Equine portrait Photography

Once Upon a Time, your Horse and You!

Your relationship with your horse is not a gentle hobby, it is a passion.

You know the feeling of eating dust, of hitting the ground more times than you can count. Yet, it's the resilience and determination to get back on that shapes you, teaching you to persevere, embrace challenges, and never give up. Your unique tale celebrates the bond you share and the experiences you’ve had. Every moment is special, from the challenges you've overcome to the victories you've achieved. It's a story worth cherishing and remembering.

Hi and Welcome! I’m so glad you stopped by.

 

​I’m Erica, an Equine Portrait Photographer and I love how light can create an aura of magic; I capture classic, magical, and captivating images that showcase all the unique and special features of you and your horse.

​

I have been horse crazy all my life. In fact, I think the very first time I spoke, I was pointing to a horse and said “Mine!” So, I totally get it when the highlight of your day is the time spent at the barn, how your heart melts when they follow you everywhere, and how those soulful, expressive eyes seem to understand your every thought.

 

As a seasoned rider and horse owner, I know how to showcase your horse and capture them at their best. I love to incorporate laughter into all of my photo sessions, not only does this keep the session light on stress and anxiety, but it creates an environment for you to truly be yourself and have fun.

 

After her session, Ryle commented, "Erica's patience and calm aura make you feel very relaxed around the camera and she really takes the time to nail your vision!" It's my goal for you to enjoy your session. It's my fortune to be able to document these precious memories for you! 

​

Tell me all about the horse that captured your heart!
