Pretty Boy!

This is a test shot I took at a recent event I was at, I just wanted to share, he is such a pretty boy, to bad he was playing with his top lip, or this would be the ultimate shot for a rainy day!

Show fun

Two of my clients mentioned that they were going to attend the Naughty Nags Schooling Show in Ridgefield Wa last weekend. So I went up with my camera and played around a bit. It was a lot of fun, I hope I got some fun shots for people, if you see yourself, or someone you know, pass the link on please. Here are the shots I took if you want to peek!

Our Free Drawing Winner

Our drawing winner from the Mane Event was Barbara Creager, congrats Barbara!

Wednesday I went up to her place to do her free photo shoot of her 18 month old Morgan gelding, Chet. He's really a cutie, and don't pass this one up folks, he is for sale! I will be posting his information here when I get it if you are interested.

UPDATE: FEB 26 2007
Here's the information I promised on this gorgeous gelding,

Millenium Star's Sire is a multi-Grand National and Regional Champion named Bronze Promise. He's a beautiful dappled buckskin out of UVM Promise. His Dam is Serrr Classic Lady (she's a bay) and both sides go back to Flyhawk. He has a lovely floating trot, willing nature, is level headed, well balanced and very athletic. He has excellent confirmation, stunning good looks, and will make a nice driving, western pleasure, or dressage prospect. He has had lots of ground work and trailers, blankets and clips. He goes through water no problem and is UTD on shots and feet. He has a great mind and will be ready to start driving lessons this summer. $4500. Call 360.887.4766 for more information.

Magic

A recent trip to Eagle's View Ranch turned the rain from a disaster into magic... I went to shoot some sale shots, which unfortunately didn't happen because of the conditions, but it ended up "simply magic" as the horse owner and I rounded the barn door to this view. Thank you to Andy and Terry for having me out, we'll get it when the sun comes out! And to Beth Mantis who worked so hard to make it happen. Here's to new friends and acquaintances!

SIDE NOTE: This is one of my "fabulous Freebie" offers! The mare is only 2, she's an ISR, her sire is Westfalin, her dam is Tennesee Walker! Isn't she gorgeous!

A Fabulous Weekend!

All I can say is WOW!

Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth and said hi to us at the Mane Event this past weekend. We were overwhelmed with all of the traffic and all of your positive comments! We feel it was a great success, business was booming and we made some great new friends along the way. I can hardly wait until the next one now.

NEW!! Marketing Packages
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In late Jan, I met up with professional photographer Cyndie Planck, who did the first ever professional photo shoot of my mare, Provacativ. Cyndie not only managed to capture the essence of my mare, but also made her look like a show horse, even with her winter woollies! I was so impressed with Cyndie's abilities, style, and her warm and genuine personality that I approached her about partnering up on some projects.

It is with great pleasure that I announce to you our newest marketing service: a photo shoot and web site combination package. These packages are a great way to get your marketing really going by providing you with a professionally designed website complete with professional photos, digital proofs delivered to you, and an interview with you and your farm to insure that we get the perfect copy for your marketing materials.

Learn more about this great service!
