This was a great experience for me. Not only did I get to work with friends, and horses that I love, I got to add a new skill. This was my very first family session with horses and I must say, I am proud of the work. In fact, the sun was a bigger struggle than posing the horses.
I have a small confession to make. Every time I turn over a client shoot, I get a little bit of anxiety. The anxiety occurs when delivering the final images. I know other artists feel the same way, but non-photographers don’t know what it’s like to hand over the images you’ve spent days, even weeks staring at, perfecting, making each image follow my vision and aesthetic. I find solace in that, if my client wanted a different aesthetic than mine, they would have asked someone else. Which of course makes sense, but it the moment of the handoff, I only think. I hope they love it. They did love itI!!, and I hope you all love it too.
