Equine and Pet Photography

While many know me for real estate photography, my passion behind the lens extends far beyond homes. For more than 43 years, horses have been a central part of my life. As a lifelong equestrian and horse owner, I've developed an instinct for reading their personalities, anticipating their movements, and recognizing those fleeting moments that reveal the incredible bond between horse and rider. My goal isn't just to create beautiful portraits—it's to capture your story and the unique connection you share.

That same passion carries over to photographing dogs. Having shared my life with dogs since childhood, I understand their playful personalities, expressive eyes, and the little quirks that make each one unforgettable. Whether they're racing through a field or quietly resting by your side, I strive to preserve the moments that reflect who they truly are.

My love of animals also led me to raise alpacas for seven years. Photographing alpacas requires patience, observation, and sometimes a willingness to quietly wait in the grass until the perfect expression appears. It's an experience much like wildlife photography, where the best images come from respecting the animal and allowing its personality to shine naturally.

Whether I'm photographing a luxury home, a beloved horse, a loyal dog, or a curious alpaca, (yes and sometimes even their family members) my approach is always the same: I listen carefully, understand what matters most to you, and create images that tell a story you'll treasure for years to come.
