CREATE YOUR EQUESTRIAN PORTRAIT THIS SUMMER
The Equestrian Series
Portrayed at their very best and in formal show attire, this series celebrates the riders who devote so much of themselves to the sport and the horses they love
Now Scheduling Summer Sittings!
The Fall is a busy time! Don't wait until school starts and the season gets back in full swing
Sittings are scheduled for one hour at the J.Ridout Portrait Gallery in Frisco, TX.
Remember this time with your equestrian in a way that no stable or show photograph ever could
The Equestrian Series helps us to mark this time with heirloom quality portrait art designed to provide enduring impact and bring joy to your entire family
Amidst the training, the long days, the competition and 'hustle & bustle' of everyday life, there exists a beauty in each rider that is often overlooked. Your young equestrian will feel beautiful, special and loved with a portrait experience like no other.
As parents, we don't often feel how quickly time moves until we discover our children have already changed forever

Compliments...
What an amazing experience. The entire process was a breeze, and we had such a great time at the sitting. We can't wait to see the painting!
Confidence, elegance and beauty- all captured in a single moment. MK felt so special and beautiful; and my husband can't stop talking about it!
The girls look so beautiful! They are at their very best with their hair and makeup... You just don't see that side of them when they are riding.
Thank you so very much for her portrait! We know it will be a treasure in our house for always and for generations. We never dreamed of having a portrait made but I’m so so glad we met you and invested in a forever keepsake for our home and family. You’ve captured her amazingly, and we will always treasure it
A Few FAQ's
How long is the Equestrian Sitting?
We schedule Equestrian Sittings for 1 hour, but your equestrian will only be in front of the camera for part of that time. We'll have plenty of time to chat, change clothes and get ready, create amazing portraits, and then pack up and say goodbye's when we're finished.
What should my Equestrian bring?
Proper clothing and gear is very important for this style of portrait. Please bring your formal show/jumper attire including:
- Show Coat or Shadbelly
- Show Shirt
- Jodhpurs or Breeches
- (please don't forget the Belt)
- Dress or Field Tall Boots
- Riding Helmet
- Riding Gloves
- any other items that are common and proper
Tack items:
- Show Saddle & stand
- Crop or Riding Whip
- Bridle
Can more than one rider be in the portrait? What if we have siblings?
The Equestrian Series celebrates the individual rider and our curated offerings are simply not suited for multiple subjects.
We'll schedule them back to back, but each rider will require their own sitting and separate reservation deposit.
Many times, parents of multiples elect to create portraits of their oldest child now, and make portraits of younger siblings once they reach the same age. Doing this will create a lovely anthology of all of your children at the same age.
If you would like a portrait made of all of your children (or entire family) together please let us know and we will schedule a Consultation and design a custom portrait sitting for you.
No Horse?
We've heard from so many Mom's that while stable or competition pictures are great, they love The Equestrian Series because it showcases the rider in a way that no other picture ever could: their hair is done, girls are wearing makeup, and their clothes are clean and perfect. The formal setting of our studio is befitting of the sport and for creating portraits that are worthy of prominent display in your home.
Can we have portraits made on location, with the horse?
Absolutely!
We love to create portraits on location of riders and their horses. It simply falls outside of The Equestrian Series. If you would like a portrait made on location with the horse, please let us know and we will schedule a Consultation and design a custom portrait sitting for you.
Will you travel to other cities and states?
Yes! Gather a few of your friends and I will come to you. Email us for details: hello@jridout.com
Meet Jeremy
I'm Jeremy Ridout. Father of a 12th grader and a 6th grader, husband of 22 years and Portrait Artist.
I am well aware just how busy life can be. I understand that portrait sittings can sometimes be a hassle and stressful. But your children are changing so fast! You don't want to forget all their precious details – it is worth it.
I work quickly and make portrait sittings stress free and fun for everyone (even the grumpiest dads). I’m here to help you every step of the way.
This is important: These portraits will tell your children that no matter how busy and hectic our lives, no matter what happens, they belong to a family that loves them, and they are always welcome. Don't look back in a few years and realize you've missed it.
