This stunning boy is Limited Editions Macchiato, an up and coming 3 year old Half Welsh stallion from Storybook Ponies in British Columbia. He was the weekend's unanimous grand champion in halter under four judges. I had the opportunity to take a break from the regular classes last weekend to do a mini session with him. "Big Mac" was such a nice boy, even with the walls of the barn shaking with car races rumbling only a few hundred feet away.

They have been sorted by entry number and days/times shown. Be sure to check out all of your photos. If you are interested in a weekend package deal, shoot me a message...I am willing to honor our specials through 5/30.

Can we take a moment to appreciate how STUNNING these three fillies born at Luzzi Barrel Horses are? 😍🔥🔥🔥 What a perfect shoot this was the other evening between the flowers, the lighting, and the subjects.

One of the greatest things about being a photographer is having families return time and time again for photos. I have the honor of building relationships with my regular customers and watching them grow in height, age, and also within the strength of their own bonds. Being able to capture loved ones living life is priceless. Here are some sweet photos of the Manning family, some throwbacks and some from this year ❤️

Getting to do one of my childhood best friend's engagement photos was probably one of the highlights of my life. We are in such different chapters from where we were well over a decade ago and yet no matter how much time we've spent apart, it only feels like a day since the last time.
Lex, we have gone through so much together and it's so crazy to think that you and Tyler are FINALLY ;) getting married! I'm so happy for this power couple and the things they will accomplish together. Love you guys!
