A Christmas Surprise - Koda Chesmore

At the beginning of November a good friend of mine, Sherrae, contacted me about taking some photos for her. I thought it would be for her and her husband, but instead she wanted pictures of her mother's horse, Koda Chesmore. I had never taken pictures of animals before, and Koda was definitely an adventure. Early on Thanksgiving morning, I met Sherrae and Jeff at the stable where Koda lives. We took him out into the arena and let his personality shine. He wasn't really happy about us interrupting his breakfast, but he warmed up to me. We were good friends in no time. Just like a 2 year old, Koda was a little temperamental, but that made it that much more fun! Thank you Sherrae for such a great opportunity!

An original collage for Koda

He didn't mind me getting too close, but he was going to watch me the whole time.

Beautiful horse

Sun shining directly onto Koda, made him look darker

This is a very sweet face

He was actually eying the hay


Ready to run

Such an innocent look

Knows he is getting closer to breakfast.

This was his good side
