As a California Equine Photographer I BELIEVE CAPTURING IMAGES IS A FORM OF STORY TELLING.

HERE ARE A FEW OF MY FAVORITE STORIES of horses and the people that love them.

San Luis Obispo Senior Session

SLO High School Graduate – Bella M.

For this San Luis Obispo Senior Session with Bella, we lucked out with warm Fall weather and a stunning location. Bella is graduating from SLO High this year and we celebrated her graduation in a way that completely fit her personality – on a ranch. Since Bella participated in FFA, we went to the ranch where she used to keep her show steers. Countless hours have been spent working hard to present the best animal possible at the Fair and Bella has been very successful doing just that.

The ranch is similar to many in SLO county in that it is hidden in plain sight. Right off highway 101, the town life gives way to rolling golden hills and coastal oaks. Because of this, its no wonder I love SLO county so much. It’s quite possibly the most peaceful place while still being fun and exciting with so much to do. I absolutely love SLO and I love hanging out with people that feel the same way. So needless to say, Bella and I had a great time together.

In addition, Bella’s senior session was a complete SLOCAL effort with local friends and vendors. Her hair and makeup was done by Jenn at the Queens Bee’s in the Creamery. Her lovely dress was from Ambiance in downtown SLO in Higuera street.

I tend to photograph San Luis Obispo senior sessions a lot in May and June for Cal Poly students and in the Fall for high school students. I’m excited to say session slots are filling quickly this year! Therefore, contact me here to book your Senior session and congratulations graduates!

Hey There!

I'm California Equine Photographer Elizabeth Hay. Call me Beth. If you love the smell of fresh hay, a clean horse, the sound of a nicker when you walk towards the stall, and you think dirty boots are better than clean — you're in the right place. Welcome to all the bloggy goodness.
