We have so many new people following the page and I felt like it was a good time for those to see the face behind the name!
Hi! Iām Alayna, an equine and lifestyle photographer whoās happiest with a camera in one hand and a sweet ice tea in the other. Iāve been riding for over 10 years, and currently own two horses with my boyfriend, Dakota. We have a 4 year old Appaloosa gelding named Barney, and a 3 year old Appaloosa mare named Olivia. Som fun facts: Iāve known Barney since he was 30 mins old, and bought him a few days after he was born. And we bought Olivia in utero!
I love capturing people, their horses, and the little moments that make life feel full, like soft noses, shared laughs, warm light, and the connection that shines through when youāre able to be yourself.
When Iām not behind the lens, youāll probably find me at the barn, spending time outside, with friends, or making friends with animals that donāt technically belong to me. Fresh air, sunshine, and the people and horses in my life keep me inspired and grateful every day. I am graduating in May 2026 from Moravian University with a major in Environmental Science, and a minor in Biology, but my heart is with photography!
I believe the best photos come from genuine connection, a little patience, and a lot of heart. If youāre looking for someone who will cheer you on, help you feel comfortable, and capture your story in a way that feels true to you, Iām your girl š¤
