EVER WONDERED WHAT GOES ON "BEHIND THE SCENES" TO GET THOSE REALLY GREAT HORSE PHOTOS????
Well, it usually involves a strange looking "bear" and a reflecting mirror, lots of energy and an abundance of patience!!
Sometimes the horse gives you the look you want for the picture, and sometimes the horse just looks at you as if to say, "Why are you in that bag sneaking up on me???"
ABOVE & BELOW: Randi did a wonderful job directing the "bear crew" and was alot of fun to work with. After each shoot, she made a point of talking to the horse to tell it what a good job it had done for her!
ABOVE: At the end of the day, the photographer becomes the subject of the shoot...here shown with Skip & Jean's filly Mia Moniet. What follows are a few of the wonderful shots Randi took during her visit.
