Rachael's work hangs in galleries and private collections all over the world. She is known for her unique angles
and attention to her subject matter and natural light as she focuses on each horse’s personality and soul - “When
I capture that one moment I know it. It may be as simple as the horse turning to look at me, but when that flash of
an instant reaches out and seizes me, I know I just received a precious gift and I am grateful to my subject for
generously sharing a brief view into the window of its soul. I am simply grateful to all the horses I photograph for
showing me secret places within them. It is a great honor for me to photograph such precious beings.”
In 2006 Rachael did her first equestrian fine art calendar "The Essence of Being Equine" and donated the profits to
her favorite equine charities.
