All The Pretty Little Horses- A Gunne Sax Fantasy

by Amber Magnolia Hill on July 17, 2009

From Sasha

We don't usually do consignments, but when my friend Holly asked if we wanted to sell her Gunne Sax dress in the shop, I didn't hesitate for a second. "Yeah, of course– if you model it, and if we can take pictures at your relative's ranch!"

I always wanted to take some pictures with a horse in them. I had the My Little Pony Castle, okay?

To seal the deal, her relatives have a Big Red Barn– a dream come true for a Gunne Sax photo shoot! Since solid backgrounds work best for thumbnail pictures, we could use the barn to do the "official" pictures, like this one:

And then there were the "unofficial" pictures– my favorite part. Yes, those actually are two happy horses galloping spontaneously through a sun-kissed meadow… we didn't even put them up to it.

I wondered about your ‘new model’ since I’d never seen her before in your photo’s. Super dress! Great pics!

So gorgeous in every way! You live in a magical place, I think the horses running in the background is my favorite. The dress looks so at home there, I’m not sure it should leave!

I know I keep making these threats, Sasha, but you’re seriously going to get smacked.
