PHOTOGRAPHY                                                                 

    As You Like It Productions is available to provide photography service to your horse show.  If you wish we'd be at one that you'll be attending, please ask the show manager to contact us.  We do not shoot at a show for which another official photographer has been hired. 

    2005 saw us completely convert to digital.  We have continued to upgrade - both our equipment and our skills.  We are professional members of several photographic associations and Carol's exquisite "First Kiss" was awarded third place in a 2007 international competition judged in Craig, CO!  
 
Award-winning First Kiss

    After much deliberation over the past couple years, in 2008, we have begun posting proofs online.  These are displayed in private galleries:  at each show, each exhibitor is given a postcard when they get their exhibitor's packet or number.  This postcard has the web address and password, as well as the date that proofs will be available - and a discount for ordering within 10 days! 

    Please keep in mind that professional photography is not "WYSIWYG"*Proofs are untouched - and watermarked.  Your finished image will NOT have the watermark.  Each order is carefully attended to in our studio, cropping done and minor adjustments made, if needed, before being entrusted to our professional lab, where your photograph is printed on lovely lustre stock.  Your order is then shipped to you, almost always within 14 business days.  Additional 'artistry' is available and can be discussed individually. 

    We remain committed to providing you with the best personal service - and we still feel that personal service is much more difficult when we go home and post proofs to a website.  However, increased customer pressure convinced us to go this route.  At the show - when time allows - our booth coordinator will be happy to use our state of the art laptop to illustrate some of the possibilities that exist in your proof (such as you see below).  Once you've gone home and are viewing your proofs online, if you have any questions or preferences, please do not hesitate to contact us (call or e-mail).

    Your extra-special photographs can also be "textured" to give a linen or pebble feel - or printed on metallic stock - or
Hahnemuhle watercolor paper - or presented as gallery-wrapped canvas.   We display examples of many (along with their proofs) at shows and we will be delighted to discuss these options with you.

    Sorry, we can't improve conformation or way of going - yours or your horse's.

    We show our appreciation to our show customers with a 20% discount on location shoots (photography or video)!

    Below are a few examples from our gallery.  Please visit our galleries, which are divided into equine and nature pages.

    All our work is protected under US Federal Copyright Law.   When you purchase a photograph, you are purchasing the right to enjoy that one photograph in a limited, personal setting.  Making copies - in any form - or using the photograph for commercial purposes is a violation of the purchase agreement and US Copyright Law.  This includes (but isn't limited to):  taking it to WalMart and making a copy; scanning it and putting it on your website or e-mailing it to your friends; or using it as part of a promotional campaign in print or online media. 

    Permission for any or all of these additional usages must be obtained in writing from As You Like It Productions and commercial usage may incur additional charges.  Think of it this way:  you want to hire one of our photographs to work for you (advertising your stallion/property/training or boarding service) - so you contract with it for specific work (a full page ad in ABC Journal or the focal point of My Farm website's home page) for a specific amount of time (one year).    


Graduating?

Best Friends  with you and your horse that says "YES!  That's who I am!"  
                                                                                            
Let us create a memory

Have a BARN PARTY!!  
Do you teach lessons (to non-boarders)?   This is a natural!  All your lesson kids get their pictures taken with their favorite mounts - who get extra-clean for the occasion!  Wouldn't this make great holiday gifts for mom, dad, grandparents?  Contact me, we'll schedule a day - then you fill in 30-45 minute "portrait blocks" with all your barn-mates who'd like a mini-portrait session. 

Show Managers:
