Growing up in The County, I have fallen in love with exploring the lesser-known gems amongst the iconic places, perfect for taking photos. Allow me to take you there! I will greet you at the Sandbanks Dunes parking lot in West Lake where I will introduce myself and we will discuss the kind of pictures you would like to create. This can vary from beautiful portraits to creative vacation-style snaps around the park. Or a combination of both! Next, we will walk to one of the most scenic spots in the park... To be revealed on the day! (Hint: think scenic trails and diverse ecosystems). Here we will have the chance to have our own private and casual tasting of some local County Cider (or Sandbanks wine) and take beautiful photos! You will also get an exclusive look into some of the park's "locals-only" spots situated in the heart of The Dunes... Perfect opportunity to get some unique outdoor portraits! You will receive 20 edited, high-resolution photos per person, both in color, and black and white. BONUS: I will send you your pictures on the following day! COVID-19 protocol: I follow strict sanitary measures on this experience, and will have extra masks and hand sanitizer at hand. Whether it's a special occasion or you would just like to experience the lesser-known part of The County, I am here for you! Visit my website for more photos: creativecoconut.ca

Your experience will start with a journey into the wine country of Prince Edward county. Horse Sense, is located just off Highway 62. Surrounded by grass fields and wooded trails, we offer an experience you will always remember. You do not need to be an experienced equestrian, all activities take place on the ground with the horse at liberty in a round pen, and are guided by myself. You will be introduced to horse language and behaviour, meet the herd, and be guided through a connection, reflection or empowerment activity, followed by a debrief session. Each session is 90 minutes in length. The activities are geared towards connecting with the horse, (who are masters at emotional agility and mirroring your authentic feelings). Horses do not lie, are amazing and gifted listeners and communicate on a level you have never experienced. Afterwards you are free to explore the county, experience a wine-tasting at one of the local wineries or catch some sun at one of the local beaches. With the new reality of Covid 19 in place, plan on being outside for the entire experience to allow for proper social distancing. A washroom facility will be available and sanitized for use during your visit. Other things to note The Horse Sense herd is friendly and willing to participate fully in your experience. You need not worry about being over-faced during the experience, I will be with you always.
