-Kelly
Hey there, I'm Kelly, a San Diego, California native, who grew up on tacos and surfing at La Jolla Shores. I now call Abu Dhabi home, a place I have grown to love over the last five (hot) years.
What I discovered through my own experience is that horse owners want photos, but we're always sweaty and covered in snot. We tend to take a random selfie...but unfortunately we sometimes end up looking like our horse.
Let's get you some beautiful photos, exchange funny stories about how our horses almost maimed us, and chat about our favorite saddle pads.
I can't wait to meet you and your horse!
GET TO KNOW THE PHOTOGRAPHEr
Start the process
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.
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.
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.
It's a literal fairytale come true!
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!
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!
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.

types of sessions–
The session will last about two 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!
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 250aed non-refundable fee, unless I can rebook that day, in which case I will refund the entire amount.
I will send over a contract that you can read and sign electronically, and we'll be all set.
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!
booking and what to expect
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)!
Book a session
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.
I'm only booking 25 sessions in 2022, so make sure to get on the calendar before they are all gone!
I can't wait to work with you!
