I will never stop doing a little happy dance when The Horse Magazine comes in with my article as the cover feature. It’s only happened a handful of times and it always makes my day!

This week, I officially launched equine editorial photography! At Evergreen Equine Media, I'm now capturing pictures to bring horse magazine articles to life.

Available for both print and online publication, all photos come with signed model and property releases.

A big THANK YOU to friends and clients who have volunteered their horses to be photographed these past few weeks. You've been invaluable in bringing this passion project to life.

As I grow my gallery, I’m always looking for new models! Since much of my journalism focuses on educational equine healthcare, I'm hoping for opportunities to photograph sick (i.e., colic, laminitis) and injured horses, as well as bodywork and veterinary procedures.

For inquiries or to collaborate, please message me or email [email protected].

Happy new year, and cheers to this exciting new chapter! 📸🐴
