Kerri Kasem Instagram – Saying goodbye to Hielke fan de Gareladen the majestic Friesian. This magnificent horse was such a beautiful part of my life. Starting in 2010, Hielke was the first horse I ever did a photo shoot with. He was such a good boy, putting up with all the big dresses, including a 30 foot train from a wedding gown. Nothing scared him and he was a gentle giant. Then again in 2021 he posed like the regal war horse that he was for the cover of a magazine. Hielke was such a good boy allowing me to climb all over him and ride him with these massive gowns. Thank you to his beautiful care taker and the one who loved him the most, Shari Mahaffey @friesiansm for sharing him with me and the world! (She is the beautiful redhead at the end of the video.) How apropos; the last picture is of them both riding off into the sunset. ♥️ We love you Hielke! . . .
