ver the past few years, photography has become a passion for me. While I not only enjoy traveling to client's homes and farms to run a shoot and obtain my own references for a portrait, I also travel to many horse shows throughout the year to take photographs for reference for other paintings. From 2004 to 2006 I shot at many events throughout the Northeast, including draft horse pulling events, polo matches, and at dressage shows, including King Oak Dressage Days, and the Groton House I and II horse trials. I also shot for pleasure at top top hunter/jumper shows including the Devon Horse Show and the I Love NY Horse Show in Lake Placid. In 2007 I had the opportunity to shoot several large shows in Virginia with Ron Peterson, a professional show photographer.
