EQUINE PHOTOGRAPHY

This is my specialty. I have been riding and training horses for ten years now and combining my love of these animals with photography is very rewarding for me. There is a special art to equine photography and I enjoy the challenge of capturing their beauty, grace, and spirit, as well as the unique relationship between horse and rider. Photography types include:

  • Family portraits with the horse
  • School pictures with your child's favourite mount
  • Senior pictures -- grad dresses welcome!
  • Selling an outgrown mount? Have photos to remember them by.
  • Wedding photos with your equine and other four-legged family
  • Show pictures
  • Stallion advertisement
  • Sale horse promotion
  • Christmas cards
Horse photos may be with or without tack, in hand, under saddle, or at liberty... the only limit is your imagination! I will spend the time necessary to capture high quality photos that you are satisfied with.

PET PORTRAITS

Allow me to capture your pet's adorable expressions and carefree outlook on life. The great thing about animals is that they never stop being cute... this goes for cats, dogs, birds, and even reptiles. I love shooting any type of animal -- with my camera, that is!

 

 

FAMILY PORTRAITS

I aim for dynamic family portraits that go beyond the confines of a studio. We will find a beautiful backdrop and make it a fun occasion rather than a chore. No group is too small or too big, and pets are welcome to join in.

INDIVIDUAL PORTRAITS

Senior portraits, creative school pictures, or a gift for your significant other are just some possibilities for the individual portrait. Feel free to bring along a personal momento such as an instrument or sports paraphenalia to add interest to the photos. Pets are welcome here, too.

 



WEDDINGS AND EVENTS

In the past, wedding photography was a formal and reserved task. I enjoy making wedding and event photos as entertaining as the rest of the festivities, with lots of candids and unique approaches to getting the job done. I've been known to climb trees to get the shot!

Please note that wedding and event photography prices differ from standard prices, depending on the length and coverage of the occasion.

For samples of my work, please visit the Portfolio or Proofs section. My session fee is $75.00 for the first hour, and $50.00 per hour thereafter. This includes a phone or email consultation in which we can discuss your needs, a dedicated on-location photo session, and an online gallery or CD of proofs. These proofs are for computer viewing only (they are not of print quality) and will include a small copyright line. You are welcome to save and email these or use them for any other computer-confined purpose, provided they are not altered.

Travel within fifteen minutes of Lethbridge is complimentary; any mileage beyond will be billed at $0.30/km.

If you wish to have prints of your images, you may either purchase these directly from me, or have the images put on a CD to handle yourself. However, your print quality is guaranteed if ordered through me, as my equipment is calibrated to print to certain specifications and I will ensure that your prints have true-to-life colour and accurate tones. Results from other photo labs can vary remarkably from the original photo file and getting the perfect print can be a time-consuming process.

Prices are as follows. Clients who had work completed prior to January 1st, 2008 will receive 2007 pricing on new work and reprints until July 1st, 2008.

I am also experienced in digital retouching and graphic design. I can remove blemishes or stray hairs, alter backgrounds, and convert images into black and white, sepia, or anything else you desire. I can combine images to design a professional tearsheet as well, or create a brochure. Pricing for these services is $40/hour, billed in 15 minute increments.
