It was a very overcast and extremely windy day at the Twin Towers Equestrian Park out past Fairborn, Ohio. Everyone said that it is always windy there, but this day the jumps kept blowing over and Ann had to have someone go to Walmart to get sandbags. I was amazed that the registration tent and the refreshments tent didn’t up and blow away completely. Most of the horses were getting their nice shiny summer coats.
Although there were clouds the sun poked through frequently and I ended up with a pretty bad sunburn on my face. I had sunscreen in the truck, but didn’t use any.
Everyone had a great time.
I have plenty of candids and portraits from the warm up area along with the actual competition. The little kids were adorable. Pictures will be available for purchase for a month or two, prices go up to my regular rates in a week from tomorrow so if you want to save 20% you better get your orders in. With as nice as many of the pictures are, I a perplexed as to why more purchases have not been made yet. I can only guess that people are not seeing the pictures, SO PLEASE send this link to the folks you know in that group and that show. Of course I can only give up days like that for shows that want me there.
Here is the link to the proofs from the show: Stillwater Pony Club May 9 Hunter Jumper Show
Here are a couple shots to perk your interest:
It was great getting to know some of you a little better. One family asked if I do senior portraits, you know with horses? Yes, I do. And when the grass is green and the trees have leaves is a great time to be scheduling those. But, it does not have to be just for seniors. I was just called for a co-ed graduating from college that wants a graduation portrait session with her horse and I love shooting kids on horses, but I am not limited to horse or horse with people portrait art. If you look through my blog, you will see families and children sessions as well.
So, I hope you’ll vote to have me back by making sure that everyone sees the photos and placing your orders soon. My 20% discount is my way to make sure you look soon before the distraction of other activities. Hope you all enjoy them.
P.S. I did rush to get the images up onto the site. I noticed that toward the end there are a couple small sections of photos that are too bright. I have been too busy to work on those this week, so if any of those are a pictures of you, please email me with the image numbers under the photos you have an interest in and I will adjust them correctly before you place your order. Alas, there are only so many hours in the day.
Also, if you are on FACE BOOK, I’d love to have you as a friend and you will be able to tag your photos for your friends to see (I always put up a couple photos from each portrait session and show). Here is my profile page: Peter DeMott
