Horseshoeing

November 30th, 2009, posted in Horses, Photography

We had a horseshoeing party yesterday. Dan and Lori pulled and trimmed all the Stillwater Ranch horses yesterday minus the “uncatchable” Wendy. I told Barb it is now my mission to make her my friend and catch her!

Here are some of the pics I took yesterday, I wanted these to have an old photo look to them. I really liked how they turned out.

Enjoy Bellas!

November 12th, 2009, posted in Photography

My neice and her high school sweetheart Jason were married this past Saturday in a beautiful park setting in Moreno Valley, CA. Victoria was absolutely stunning and Jason was a handsome and very anxious groom.

I attended and took some photos; below are some of my favorites from the day.

I still have some editing to finish; once that is complete I will upload all the photos I took from the day and make a slideshow for those that are curious.

Photos are for sale here. Please email me for the password.

Congrats to Jason and Victoria…I luv ya mucho!

Stillwater Ranch: Standardbred’s for Sale

November 11th, 2009, posted in Horses

Barb and Dalton of Stillwater Ranch have a couple of Standardbred horses for sale and asked me to take a couple photos of the beautiful 4 year olds named Jack and Jill.

A quick little bit of info on Standardbred’s:

Standardbreds are a breed of horse best known for their ability to race in harness at a trot or pace instead of under saddle at a gallop. Developed in North America, the breed is now recognized worldwide for its harness racing ability. They are solid, well-built horses with good dispositions that are also used under saddle for a variety of equestrian activities, particularly in the Midwest and eastern United States.

Below are a couple of quick shots I snapped for them.

For additional information please contact Barb or Dalton by following the link to their website: http://www.thestillwaterranch.com/

I don’t do much B&W conversions in Photoshop but I thought this was a classic moment quite befitting! :)

Stillwater Ranch Horses

October 10th, 2009, posted in Horses

I started my official first day as wrangler with Stillwater Ranch today; although I have been tagging along all summer long today was the actual first day as the real deal!

Here are sone quick snaps I took as we got to the field were all the horses are kept. Wish I wasnt busy grabbing horses and could have taken more of them running and bucking and trying to get away, oh well maybe next time!
