I went to my friend Aline’s house the other day to visit her and play with her 10-day old baby horsie named Terra!  I’ve been in love with the mommy, Eva, ever since I saw her – I think she’s the most beautiful horse I’ve ever seen! Her son inherited her beauty and grace, and added some attitude! He is so cute and hilarious, with such a distinct little personality.

First I took a few shots of one of their other horses, Stormy:

He followed me around the field, rubbing his nose on my shoulder.  He is such a sweet horse.

And here’s Terra:

I love those knobby knees!!!

And here he is, showing off his teeth, already growing in at 10 days old:

You can already see the amazing muscle tone in this beautiful creature. He has the softest coat I have ever felt, and his fuzzy mane and tail are too cute!

You can just tell how attentive his mother is. It’s so sweet!

Look at how his little nostrils flare up!  What a little attitude!

I know I got a TON of shots of  Mother and Son running together, but I am fascinated (and always have been) by their beauty and grace. Horses are so amazing and magical. They possess a grace and power that is both majestic and playful.

Poor tired mommy!

I am in love with how the sunlight hits their manes and tails in this photo!

Look at them, staring at me like models….   

Aline is such an animal lover – it is so inspiring to see her with her animals. She loves them so much and takes such a large part of her life making them a priority and taking care of them.

Here’s a little behind the scenes shot of Aline helping me to get those gorgeous running shots!

And of course, I couldn’t help but take a few photos of the vibrant Brisa! If you’ve been watching my work for a while, you’ve seen her grow up in front of my camera!

I’ll end this post with another baby animal: The day I visited, some baby chicks hatched! Here’s a cute one:

I hope everyone enjoys the long weekend! Happy Labor Day!!!
