I loved my time as a student in Geneseo but I feel like the town has seen an increase in creativity over the last two years in particular and it’s awesome.

Anyway, keep your eyes peeled for the physical posters if you’re in town, and you can find tickets to Elaina’s show below!

I’m also excited to share that this weekend I will be second shooting for Brant Gamma Photography at the GVRDC Horse Trials. I’m looking forward to watching everyone and wish only the best of luck to all of the horses and riders competing!

One of my favorite parts about living in a horse-centric area is that, on any given weekend, the chances are pretty good that you can find an activity or event to attend that will take you back in time to when they were an invaluable part of the community.

Yesterday I went into town for some photos of WNYCAA’s Parade of Horses, which happened before day 2 of their 1st annual Avon Driving Park Pleasure Show. There was plenty of perfectly polished brass and immaculate russet leather to be had.

If you were a participant and would like to view the rest of the photos, just follow the Google drive link below. Feel free to use and share as you’d like, and it would be great if you could give the page a tag!

This morning I attended my first WNYCCA driving show to observe and get an idea of how they’re run. This pair was impeccably turned out and easily my favorite of the day.

A few images from a session I did this winter that was almost exclusively black-backgrounds, but there was certainly no lack of color between these two!
