I can understand why some might think this way\u2026.they can be unpredictable, they have no quarms about showing their raw emotion, &#038; they make you earn their trust!<\/p>\n<p>\u2026Yet, the rewards can be priceless!!!  Take a recent summers evening in the Craigantlet Hills where I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing Chilli (&#038; Sarah). The sun split the hills and made for the perfect background for Chilli &#038; Sarah\u2026they could have been riding off into the sunset\u2026albeit Sarah had school the next day!<\/p>\n<p>I dread the day Hollie (my 3yr old daughter) says \u2018Daddy can I have a horse?\u2019.  Why?  Because of the commitment &#038; sacrifice needed..never mind the courage needed to ride a horse!<\/p>\n<p>I have a new found respect for horse riders &#038; owners \u2013 not only do they have such courage riding them but the commitment needed to take care of them day &#038; night, summer through winter can only come from the love of the animal and the sport!  Which is why I was so excited for Sarah\u2019s Lifestyle Portrait session \u2013 it was more than photographing Sarah jumping fences (which I was thoroughly impressed by) \u2013 it was about capturing the bond and emotion between Sarah &#038; Chilli. From the grooming, feeding &#038; preparation in the stables\u2026. to the fence jumping\u2026.to the galloping across open fields!  It\u2019s a hobby that shapes your life\u2026it\u2019s a lifestyle!<\/p>\n<p>Check out some of the photos from Sarah\u2019s session below. I love the moody black &#038; white photos, yet the sunset really adds fantastic light to the outdoor shots. I hope you enjoy them.<\/p>\n<p>Please feel free to share this blog with your friends\/family!
