Last fall, Barrel Horse News used some of my photos from my overseas trip to with Nedpoint for an article about international shipping. Check it out! This is the first time my work has been published in Barrel Horse News. You can read the article HERE.
Chris & Bec's Outback Wedding
Last year, Zach and I traveled to Western Queensland for the wedding of Bec and Chris Brayley. Bec and I met at Texas A&M while she studied abroad. We've kept in touch ever since, and it's been a dream to visit her homeland ever since. As luck would have it, we got to go to her wedding, and we had the privilege of photographing it. We've just said goodbye to our dear friends Chris and Bec after they came to visit us in Texas this past week. It was a privilege to share this couple's special day and I hope you enjoy the photos. The wedding preparations were held at a historic home on Maryvale sheep station, and the wedding took place at Chris's parents' sheep station in Morven. It was one of the most fun weddings I've ever attended!
Happy Anniversary Abigail Boatwright Communications!
One year ago today, I packed my office up at the Paint Horse Journal and said good bye to my assistant editor job of nearly five years to become a full-time freelance writer and photographer. It was a scary decision, but one I felt God led me to make and He has shown His guidance a lot in the last 12 months. I'm so thankful for the projects, clients, experiences and support I've received and I am excited about what the future holds.
- Future plans--I love every magazine I write for, and I'm excited to share the articles I have coming down the pike. I hope to write for even more new publications in the future. In the next year, I hope to write for other genres--women's interest, travel, lifestyle and even more equine publications.
- Future plans--I love every social media client I have. The variety of industries is exciting and I'm learning so much about each of their businesses. I've taken classes to enhance the skills I bring to my clients. I hope to improve performance on all platforms for my clients and perhaps gain a few new businesses.
- Future plans--Copy is a fun aspect of my job. I enjoy working with clients to make the words they print match their brand and goals. I am excited to see what businesses I work with in the future.
- Future plans--Photography is the area I'm most focusing on improving. I am shooting another wedding in 2013 and I have more portrait clients this fall. I'm doing event coverage and editorial photography in the next few months. I hope to expand my repertoire of genres and improve in every area.
International Horse Shipping article in June 2012 Paint Horse Journal
Earlier this year I had the coolest opportunity. I got to visit Amsterdam, and on the flight over I was a groom for Nedpoint. Flying with horses beats the pants off flying normally, and the story I got from the trip was one-of-a-kind. During the trip, I also got permission to take photos of the transport facilities that have not been previously allowed. My story appeared in the June 2012 Paint Horse Journal. Let me know what you think!
