Charismatic Aged Broodmares

I truly believe that some horses know I'm there to immortalize their spirit for eternity -- Tiger & Lynette are two of these horses. These gals are older (25 & 27, respectively) but they still have quite a spark in their eye. Lynette especially has a "je ne sais quoi" or "certain something" about her. I guess you'd call it presence.

They are both by the famous broodmare sire Tiger Leo. Their owner JD simply wanted some quality images that captured their sweet personalities, great conformation, and beautiful movement. When I showed him the proofs, he said the images made him so emotional, he nearly wanted to cry. He's not exactly what I'd call an über-sensitive guy either. ;)

That's one of the nicest compliments I've ever received, thanks JD.

Here are some of my favorite proofs from the day - none have been retouched yet:











































































































































Can you believe these gals are 25+?!
