We all love our animals - think about all the cute dog videos on You Tube with man’s best friend at the altar.
If horses are your passion (and believe me, that’s what you need to take care of these beauties) why not engage in some equine themed wedding photography by Glass Eyed Pony. Lead Photographer Lyndsey Warren is a horse enthusiast and knows how to work with these magnificent, yet sometimes skiddish, creatures. And even if your beloved horse can’t make it to the wedding, you can set up a post wedding shoot in your gown. You can save 20% on this service when Glass Eyed Pony captures your engagement session or wedding day.
To learn more about Lyndsey and her unique niche in wedding photography, visit www.glasseyedpony.com. No horse - no worries. They like people, too!
