Christmas in the Barn: Equine Painterly & Black Background Portraits in North Idaho

There’s something magical about winter in North Idaho – the way the cold air catches in the light, the soft breath of a horse, and the hush of fluffy snow settling over the mountain pines.

This season, we’re celebrating that charm with a collection of fine art equine portraits featuring some of our favorite four-legged friends all dressed for Christmas in wreaths and Santa hats.

Each image is captured in a black background or hand-crafted painterly background, transforming simple moments into timeless works of art. The result feels equal parts festive and elegant – the kind of portrait that makes you smile every time you pass it in your home.
