Lofty Looks
Welcome to the Lofty Looks series by Susan McClafferty, a one-of-a-kind equine photography series that offers an extraordinary view of the horse. In this series, I take my craft to new heights—literally—capturing the beauty and majesty of horses from a vantage point above.
Without the aid of drones, I position myself high in the air, allowing me to explore a perspective few have seen. This elevated viewpoint reveals the intricate details of each horse’s form, creating a visual narrative that is both powerful and intimate.
The Lofty Looks series showcases horses in a way that suspends belief. From patterned coats that dance under the light to vibrant color gels that transform each image into a piece of contemporary art, this collection is where innovation meets tradition. I also blend multiple images in composite works, where horses merge into unique shapes, further emphasizing their elegance and strength.
Each piece in this series is more than just a photograph—it’s a study in form, light, and texture, all seen from an angle that brings out the full grandeur of these magnificent animals.
My techniques are the result of years of dedication to equine photography, and the Lofty Looks series represents the pinnacle of this journey so far. Every image is carefully composed, capturing not just the horse’s physicality but its spirit. These prints are perfect for the art collector who appreciates the fusion of traditional photography with modern artistic methods.
Explore the Lofty Looks series and experience horses as you’ve never seen them before—elevated, unexpected, and entirely captivating.
If you would like to buy one of these send me a message to purchase. I hope you enjoy!
