This last week, I met up with Natalie at her home in the Rancho Murietta area. The whole crew was there including her horse Wrigley, Kai and baby Brady. The dogs greeted me as I pulled up: Oscar, Jean , and Shadow. Several of her other horses were out in the pastures as well.
Natalie is graduating from Chico State this May with a bachelor in Animal Science with an emphasis in Dairy management and a minor in Ag business. She started taking lessons when she was 8, and much to her mom's disbelief, never gave it up! Natalie currently does eventing with Wrigley and also shows Morgan horses in western pleasure and hunter pleasure.   Natalie and I got along wonderfully! As she put it "I am pretty country so dirt doesn't scare me" which is great for my style of shooting - traipsing all over the fields! and we laughed for about 2 hours straight!  At the very end of our shoot, Natalie put on a pair of boots and belt that I just Loved! How can you not help but love this belt! Click the below image to start the slideshow. Enjoy!
