about the artist
anna archinger
Anna Archinger is a Denmark-based equine photographer whose work stands out for its emotional depth and unique perspective. Her distinctive style is driven by her passion for equestrian training and the academic art of riding, with a focus on the movement and expressive nature of horses.
Although her photography has earned her international attention, Anna's creative journey is a relatively fresh one, beginning in 2019 with the impulsive purchase of a second-hand camera. Once Anna began photographing horses, she was hooked.
"Photography is my medium of capturing and honoring horses... Honestly, without horses, I probably wouldn't be a photographer today."
- Anna Archinger
Anna's connection to horses is profound, and she is drawn not only to their elegance and character but also to the challenges they present as subjects. Anna's "Spirit in the Dark" series has tremendously impacted her work, and Anna credits the series with teaching her to trust herself and her artistic vision.
Committed to allowing viewers the freedom to interpret her work in their own way, Anna's work seeks to evoke a spectrum of emotions without predetermination. The most memorable responses to her work come from her clients, whose emotional reactions and appreciation provide her with the greatest sense of achievement.
When she's not behind the camera, Anna enjoys spending time with her family and animals.
