Over the last several years I have had the pleasure of working with Kathryn and her beautiful herd of horses! This year we had the opportunity to shoot at a stunning new location in Southern California for her holiday sessions. Houston, Rocket, and Calira were all perfect as per usual and I’m SO happy with the light we got to play with!

This year I decided to offer our Fall sessions separate from the usual Holiday sessions! This gave me the opportunity to create some new floral wreaths specifically for the season and riders were able to get their images well before November! I’m so grateful for every client I had for our Fall cycle this year and excited to be sharing Natalie and Gigi’s seasonal session on the blog today!

When I show up to sessions working with clients I’ve never met before, it’s hard to know what to expect. This particular one was quite fun and we quickly realized what a small world it was! Elinor was wanting some portraits with her heart horse Marco and asked me to capture the memories. What we found out upon arriving, was that Marco had actually been sold through the barn that I now work as a trainer!

Most of you may not know this, as it wasn’t something I was able to share much about till now, but this was my first year running Ashleigh Magnus Photography while also accepting a training position at my barn!
