Some collaborations grow stronger with time, and Patrick Molnar’s partnership with longtime friend and photographer Chilly-O is a perfect example. Over the years, whenever Patrick finds himself back in Atlanta between projects, he and Chilly carve out moments to capture the people who are driving the culture of this vibrant city. Their latest session took them to a serene Georgia morning spent with Gwen Little, founder of Everything Horses—a passionate program dedicated to teaching young people how to ride. This project is a testament to the power of friendship, community, and the stories that make Atlanta truly unique.

This project came together through my longtime friend and collaborator Chilly-O. We’ve been working on a personal series for years. Basically, anytime I’m home in Atlanta between jobs, we’ll carve out time to go shoot whatever or whomever is moving the culture here. Somehow, if you’re doing anything cool in this city, you know Chilly.
Gwen Little started Everything Horses to teach young people how to ride, and she’s been at it for years. We spent a beautiful Georgia morning photographing Gwen, Chilly’s two daughters (who’ve been riding with her since they were little), and Gwen’s employee, Sahabiyaah.
Huge credit goes to Chilly; he’s one of those people who just shows up for his community in every way, and I’m lucky to call him a friend.
