Equine Portraiture & Fine Art
Showcasing the unparalleled beauty of horses
Maria Celaya Photography offers a unique and artistic approach to Equine Portraiture and equestrian photography that celebrates the majestic beauty of horses. Understanding the deep bond between horses and their owners, Maria provides a personalized and gentle photography experience, ensuring that both the horse and owner are comfortable and stress-free throughout the session. By beginning the photoshoot in the familiar settings of the barn aisles or a covered barn, she creates an environment where horses feel at ease, allowing their natural grace and personality to shine through in every shot.
Specializing in stunning black background portraits, Maria utilizes natural light to enhance the luminous quality of the photographs, capturing the sleek, powerful lines and soft, soulful eyes of each horse. This technique not only highlights the athletic physique of the equine but also adds a dramatic and professional quality to the images. The setup is straightforward and non-invasive, ensuring no discomfort to the horses, with digital editing used to perfect the final look of the portraits.
For those who may have concerns about the suitability of their location for such photography, Maria encourages reaching out via email to discuss options. She is dedicated to accommodating the needs of her clients and their equine partners, making every effort to capture the unique essence of each horse in her photography. Maria Celaya Photography not only provides a service but also an unforgettable experience that results in beautiful, timeless portraits that owners will treasure forever.
