Did anyone else sing AC DC’s Back in Black when they first saw these photos? I know I did! I loved getting to shoot this sweet mare in my home state last month. At 25 years young, this Tennessee Walker was just as sassy as any filly I’ve ever seen. And as you can see from the crown, this gal is a queen and she knows it. This was such a fun shoot, but also somewhat challenging simply because black on black can be tough during the editing process.

5 Reasons to Book a Black Background Session

1. Any color horse looks fabulous on a black background!
If a black horse can look gorgeous on this background, then it’s clear that your horses’ coat will also stand out. I’ve taken photos of horses of every color on a black background and all of them have stood out in their own way.

2. They are truly timeless.
Unlike those family photos mom made us take at JCPennys growing up, these are truly timeless. It’ll be nearly impossible to ever date a photo on a black background which means these will last a lifetime. Just think about how gorgeous your horse will look hanging on your wall with this background.

3. There is no age, discipline or height limit.
Every horse large and small, young or old, can take a picture on a black background. Don’t limit yourself because of your discipline. No matter if you’re a trail rider, roper, eventer, barrel racer, or even a breeder, you won’t regret putting them on a black background.

4. Almost any building can be used to create these
A lot of the movie magic for these photos actually happen during the editing process. Almost any building with a wide opening and a closed back end can work for these. I’m not a miracle worker, but I’ve shot these photos in just about every building imaginable.

5. Great tool for marketing!
What better way to showcase your up-and-coming prospect or make your next sale than with a stunning black background to make your horse stand out. If you’ve ever been horse shopping, then you know how classy a black background makes a horse look. I know a sale ad with a horse on a black background captures my eye incredibly fast.

And another great thing about these photos is we have a ton of options for posses so we can show off your horses’ best assets. With so many great reasons to get these glamour shots of your horse taken, there’s no reason to delay. Book today!
