Back in June I spent a late afternoon/early eve with Shana. Although she's just entering her senior year she's far more mature that many people I know in their late 20's. She loves riding horses, and is a instructor at a local stable as well. She in fact is my own 9 year old daughter's riding instructor. Couldn't be more please with her as a role model.
We spent most of the shoot at the stables, and then moved to an adjoining park to finish up. The lighting was changing fairly rapidly especially toward the tail end of the shoot, so many shots vary in look. I also used speedlites to varying degrees for a number of the shots ranging from main light to subtle fill.
She and her family were very happy with the results, but I know I have a tougher and more discriminating crowd here. I always hope to learn from each new shoot, so I welcome CC if you care to offer it. I'm sure much of the feedback and nits I'll receive I've probably already called myself out on. Let see... TY
Oh, a few of these I posted on there own back in June when I first started processing, so they may be repeats to a few of you.
1 - One of the stable's tack rooms- In hind sight I could have shed a little more light on the far background.
2 - An almost silhouette shot, but wanted a hint of her face barely visible. A personal taste thing perhaps.
3 - With her favorite ride...

8 - I had her ride in loops in this area until enough dust was kicked up to play with the sun filtering through the trees.
9 - At the nearby park now... Was doing walk away shots w/over the shoulder looks, but like this semi-candid better.

12 - With her good friend and fellow "Barn Girl"... Another sweet young lady. I have a few images of her I may post later.
13 = An outtake of them being silly while I took test shots. I had a CTO that was a too much on this shot. Again was a test shot, but I like the playfulness, and so did she... this was one she printed.
14 - It was seriously getting dark by this point, so this is strobe lighted with a umbrella if I recall correctly.
15 - One more with both girls...
16 - As I was packing up we fit in one last very of the cuff shot. Not great in my eyes, but she liked it. A bit different processing too.
