Official Photographer
Topline Image takes pride being an excellent partner with Show Staff, and works diligently to improve the horse show experience for everyone involved. We enjoy taking an active role in the team, and understand we are all working toward the same goal!
As the Official Show Photographer we provide a team of highly trained staff who are passionate about equine photography, and use some of the most technologically advanced equipment available while also tailored specifically for the harsh conditions we operate in. This ensures you receive attention grabbing, crystal clear images to illicit people's emotion that you can enjoy for a lifetime or use to promote your show next year.
Our staff are some of the best in their field, and you can rely on us for the highest degree of professionalism and industry knowledge. Their experience, skill, and passion shine in their images as they consistently go the extra mile to get "THE shot", and go out of their way to capture candid moments worth memorializing. Good enough is simply NEVER good enough!
Based in the stunningly beautiful Pacific Northwest (tell us we're wrong) Topline Image enjoys covering shows throughout the 6 Western United States including Washington, Oregon, California, Idaho, Nevada, and Arizona. While the majority of our shows are NRHA, AQHA, or APHA, we greatly value variety, and the addition of WRHA, NRCHA, and Barrel Racing keep our schedule just right! We are always open to expanding disciplines and locations as our schedule allows.
