Morgan Cerny {2013 Senior}

Morgan has been planning her senior portraits with us ever since we met her when she was 14, so you can imagine how excited we were for this day to finally arrive!!!  Add to the excitement the fact that Morgan finally achieved her dream of owning her own horse, and you know that this evening was incredibly special!  She is a fun-loving, tried and true country girl - a woman after my (Heather's) own heart.  <3

We were blessed to have been able to capture Morgan's portraits on the last really warm summer day of the season.  It was an overcast evening, but the air stayed mild and breezy.  We loved the personality in the cloudy skies and the beautiful even lighting that perfectly highlighted Morgan's beautiful, golden hair.  Even though it got dark earlier than other nights because of the cloud cover, we had fun capturing images of Skeeter and Morgan racing around our back field.  Morgan specifically asked for a few shots combining two of her biggest loves - her horse and her country.  It was a bit tricky acclimating Skeeter to our strobe, but once he learned that the big flashy thing wasn't going to bite him, he performed great (despite being a bit of a hot head).

Morgan is such a natural beauty and seriously has the most beautiful skin we have ever had the luxury of photographing!  We had such a good time with her and loved how natural and flawlessly she posed for the camera.  If we hadn't all missed dinner, we probably could have photographed Morgan all night long.  Our stomachs, however, won over and we reluctantly wrapped up an amazing portrait session.

Thank you, Morgan, for a great night and for making your session so much fun!  We hope you LOVE your images and treasure these moments forever.

Sarita McAndrew {2013 Senior}

Sarita is our farthest traveled senior, to date!  She came all the way from Minnesota for her portrait session and we were fortunate the weather cooperated, since she was only in town for a few short days.  The day was a scorcher, so we waited until later in the evening to start her session.  Not only were we blessed with slightly cooler weather, but we were also fortunate enough to capture an amazingly colorful sunset!

Sarita's wish was to have her portraits taken with two of her favorite horses, Dollar and Leroy, but she also had the opportunity to grab a few with Romeo while she was with us too.  The night was gorgeous and we had so much fun posing and capturing Sarita in one of her favorite places in the world - on the farm surrounded by horses.

Enjoy these few teasers from Sarita's session and be sure to let her know what you think!

Morgan and Spencer {Equine Portraits}

There is something just so beautiful in the bond between a horse and his girl.  <3  Spencer and Morgan are so cute and we had so much fun capturing the relationship between the two of them during this mini equestrian portrait session.

The forecast for the day was all rain, but somehow we were able to sneak in a few images in and around Berwyck Saddle Club for Morgan.  We would have rescheduled since the morning was blustery and cold, but we were working against a deadline - Spencer was moving away and Morgan only had a few days left with him.  The portrait session was beautiful, but bittersweet, to be sure.  Enjoy these few teasers from the day!

Gabrielle Gow {Equine Portraits}

Sometimes spontaneous photo shoots can be the most fun and the most meaningful.  Kevin and I don't usually have a lot of free time, but this somewhat warm(ish) winter afternoon we finished up our work early and headed out into the back field to capture some spur-of-the moment shots of Gabby and Romeo.

I just love how they show the connection and bond between a horse and his girl.  <3  That's a relationship like no other and one to which I can fully relate.
