Photo finish: Went to Laurel Racetrack today. I haven’t been back here in a really long time. It was a nice day and I loved photographing the races. I hope to get back before they shut it down completely. These three were in a battle for second place . The middle horse was 2nd, the horse on the rail 3rd, and 6 horse was 4th. Exciting!

Gypsy Vanner Stallion taken during a Shelley Paulson Photography retreat in Minnesota a couple years ago. Until this week, I have never been as cold as I was during this photo session. I am looking forward to hopefully warmer temperatures and please make the wind stop!!
I would Love to do some pretty winter photos for you when the blankets come off! If you have an equine photography need, please get in touch. The snow would be perfect for a different kind of portrait session.

Last Fall, I photographed Tori and her beautiful mare for a Fall Senior session. It’s not too early to schedule your senior session with your horses! I know I am definitely looking forward to some warmer weather !

Cunga?: I am certain only 5-6 people I know will understand this word, BUT it basically means huh?? It’s one of the made up words that that my friend group used way back when we were kids- before “6-7” and “mid” were even a thought. Maybe a few of my friends will post some of our other words here 😄. In any case, Poker Champ is a little confused about why I am the ground with the camera, instead of feeding him carrots immediately. Horses’ ears express many different feelings- it is probably the first thing any good horseman should know before anything else.

Black and White: I like the contrast. Off track standardbred, Buzz, on a cold, winter night.
This is a pic from my ongoing photo challenge. Trying to post an image/day for a year. The pix are posted on my personal page - Bridgette Daugherty

Profile: Poker Champ ❤️♥️🖤, another of our off the track Standardbreds. He’s a big boy, 17.2 hands. He is Blox’s ride or die- at some point I’ll have to update pix of them together. Blox is not very partient regarding that topic- you all should get on him about that 🤣😂

Assateague stallion photographed summer 2025. It was raining pretty hard and I just like the way the drops fall in this image. 💧☔️🌦️
