Equine Photographer Sarah Andrew: Wizard in the Blizzard- Horse Snow Photos
Monday, 12/21/09: Over two feet of snow blanketed parts of New Jersey this past weekend. The snow is miserable for travel but spectacular for equine photos :^) On Monday morning, the sun came out and I trekked to the barns.
Photo note: For a lot of these images, I exposed for the horses’ coats, which overexposes the snow a bit. I shot manually or in aperture priority, depending on the background. There is debate about photo exposure in the snow, but this is how I do it :^)
Wizard and JR are absolute snow bunnies and they put on quite a show for me.
Next, I drove to my friend’s barn. Before I could get to the barn, I had to rescue a car from the driveway with Blue Thunder, the trusty tractor.
Paris was not as rowdy as the boys, but she looked quite elegant as she pranced and spun in the snow.
Bella and Kara were as happy to trot around as they were to groom each other when we removed their blankets.
Robbie, a Thoroughbred, showed off his athleticism and good looks for the camera.
Last but not least is Selena, who looked more like an Arabian than a Thoroughbred with her curled tail and animated moves.

Awesome photos!!! The horses should look like they were having a blast
Great photos! I love the way you do your snow pictures. I would rather see the horse’s coat and have the overexposed snow. I always end up with dark horses and you can’t see their detail. Your photos are incredible, as always! Thanks for sharing.
WOW. Great snow pictures! I have taken, seen, and sometimes paid for some really terrible snow pictures – yours are lovely.
JR is a filthy monster. I think all light-colored horses deliberately look for the nastiest stuff to roll in!
