Horse Photography – Cisco

Filed Under: Photography

This past weekend I had my first little dip into horse photography. My cousin’s girlfriend, Carter, asked me to take photos of her and her horse Cisco. Recently Cisco was diagnosed with cancer. She has had him for 12 years, to say she is sad is an understatement. Carter wanted to make sure she got some photos with Cisco to always remember him. The cancer is pretty slow growing, they have no idea how long he will live, but I am glad I was able to capture some photos of them together.

I could definitely feel their connecting the short time I was there.

Cisco is such a handsome and sweet horse.

Thanks so much Carter for asking me to capture these special photos. I was so honored to take them! I really had a lot of fun. I hope I get an opportunity in the future to take more horse photos.

Still on my to-do list: a gallery wall and living wall, but I'm a bit nervous since I'm not exactly good at that. One day, though... I also dream of getting a projector to display scenes on the big white wall.

I'm going to miss my Halloween decorations when they come down - time to start scouring thrift stores for Christmas decor, I suppose! 🎄
Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I am so grateful to have my own library/plant space. 

It will be a few more months/weeks before it’s complete but I’m proud of how far it’s come. 

What I have left to do still: Get the top for my desk and seal it. Organize my craft stuff and put it on the shelves under my desk. Figure out my gallery wall above my desk. Order my @wallygrowplanters for my living wall. And of course buy more books and plants. 😆

It may not be perfect or Instagram “worthy” but it’s mine and I’m proud of all the time and effort we have put into it. The rug arrived today. I am so pleased with how it is coming together. Thanks so much to my cousin @r_holz9 for all her decorating advice and @em.e.hicks for putting up with my million text messages. IKEA bookcases will be here tomorrow. Then need to paint them and start moving my books out there. After I finish with that, I will work on my living plant wall. Not sure when my low bookcases and desk will be built, but it will happen eventually. Almost there. 🙌🏼
