About Artist
Janelle Schroeder
I am an equine and wildlife photographer and I split my time between Denver, CO and Indian Shores, FL. I have the perfect blend of mountain wildlife in the summer and birds on the Gulf of Mexico outside my front door the other three seasons. My equine photography focuses on fine art portraits, stallion promotion and breeding stock.
