I had the extraordinary opportunity to document a training day at the Colorado State University Spur Center in Denver, an inspiring event that highlighted the remarkable impact of therapy horses. As a Denver-based branding photographer specializing in capturing the essence of local nonprofits and their profound work, this photoshoot was close to my heart.

The CSU Spur Center, known for its innovative approaches to education and animal therapy, hosted a series of training sessions aimed at preparing therapy horses for their roles. These gentle giants play a crucial role in therapeutic settings, helping individuals cope with various psychological and physical challenges.

The Power of Therapy Horses

Therapy horses are not just animals; they are compassionate companions that bring comfort and hope to many. During the training sessions, I captured the profound connections formed between the horses and their trainers. Each image tells a story of patience, trust, and mutual respect—key elements that make animal-assisted therapy successful.

The serene environment of the CSU Spur Center provided the perfect backdrop for this photoshoot. With the majestic Rockies in the distance and the tranquil urban oasis around, the setting was as therapeutic as the activities themselves.

Why Document Nonprofit Stories?

Highlighting the endeavors of nonprofits like those at the CSU Spur Center is more than just photography; it's about telling stories that might otherwise go unnoticed. Through my lens, I aim to shine a light on these meaningful interactions and the incredible benefits of therapy animals in our community.

As someone deeply passionate about supporting local nonprofits and bringing their stories to the forefront, this photoshoot was a reminder of why I love what I do. Capturing these moments provides a visual testament to the power of kindness and the healing nature of therapy animals.
