Last Week In Photography - Horse People And A Construction Group
People who own horses are a breed unto themselves. It takes dedication and the commitment necessary to have a large animal be a part of your life. Boarding, medical care, feeding and the time spent emotionally supporting and bonding with an animal that large is a full time job.
Manny is a Percheron. Originally bred as war horses, Percherons today are often seen as draft horses and when standing next to Manny I’m always in awe as to his size. They’re generally 64 to 68 inches tall and often upwards of 2,000 pounds. It’s a good thing he’s a very gentle giant.
I’ve know Manny’s owners for years and have documented their relationship with him a number of times. He’s getting older and it was a beautiful day so we met to get another session done.
Later in the week I met with a construction group, one I’ve trusted with not only my kitchen remodel but with the huge job of restoring my studio after a massive flood when a storm caused a two foot sewage backup and the place was trashed.
We met at Riverside Park in Ypsilanti to photograph the business owner and his crew.
