Boise Fall Classic Hunter Jumper Show

This weekend I photographed the Boise Fall Classic Hunter Jumper Show at the Idaho Horse Park in Nampa, Idaho.  It was a beautiful weekend but it was hot!  Everyone had great rides & their horses looked fantastic.  It is so nice to see riders progressing after each show/year.  

Here are a few photos from the weekend.  Enjoy!

JP Arabians - Part II

Last Friday & Saturday I went out to JP Arabians to photograph more of their sales horses.  Both mornings were absolutely beautiful, I couldn't have asked for better light for the photo shoot.  The horses were looking beautifully groomed and turned out for their modeling session.

If you are interested in owning an Arabian or want more information on any of the horses photographed here give Pat Anson a call at 208-888-0954.  

Here are a few photos from the 2 days.  The slideshows are going to be temporarily down due to programming issues with Blogger.  As soon as it is fixed I will start posting slideshows again.  Enjoy!

Bluenote Arabians

Last Friday I photographed a couple of horses from Bluenote Arabians Farm located in Emmett.  The photos were taken at JP Arabian's Farm in Meridian along with a couple of theirs that will be in tomorrow's blog.  It was a beautiful morning and the light was really nice.  Both of these mares are very nice with good minds and great movement.  They are for sale and if you are interested in finding out more information on them give Lyn Kinney a call at 208-861-1147.

Goodrich Farms

A couple of weeks ago I went to Baker City for a day and a half to photograph Andalusian horses at Goodrich Farms.  It is a beautiful farm located at the base of the mountains in the Baker valley.  I was lucking to see the elk come into the pastures at night with the horses - there is a picture posted below.

All the horses were very nice movers and had wonderful dispositions.  I had a great time visiting with Kristen Sandefur who owns Goodrich Farms with her husband, Eric.  I don't know much about the spanish horses but I came away with a greater appreciation of them.

These pictures will be used for there website that is under construction.  I will post a link later when the site is up and running for anyone interested in owning an Andalusian horse.

Enjoy a few of the pictures from the photo shoot.  I have a slideshow made but it won't load at this minute so I will try and post in a day or two.

Boise River Dressage Show

Last weekend I photographed the Boise River Dressage Show at Once Upon A Horse in Eagle.  There was a great turnout with many local riders & others that hauled in from Utah, Oregon & Wyoming.  It was great to see so many great rides and all the horses looked so nice!  

The show started at 7 am both days and the light was just fantastic for a few hours each morning.  On Saturday morning there was a cloud that just burst into a downpour while the sun was appearing, it made for a some really cool shots (the 2nd photo down).

I am a little behind in posting photos on my blog since I have been so busy with portrait work & this past weekend's horse show.  Look for a bunch more postings in the next few days while I get caught up.

Enjoy a few photos from the dressage show!
