Yes, I am THAT girl!
The girl who always has her horses and dogs by her side and a camera in her hand freezing moments otherwise forgotten. Having trotted around the horse world for years, I know how important our animals are to us! There is NOTHING like the bond between a human, their trusty steed and a good dog! I've been blessed to have experienced this feeling full throttle, and I hold it all dangerously close to my heart. Now, several years in and I am galloping coast to coast capturing the beauty and unbreakable bonds between humans, horses, furry best friends, people and the love stories we all share.
As a lover of all things artistic, I offer more than just incredible photography and beautiful artwork - I offer a visual journey. With almost 20 years of experience, award-winning work, and multiple publications, my portfolio includes striking photographs of equine, pets and portraits plus stunning wedding photography. In addition, I also offer beautiful artwork, handmade crafts and custom pet portraits for clients worldwide.
Conveniently located in Acworth, GA between the picturesque Blue Ridge Mountains and lively Atlanta, April Lizzy provides personalized and professional services, ensuring your photography and artistry requirements are met and exceeded.
