Getting into equine photography has been one of the most fun photography experiences I've had in a while!

Thanks to Gina over at Dream Chasers Riding, LLC. for allowing me the opportunity to venture into this new genre! She teaches horse and pony riding lessons to all ages and is wonderful to work with. If you're looking for something new to try, take a look! There's even options for hand held pony rides for children. 🙂

For I went out and photographed with a theme. The historical structures are a great pairing for this style of photography and has me eager to explore the city some more.

If you have any photos of the blue water area that you adore, I would love to see them posted bellow! 😃

Some experimental photos from the car show at Ocean Breeze in Marysville, Michigan, July 22nd.

These were using a vintage Helios 40-2-C lens and some attempts at more aggressive editing. Some are good, some are not so good.

Stopped by Big Boy in Ft. Gratiot for Mike Shafers weekly Cruise In Events! Every Monday - Thursday he hosts one at different restaurants. Schedule can be found posted in the group Blue Water area classic cars/cruisers.

Needed to not get bogged down by these photos so these are all right out of my camera using vintage glass. Which on that note, here is the list of projects I am working on completing. Regretfully Some have been on the back burner for a bit now but I would rather be out getting the photos while these events are happening rather than miss out completely. But I will be making it a priority to catch up on these.

Port Huron Motorcycle Club Dirt Drags from June 11th
Blue Water Cruise Weekend cruise from June 24th
Blue Water Festival and Mannequins Making a Difference by Salon PiZazz! July 15th
As well as posting the photos from the 20th anniversary River Classic Car Show in St. Clair

Keep an eye out for all of these collections! Once they go live I will also be linking a SmugMug album for high quality viewing and print ordering!

This photoshoot turned out fantastic and can't wait to refine this shooting style.

If you are interested in having your car photographed in a special way, or think it's time to have some wall art made of it, get in touch!

Special thanks to Kel Lad and Angie Lademer for allowing me to use their beautiful Chevelle as a subject.
