Yoalis Huerta & her big bay gelding, Tahoe (Tahoka), photographed at Elysian Stables in Miami, Florida. We had fun capturing Yoalis' jumping lesson, where she dressed pretty in pink, jumping her "Barbie jumps," she calls them! Yoalis had her first portrait session with me last February; I knew the second I met her that she would become a lifelong friend! Since then, we have gone on a horseback safari in South Africa together, we've gone to the Bahamas together (well, I was th

Zara Humayun & her new boy, Carsen (In Private), photographed at Hunter Creek Farm in Southwest Ranches, Florida. I photographed Zara for the first time 4 years ago, see those photos here! It was so fun to see Zara again and create more beautiful photos together. I'm so excited for her and Carsen on their new partnership, I can't wait to see what they accomplish together...

Another year, another amazing session with professional dressage rider, Rebecca Cohen, at her dream equestrian farm in Wellington, Florida. This year, we had Ladavion, Fidell, and one of her newest additions, Dalton, join us for a beautiful but chilly evening of photos. See Rebecca's session from last year, here.

Nicole & Jonah Heinl, photographed in Loxahatchee, FL, with their two mares, Heidi and Stella. Nicole Schultz is an equestrian photographer who's had a camera in her hands for as long as horses have been part of her life. Growing up, there were never quite enough funds to fully support riding, so she often traded photography for lessons and show opportunities. One day, an older jumper mare named High Heels (“Heidi”) arrived at the barn where she occasionally took lessons. F

Alex Valle and Heza Kitten (Kitty), photographed at Williams Sporthorses in Wellington, FL. Usually, I will write a bio for each client based on the info they gave me, but I don't think I could write anything better than what Alex already gave me. So, in her own words, a little bit about her story with Kitty... My name is Alex. Like many horse-crazy little girls, I always dreamed of having a horse of my own- and that dream finally came true at 33...

No riding holiday would be complete without the perfect outfits! Deinhardt Designs helped me look my absolute best (and get tons of compliments) for my time in South Africa on a horseback safari last December. Ally at Deinhardt sent me two one-of-a-kind safari-inspired riding tops, the limited-edition Lynn top, several pairs of riding socks, and a pair of Halter Ego's full seat breeches.

This is a new addition to my annual review series: thanking my helpers for the year! I tried my absolute best to capture the behind-the-scenes including my incredible assistants from each session. I definitely failed at a few... I'm so sorry Katie Schols, lol. She helped me at 3 sessions and I didn't get a picture of her at any of them! But I could not be more grateful for each and every person that showed up to help me get the best photos for my clients. Without my assistant

Every year I sit down to write this blog post and I think, "this was the best year ever!" For 8 years, each one has just gotten better and better, and I couldn't be more grateful. I have the absolute best clients, friends, and models who have the most perfect horses, take me to the coolest locations, and enjoy the most gorgeous sunsets with me.

I spent 7 days at the magical wonderland of Ant's Reserve in South Africa with Yoalis and Tony (plus my husband, mom, and 3rd grade teacher and her partner... we had the best group ever) and we're all already dreaming of going back. I met Yoalis earlier this year in Miami, Florida, for her session with her gentle giant, Tahoe. I knew immediately after meeting her that we were going to get along really well; so when she and her husband decided to join us for this African horse
