Equine Photography that tells a story
-Kelly
I'm so excited that you are interested in choosing me to document your love of horses! Chasing sunsets and getting those gorgeous shots brings my soul to life. I want to create the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments together with your horse. I believe in images that are itching to be printed, placed in beautiful frames and hung on walls for years to come.
The moment I met my horse San Marino (you may know him, he's kinda famous), we had a connection that feels otherworldly. I know the roller coaster days all equestrians experience, and I want to capture it all for you!
I'm so excited you're here! Let's make some magic.
GET TO KNOW THE PHOTOGRAPHEr
welcome
I use an excessive amount of exclamation marks in professional emails!!!!
Because then my in-laws would have to acknowledge photography is a real job.
I'm socially awkward because I spend 90% of my time with horses and barn cats.
Reasons not to hire me...
Black background portraits are one of my favorites to shoot. They are dramatic, timeless, and make the best fine art pieces. This image can be of your horse alone, or of you and your horse together.
Black background portraits
These shots are of you doing what you do best, riding! I will simply take photos of you tacking up, walking your horse, training, and everything in between.
Horse + rider sessions
These are some of the most adorable sessions! We dress up your favorite pony and dress in a magical dress, and take some glowy shots wherever we can find green (which can be kinda tough in the UAE sometimes)!
Unicorn sessions
Jumping and dressage training sessions are so fun to photograph! We will get the best action shots from close ups to you flying over jumps!
Jumping and dressage
You can book competition coverage which includes tacking up, the warm up arena, the competition, all the way to awards! We will capture all the action and some!
Competition coverage
If you know that your soulmate may not be here much longer, please contact me for a discounted session. I want to capture your love in a way that will carry you through loss.

The session will range from 1-2 hours depending on the images you want, and will be taken at your desired location! This is the fun part and I promise to get you images you absolutely love!
The session
A 50% deposit is due when you book. This reserves your date in my calendar! If for any reason you need to cancel, tell me as soon as possible. There is a 500aed non-refundable fee, unless I can rebook that day, in which case I will refund the entire amount.
Once paid, I will send over a contract, and we'll be all set.
payment and contract
If you want to book a session, the sooner the better! My weekends and evenings tend to fill up pretty quickly - especially between November and May because of the cooler weather in the UAE, so the sooner you reach out to me, the more likely you are to get your desired date!

The Process
Image delivery
I aim to deliver photos to you between 7-10 days (but if I'm honest, it will probably be sooner because I can't help but edit right away)! However, I do take longer during the busy season.

I'm so honored that you're considering working with me to capture the love between you and your horse. To officially reserve your date, please send a note to Kelly (krains3@hotmail.com) or through my contact page (or Instagram), with your names, stable, ideal date and anything else I should know.
