Draco: equine black background portraits

Equine

Photographing Draco was a beautiful journey down memory lane for me.


Draco, a striking blend of Friesian and Percheron, wore his powerful frame and graceful presence with a timeless elegance that only intensified against the classic black backdrop. Adding to the magic, he was adorned in a custom bridle, featuring intricate dragon designs made just for him, a detail that felt perfectly suited to his regal look.


Growing up in The Netherlands, I rode a Friesian who was one of my heart horses, so capturing Draco felt like a reunion with my roots. Each portrait highlights not only his beauty but the quiet strength and heritage he represents, making this session unforgettable.
