Welcome! I’m happy you’re here!
Molly Virginia Photography is here to showcase you, your families, your livestock, horses, businesses, and homes with images to last a lifetime. My business is built on capturing the grit & heart of the cowboy folks!
I know everyone has different budgets they are comfortable with, so I want to be as transparent as possible. My work comes with a WHOLE lot of experience and expertise, and reflects as such. Each session looks a little different and is delivered a little different, but my packages reflect what you can expect to receive. Session pricing is based in rural Northern California, travel fees may apply outside of my local region.

Snaffle:
Whether you are preparing a horse to sell, promoting a broodmare or stallion, or advertising a show horse, professional images to highlight the horse make a huge difference in how they are portrayed from online listing to sale catalog. My sale horse images ALL include both confirmation and movement images (either turned out or brief under saddle) as I think showing off their structure and movement are equally important.

Equine Business-
From the family ranch, amazing breeders & trainers, silversmiths & saddle makers… anyone who has horses, agriculture, or western lifestyle as a central piece or inspiration for your business, take advantage of professional business branding images with a photographer who knows both small business details AND how to capture your horses. These sessions are some of the most special to me, as I get to capture and hear the stories of so many talented creatives, ranchers, and equine professionals. Each equine business session looks a little different, but I encourage keeping things as authentic as possible. I’m a great ‘fly on the wall’ and am happy to hang out and capture you feeding/grooming/working horses, checking fence or doctoring calves, in your workshop, or whatever your daily routine entails. Combine your family photos, product photos of what you create, day-in-the-life images, and more! I am happy to go over what is possible for your specific business needs. Video clips available as well, please inquire when booking.
Equine Business sessions begin at $415 for one hour, one location.

Don’t miss the opportunity to capture your family in whatever chapter you are in. From rowdy ranch littles to generational large families with great-grandparents around, family is precious and worth documenting. I specialize in ranch families, and am happy to include whatever it is that fills your days. Bring on the cowkids and cattle, ponies and pups. It’s a joy to come see the land you call home and show off your family. I also have some local locations I use for all families, and am happy to schedule larger family groups as well!
Congratulations! You’ve made it to the end of your high school or college years! I know how special these chapters are, and having images to capture this chapter are a lifelong treasure. I do primarily work with seniors who have horses, dogs, or livestock involved, but am also happy to take clients without their animals. Many of my senior clients choose to include memorable props or locations in relation to their high school or college, including sports memorabilia, jobs they may have had, or hobbies/clubs involvements! Please fill out an inquiry form to let me know what specific dreams you have for your senior photos, and I will do my best to make those come true.
