Old Friends

So first off my sincere apologies! When I started this blog in August I had resolved to post at least once or twice a week - or not.... Life unfortunately just keeps getting in the way! So over the next few days I am going to buckle down and try to get caught up on the last month or two.

In September I payed a visit to a few old friends of mine, including one VERY special friend named Harvey. Harvey was the horse I rode during the teenage years of my life. To this day I have never had the privelege of sitting on a nicer horse. He is by far the coolest , kindest creature I have ever met on four legs! (Although my Phinn is a close second! ;) )

He is photographed here with Vanessa who took over the ride on him when I moved on, riding him to much success in the jumper ring. He may be a little past his prime, but the boy has got some serious get up and go!!! - Read - good luck getting him hauled back!

Here are a few shots from our informal session together:

Of course a trip to the farm would not have been complete without a couple of snaps with Karlyn! Karlyn is my photo buddy who used to help me out by taking a few pictures of ME now and then with my horses as I was feeling a little left out about always being the one behind the camera! ;) This young lady and aspiring photographer is just in general great to be around and a huge help, there whenever you need her! For this mini session she brought out one of the farms elderly ladies Spice who just like Harvey may be well into her golden years but still has spunk!




(Spice was letting us know just how she felt about being brought out and not being allowed to get down to business! (in other words GRASS!) )

As always it was great to go back "home" and spend a little time with some old friends. I actually got to go back and do an awesome "trash the dress" session the following week, check back for pictures from that session!
