I still miss the GRC Photography days — where they’d sell you a thumb drive on show day with every single photo taken of you for $99 ($79 if you brought an old thumb drive with you….). But I try to support this next generation of photographers.
They’re out there all day long, capturing the moments, ya know? The current business model doesn’t make a ton of sense to me, as prices vary wildly across different vendors and prints are somehow cheaper than digitals… C’est la vie tho! I actually kinda like getting the prints anyway!
So here’s a collection of my favorite shots from our Loch Moy outing earlier this month, used with purchase from the excellent team at Erin Gilmore Photography <3 <3 <3
Those are some great photos - love how locked in she looks
ReplyDeleteSaaame — it’s super apparent in the helmet cam too, she is straight up always looking for the next fence and taking us directly to it lol, feels great!
DeleteThose are so lovely! You look so in sync in the one with the beautiful colors.
ReplyDeleteWe are SPOILED around here with photographers. We have Lisa Madren at almost all the local schooling shows and jumper rounds and her pics are super reasonably priced. Then at the bigger winter events we get xpress foto who does a package of all the pics for $129 (I believe, if you pre-order).
Ooooh that’s such a good deal! I’m such a junkie for photos I would 100% buy every single pro pic if they all offered bundles like that. Which would realistically double or triple their profit on me (for example this selection of pics posted here cost $40 for the 8), and presumably others too…
DeleteLovely photos, I can see why these are favorites! I miss getting/buying ride photos, I admit being tempted to hire someone to follow me around on the trails and also get some nice family photos for our holiday card haha
ReplyDeleteYou totally should hire a pro to do a session one day! We have a photographer at my barn who will often do an entire days worth of sessions with various barn mates and friends
DeleteWhat beautiful photos!! You both look happy and focused. Congrats on qualifying too!
ReplyDeleteThanks ha I really don’t understand how the qualifications work… I guess you just have to pay for enough entries and not get killed along the way, and voila - you’ve qualified! Lol
DeleteWow! I've been missing out - look at this gorgeous event horse, cruising around! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteThanks, how nice to hear from you — hope you are doing well!
DeleteThose pics are awesome!
ReplyDeleteThanks - I was happy to get some good ones, esp after our last event where…. The pics mayyyybe reflected that we were a bit of a hot mess LOL
DeleteI ALWAYS love event photos, but these ones are extra special. There is just something about the atmosphere in them. It's a whole MOOD. I love your grin in the last one, and the relaxation in the first one, and all the beautiful jumping in between.
ReplyDeleteThanks! These photographers did a great job framing their shots!! Fun fact tho, the last jumping one shot from the ground was actually one of those automatic cameras with a sensor, and doozy 100% spooked when the thing started whirring and clicking right as we were midair LOL
DeleteYou two look absolutely professional across country!
ReplyDeleteThose are great photos. It’s hard to pick a favourite.
