About Me
Unbridled Media Eq
YEARS as an EQUINE PHOTOGRAPHER
Chicago's North Shore offers a blend of natural beauty and equestrian opportunities that captivate my heart. I'm excited to explore all things equine in the Mid-West.
In addition to my equestrian pursuits, I am an dog mom to an Australian shepherd, Luna. We are also a military family, with my husband serving in the U.S. Navy. His new orders are what led us to the North Shore, and we're excited to embrace this new chapter of our journey.
Greetings from the beautiful North Shore of Chicago, Illinois! Yes thats right I have moved from North Florida, but don't worry I am still Florida based in the winter. I'm thrilled to welcome you to Unbridled Media Eq.
My love affair with horses has been a lifelong journey. These magnificent creatures have been my steadfast companions through the seasons of life. As an adult amateur rider, I understand the unique joys and challenges of the equestrian world, and I'm passionate about sharing these experiences with fellow riders.

An Adult Ammy
The early mornings at the barn, the soothing rhythm of grooming, the satisfaction of a well-executed ride, these moments are priceless. I am an adult ammy who splits her time between the hunter/jumper world and most recently the AQHA world of reining! Learning a new discipline on a new horses has been both challenging and deeply rewarding. I have always loved learning so this transition has felt like an exciting new chapter in my horse girl life.
A Nikon Girl
I picked up my first Nikon in 2006 and honestly never looked back. It was there through my early horse girl years, learning light, chasing motion, and figuring things out one frame at a time. As my work evolved into equestrian sport and military storytelling, Nikon stayed my constant. Familiar, reliable, and always ready for real moments, not just perfect ones.
A Military Spouse
As a Navy spouse and a Navy brat, I've had the privilege of witnessing the strength, resilience, and sacrifices that come with a life deeply intertwined with the armed forces. Growing up as a Navy brat, I learned the true meaning of adaptability. Frequent moves, saying goodbye to friends, and embracing new environments became second nature. Now, as a military spouse, it's a life marked by separations, homecomings, and the deep bond that forms within the military community.
A Travel Lover
Travel is my compass, and wanderlust my guiding star. Exploring new horizons, embracing diverse cultures, and savoring the thrill of the unknown are the heartbeat of my existence. The world is my playground, and every journey is a chapter in my story. What makes my wanderlust even more fulfilling is that my job as an equine photographer allows me to seamlessly merge my passion for travel with my love for horses.
A Dog Mom
Being a dog mom to Luna, my spirited Aussie, is an adventure filled with boundless joy. Luna's enthusiasm for dog parks and hikes is infectious. Watching her bound through the open fields and splash in the streams is a constant reminder of the simple pleasures in life. She's a loyal and adventurous companion, always up for new trails and new four-legged friends. Luna, with her boundless energy and boundless love, has added an irreplaceable dimension to my life.
