A Few Favorite Holiday Horses of 2021. Merry Christmas!

Equestrians in North East, Florida have spent the last couple of months gathering their holiday garlands, cutting ear holes in their Santa hats and decking their stalls for the perfect equine and equestrian holiday portraits. I’ve had the pleasure of photographing so many wonderful horses and humans this holiday season and assisting in the creation of Christmas and New Years cards that are being sent all over the world right at this very moment with hopes of arriving before Santa makes his landing on their rooftop!

St Johns County Horse Council/ Holiday Fun Show/ Hastings, Florida

I don’t photograph a ton of equine events these days, but when I do it’s usually for our local horse council. I love spending time at the St Johns County Horse Council events and specifically the fun shows! If egg and spoon is a class on the show bill, then I want to be there! The goofier the holiday costume the better. Here are just a few images from the December 5th event. Check out all the cute Santa hats and reindeer antlers rounding barrels!
