This past fall I was nominated for “Business Woman of the Year – Up & Coming” with the National Association of Women Business Owners Boise Chapter. Christine Nicholas, one of my clients, nominated me and I was very honored to have made the finalists for my category. This past Saturday the NAWBO had a Gala celebration for all the finalist & to announce the winners. I didn’t get the top honors but was very happy for the winner & for the honor to be nominated.
I have come a long way since starting my business in 2004 photographing horse shows on the weekends while working a full time job to it being a full time portrait business specializing in equine photography. I want to thank all my clients from over the years because if it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t be here! I will say that it was a great experience to sit down and write down all the accomplishments I have made over the years. You don’t realize how much progress you made until you sit down & really look at your accomplishments. I have been taking the time this winter to look at how I want my business to look for the next 5 years. I am planning some upgrades to my website in the next couple of weeks along with announcing new products & marketing material in the next month or two. Stay tuned for more news, updates & new products!
Ben & I had a great time at the event! Here are a few pictures of the night. It was a black tie optional event so Ben & I got dressed up. You don’t get a chance very often to get dressed up in Boise so we take advantage of it when we have the opportunity!
Time for a little fun!
I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season!
I have compiled a slideshow of my best pictures from 2009, just click the link below & enjoy! (It might take a minute to load.)

I want to wish everyone a “Happy Holdiays”. I have had a great year photographing the shows & all my portrait clients! I wanted to thank everyone for your business. I am looking forward to the new year with some exciting new products & projects -stay tuned!
Enjoy the holidays with your families, friends, pets & your horse!
OK so I totally added an unnecessary “ing” to wishing. I proofed it a couple of times I guess I was a little crazed from the holidays!
I have been a little delinquent on blogging lately with trying to get everyone’s holiday orders done & delivered.
A couple of weeks ago I delivered Joanna’s book to her. She had a 10×10 Asuka book made for her and it turned out fantastic! This book encompassed the start of horse shows for Joanna in 2005 until this year along with a portrait session with her pony, Sweetie.
Enjoy the book!
Here is a comparison of the 10×10 book to the 7×7 book.
The start of Joanna’s 20 page 10×10 book.
Do you love this book & want one made for yourself – give me a call or send an email & we can talk about designing a book for you!
This past weekend I met my friend Lori at her house for some family pictures with her girls Addie & Ellie. It was really cold out so we stayed in for a few pictures. I used the light coming in from the windows for the girls’ pictures which lent itself well to black & white.
Here are a few of my favorites from the session – Enjoy!
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving & didn’t eat to much!
Last Wednesday I met the Howerton Family at Camelsback Park for some family photos. It was a bright & brisk afternoon with the pictures turning out great! Here are a few of my favorites from the session – Enjoy!

A few weeks ago I went to one of their Friday kid’s nights out parties to photograph the inflatables in the gym & the kids having a blast playing. Here are a few pictures from the night – enjoy!
A couple of weeks ago Ben came out with me to visit Denali (my horse). I haven’t taken many pictures of Denali this year – go figure since I am a horse photographer. As I left the house that morning I noticed the light was perfect that day for a black horse so I grabbed my camera. I was rewarded with a few great shots of Denali, and Ben even took a really nice one of us!
Here a few of my favorites – Enjoy!
This past Saturday I was at Jim Flynn’s Saddle Shop in Boise for their pet expo. Santa was there to have your pet’s picture taken with him. We had a great turnout until the kickoff time for the Boise State Bronco vs Idaho Vandals game (for those of you not from the area, this is the big in-state rivalry game). All the money collected from the photos was donated to the Northwest Animal Companions. They are a great organization – check out their website!
Here are a few pictures from the day – Enjoy!
