Chloe Johnson & Moonie, photographed at the top of Badger Mountain in East Wenatchee, WA. What an eventful shoot we had, but always a blast! Chloe is wearing the Sola Sun shirt in Pine from Hannah Childs Lifestyle, one of my favorite sun shirts ever! Her belt is also from HCL, her purple shirt is from Riviera Equisports and breeches are from Free Ride Equestrian.

Michelle Peters and her sweet Arabian gelding, Kirby. Michelle got Kirby in highschool, 20 years ago and they've been together ever since! They've had many fun adventures together doing western gaming, jumping, camping, prize rides, and fun shows. Kirby and Michelle's son, Christian, have such a sweet bond; you can see it through the photos how much they love each other. It was so special to document these memories for them. Michelle's favorite and very fitting quote, “A gr

Meghan Marshall & her sweet mare, Flinn, photographed in Imlay City, Michigan. Meghan's boyfriend Trip, and her adorable dog Sadie also joined in for a few photos! Meghan rides and shows in reining under the guidance of Ceddia Performance Horses based in Ohio. Last year when I did Meghan's first session, she had Flinn at school at Keith's! I'm so grateful for another fun and beautiful session with Meghan and Flinn and I already can't wait for the next time!

A magical evening with Steph and Tim Gilliland at Tim's parents' ranch in Imlay City, Michigan.

Jenna Berghorst & Stretch (Immortalized) photographed in Holland, Michigan. We planned a second day for the Berghorst's family photos after Jenna and Ashley's session at the barn. The day before their shoot, they texted me asking if we could bring Stretch on a little field trip to the church for a few photos after their family session. How could I ever say no to such a dream location! And a dream it was. Stretch was such a good boy for us, we had the chapel all to ourselves,

Ashley and Jenna Berghorst, photographed at their barn in Zeeland, Michigan. Together, the girls have their three horses, Tom, Stretch, and Milton.

They're two of the coolest sisters I know, and I'm so grateful to know them and be able to photograph them for the 3rd time since 2021!

Sami Glaesemann and her little family, photographed in Quincy, WA. I've known Sami since she was born, so it was really cool to get to capture these sweet memories for her! I'm going to let her tell you more about her, since she wrote such a nice bio for me! "My name is Samantha Glaesemann I’m 21 years old and I’ve been riding since I could remember. There’s a picture somewhere of me on a horse, I believe I was a year old possibly younger....

She came to Chelsea horseless, but it ended up working out perfectly. She started riding with Chelsea with the intention of gaining more ride time and b

Brooke Birchard and her sweet three year old gelding, Baloo (VS Bro Code), photographed at Double E Ranch in McMinnville, OR. Baloo is in training with the best in the northwest, Chelsea Carlson. I photographed him as a baby in 2022 and it was so cool to see him all grown up! Baloo has big shoes to fill, as Brooke retires his mom, Kate, and plans to show Baloo within the next couple of years. I'm so excited to watch them progress together!
