Your Equine Photography Session

A magical connection

Photographed with a Rider’s Eye and a Horse Lover’s Heart

As a lifelong rider I can speak with decades of experience - the love and trust between horses and their people is something that comes close to magic.  My experience in riding horses, and photographing them, means I know their angles, how to get great expressions and how to do everything safely. 

Ways you might enjoy a session:

Equine Senior Sessions - before or after graduation

Include your dog -have ALL your best friends with you

Equine bridal session -your favorite horse with your favorite dress

"It is always wonderful to work with Valerie ...

who captures exceptional images we all fall in love with. Hanging in our dining room is one of our favorite pieces Valerie created. She is extremely talented and professional. Our sessions have required a dog and a horse to be cooperative and she always understood their needs. We highly recommend going to Valerie if you want to capture amazing images that will last forever." -Kay S.
