Meet the Team!

Banjo

Here he is: the one and only Banjo Man! Banjo is the crowning superstar of Ashleigh Magnus Photography, modeling countlessly for clients and companies looking to add an equine presence to their session. This guy has truly been the biggest inspiration behind my business and continues to inspire me daily. Banjo has “been there, done that” with experience in Western Pleasure, barrel racing, show jumping, trail riding, and was even photographed for the 2014 Boot Barn catalog! I truly could not have wished for a better first horse and thank him every day for the lessons he’s taught me.

Mia

Introducing one of our shoot assistants: Mia! Not only will you see this fellow equestrian pulling out all the stops to have your horse looking their best, but you might even catch her braiding those gorgeous manes for you. That’s right! The AMP team has their very own braider that comes just to you for your session. Mia has been helping the AMP team for a little over a year now. It’s been a joy to have her at sessions helping get those ears, snapping behind the scenes video, and making sure you and your four legged partner are looking their best!

Moe

Moe was welcomed into our family in 2015 and I’d be lying if I didn’t say it has been one crazy ride! While we’ve had our fair share of ups and downs both in the ring and out, I wouldn’t trade anything for this perfect man. When Banjo began to slow down, Moe became my new way to progress. While I thought I was only getting a show jumping horse, I quickly learned there was a lot more this guy had to bring to the table. Moe and I have soared to new heights together and he continues to help me grow every day. I’m extremely grateful for his big heart and desire to please and look forward to the future we have together.
