HUG your HORSE is back! | Salmon Arm Equine Photographer

Did you know February is JUST around the corner and that means It’s time for my 2nd annual “Hug your Horse” contest for a chance to win a photography session with me!

~ One shot of Jess & Cole ~

 

All you have to do to get entered is email or message me with you and your horses name and why you would love photographs taken together.

It’s just that simple!

On February 14th I will draw 2 winners, yes I said 2. Why not, because 2 is better than one , right?

Contest is open to those individuals who live in the Okanagan, 100 Mile House, Kamloops, and the Lower Mainland as I travel often to these locations.

So please share this post…what do you have to loose?

All Good Things | Salmon Arm Equine Photographer

It looks like winter is now upon us and I’m gearing up for an awesome 2012!

This will be my 4th year photographing horse shows and I want this to be the best year!!  As some of you may know  this will also be my last year as a general horse show photographer. It was a tough decision but also one I need to do for myself and my business.

However I’ll still continue to conduct portrait and farm photography and would like to work in the area of a personal photographer for farms or barns at events. Devoting my time and talent to them and their horses as they compete.

Feel free to contact me I would love to photograph you and your horse.

Topline Show Park – Year in Review Part 2 ~ Salmon Arm BC Horse Photographer

What a year! I had my best year a Topline Stables and I couldn’t be happier it’s wonderful to come to a place where I always feel so welcome so Thank you Sonya and King for running such a wonderful facility for riders of all ages and abilities.

This is the second half of my 2011 Topline in review, it covers a Horse Trial, Pony Club Rally and the Fall Finale. I can’t believe I just went thru a years worth of jumpers,  leaps, strides, extensions, collections, hugs, laughs, and tears. When you love being around a sport, being around those who are passionate about that sport it makes a 12 hour day braving the hot sun or rain worth it. When you love what you do, nothing can stop you.

I hope you enjoy these as much as I did taking them.

** DON”T FORGET COMMENTS THAT CARE only 3 more days to comment for BCIHRS**

TJ Drake - I always look forward to looking through Andrea’s pics. On more than 1 occassion I have used them as my screen saver!!! I have always said to her; and everyone else that if I could never ride again I would gladly take pictures of horses in place-and I would learn from Andrea!!! I am quite able to ride still but the more pictures I see the more I’d like to go with her one day anyway:)

admin - Thank you TJ :) you warm my heart!
