The Bramleys: An Unbreakable Bond between a Child and a Pony.
In the heart of a peaceful countryside, a heartwarming story unfolds. Meet the Bramley family, whose lives are intertwined with a majestic black pony named Ebony. Ebony, with her rich history and gentle spirit, has become more than just a pony; she's a beloved member of the family.
Mum Laura has a deep-rooted connection to Ebony. As a young girl, Laura's father purchased Ebony for her, and together they embarked on a journey of equestrian adventures. Ebony, with her sassy personality and love for little people, proved to be the perfect companion for Laura's early riding experiences. She taught Laura valuable lessons about horsemanship and instilled in her a lifelong passion for horses.
When Laura outgrew Ebony, her breeder bought her back, and Ebony went on to achieve great success in various equestrian disciplines. But fate had a special plan for Ebony. After the breeder passed away, Laura agreed to give Ebony a loving retirement home.
When Laura became pregnant, Ebony seemed to sense the changes within her. At just seven months old, Carter had his first unforgettable sit on Ebony, marking the beginning of a beautiful bond between the two.
To capture these precious moments and celebrate their family, Laura decided to have a professional photoshoot. Their images not only showcase the bond between Ebony and Carter but also highlight the enduring connection between Laura and her childhood pony.
The photoshoot was filled with laughter, love, and the gentle presence of Ebony. The family's four Valais Black Nose Spitti sheep, who are more like dogs than sheep, even joined in for some memorable shots with husband Rob.
Their story is a testament to the enduring power of family, the beauty of equestrian life, and the unbreakable bond between a child and a pony.
“We couldn’t be happier with the shots Victoria captured of our family. So patient with a nearly 2 year old, a pony and 4 sheep. Really lovely afternoon and made me cry with the final pictures. Highly recommend.”
