Jim Dratfield, the Annie Leibovitz of pet portraiture, has exhibited at galleries throughout the country and counts among his clientele the likes of Elton John, Jennifer Aniston, Laura Dern, Billy Joel and Charlize Theron. The NY Times describes Dratfield's work as "Animal images that combine the dignity of Karsh's photos and the candor of Weegee's."
In this offering, Jim Dratfield will travel to your home or a location of your choice anywhere in the Continental US, where he will photograph your pets and you with your pets. This half-day session includes three photo portraits suitable for hanging, including a framed portrait of the recipient and pet in a contemporary black frame, as well as two limited-edition signed prints from Dratfield's collection of dog, cat and horse prints, and a personalized, signed copy of his newest book Her Horse. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the EQUUS Foundation, a national animal welfare charity in the United States dedicated to safeguarding the comfort and dignity of America's horses.
About the book: Her Horse is a visually poetic coupling of words and pictures describing the many variations of this distinctive affinity. Join bestselling author and award-winning photographer Jim Dratfield’s chronicles through quotations, stories, and pictures, along with the range of experiences he has witnessed of the human/animal relationship. A foreword by celebrated horsewoman Georgina Bloomberg describes the subject from the perspective of a major horsewoman herself, while EQUUS Foundation president Lynn Coakley introduces the wide array of attachments and entities that support these special relationships. The two combine to offer a stylishly documented work that appeals as gift for a friend, or even for oneself.
