Fall Favorites

It has been a glorious fall here in the northeast but with a few frosty morning behind us we know that colder weather is just around the corner!
I have created a slide show of some of my favorite fall images here. Enjoy!

Senior Sessions

Fall is my favorite time of year and I always try to get out to make the most of the beautiful colors and light before winter sets in. I have been lucky enough to do some really fun senior sessions with some young ladies and their horses. Most recently I met up with Courtenay Chambers at the Plun Tree Inn in South Kortright for her session. The light was beautiful and we had a lot of fun exploring the buildings and surroundings. View more photos from
this shoot here. Please Note: I will be traveling to Vermont the week of October 3rd and will also be in Pennsylvania, Virginia, Maryland, New Jersey and North Carolina the end of October. Email me to set up a session at reduced rates!

End of Summer Light

During Labor Day Weekend we had a challenge shoot at EPNet to capture the End of Summer Light. Sunday morning I woke early and saw the fog coming off our pond and knew I had to go shoot it!

Despite getting soaked by the dew I was able to get some good photos of my little herd. This photo is of my Arab mare, Quill. See some more of the photos I created for this shoot here.

NEDA Fall Festival

Next week I will be teaming up with Carole MacDonald and Matt Baldelli to photograph the NEDA Fall Festival in Saugerties, New York. This is one of the largest dressage shows in the country and always a pleasure to photograph.

If you will be riding please make sure to send us your info (bridle #, ride time and day, ring #) ahead of time so we can make sure to catch your ride.

Enjoy these gallery of NEDA favorites from 2008 and 2009

See you there and have a great ride!

Fair Time!

I spent last week photographing at the Delaware County Fair here in my home town of Walton, NY. This fair boasts one of the largest agricultural exhibits and there is always a full day of horse activity going on. From draft horses to team penning to gymkhana and traditional horse show classes it's a real treat for me to have all this available to me in my back yard!
All the photos from the various days' events may be seen at this link. Enjoy!

Cross State Trail Ride

One of the joys of summer is being able to get out on a perfect day and photograph horses and riders enjoying some beautiful trails and the fellowship of other trail riders. Over the years I have found trail riders some of the best horse men and women and always appreciative when they see me on the trail with my camera.

This photo was taken at the recent Cross State Trail Ride in Brookfield, New York. This is an annual event that draws close to 100 riders from all over the Northeast. Photos from this ride may be seen here. If you recognize anybody please feel free to pass along the link as I was not able to make contact with everyone that rode.

I have always enjoyed shooting at the Brookfield trail system and plan to return in October for the Fall Pleasure Ride. It is hard to believe that Fall is just around the corner!

Finger Lakes Fjord Horse Show

I recently photographed the Finger Lakes Fjord Horse Show in Weedsport, New York. These little horses are always a pleasure to photograph, they have so much personality and are incredibly versatile and the owners love showing them off. The costume class was particularly fun and well attended this year.
Check out some of my favorite images from this event here, and if you were an exhibitor and still need access to the complete galleries drop me an email and I will send you the info.
Enjoy!

Quietude Stud Morgans

So many people commented on my photos of the Morgan stallion Quietude Jubilee Kingdom taken at the Quietude Stud in Hillsboro, West Virginia that I am sharing another photo from this shoot as well as the link to all the photos taken while I was there. Quietude has a large herd of Lambert bred Morgans that are a pure joy to photograph!
