EQUINE PHOTOGRAPHY


A LEGACY TO LAST A LIFETIME- CUSTOMIZED TO YOU & YOUR BEST FRIEND


Here at Ella Chedester Photography, you can expect an experience as unique as you. Every one of my sessions is hand tailored to you and your horse so we can make the most of our time together. Will we be spending the day with your heart horse, soaking up all your favorite places around the barn? Are we celebrating your upcoming high school graduation and successful junior career?

TWO WAYS TO CREATE

Lifestyle

Lifestyle portraits are taken outside in the open light and can feature you with your horse, or just your horse on their own! They are the perfect choice for senior photos, your horse at liberty, or for including your barn's gorgeous scenery.

FINE ART

Fine Art Portraits are taken using only natural light and the entrance to your barn or arena. These portraits are a combination of photography and digital art, and can be done on a black, white, or custom background.
