2008 Past Shoot Archives l 2009 Past Shoot Archives

Award winning photographer Linda Finstad has over 20 years experience working with horses and dogs, as a show rider, trainer and photographer. She will gently guide you and your animals into a variety of poses to create exclusive on location portraits. All you have to do is smile.

Whether you want casual portraits that capture that special relationship between you and your horse, or classic conformation shots. Linda will strive to achieve the image you have in your mind. Action shots either ridden or liberty are always a fun part of any equine photo shoot. We guarantee your horses will be photographed in a way that enhances their natural dignity and grace.

Capturing your animals unique character takes time and patience, more of both are required if you want to add children to the picture.

Linda will spend time becoming acquainted with the animal and discussing what you would like her to achieve in this special portrait. The animal’s owner is required to be present throughout the session to keep their animal relaxed and assist in the photo shoot.
