    We had an amazing time at the farm with Leda and Steve, they were extremely accommodating and very warm people. Seeing their farm while we shot our video was a real treat! It is a very special place.

    Leda was an excellent host who was more than accommodating the whole time. She was very helpful with the animals and assisting with getting the right shots. The farm as a whole was very beautiful. Highly recommended! A+++

    I recently enjoyed visiting Hudson Valley Alpaca & Horse Farm, which was an incredible experience. Leda and her partner's impeccable hospitality truly stood out. The team was not only professional but also incredibly supportive throughout our shoot. They provided complimentary snacks and coffee, which were a pleasant surprise and helped maintain high energy levels on set. Moreover, the team went above and beyond to understand our goals and helped us realise them. The shoot went smoothly with their assistance, and the results were terrific. In terms of location, it's arguably the best shooting spot in New York. The picturesque setting and the beautiful alpacas and horses added charm to our shoot. I highly recommend Hudson Valley Alpaca & Horse Farm to anyone looking for a professional and supportive environment for their shoots. It was indeed a remarkable experience.

    This place was so amazing and looks even better in person!!!. Ms Leda and Steve are amazing hosts and where so accommodating, and helpful every step of the day. The animals were beautiful and you could see that they are treated with love, which only makes this place ever so magical. The location had great props ever where and even a farm store which was so useful for holding, talent and crew. Such an amazing place, I hope to shoot there again in the future!!

    Leda and Steve were amazing hosts! Their venue is just as amazing as the pictures, if not more. We got everything we needed and the shots we took were one of our best. The animals warmed our hearts and they were a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Leda and Steve's location for your next gig. You won't be disappointed.

    Leveret Clothing booked our Christmas photoshoot here in November. We sincerely recommend the Hudson Valley Alpaca Farm! Leda and the crew at the farm are incredibly kind and helpful. They showed us around the farm, allowed us to photograph the animals, and also allowed us to use any farm props needed to best match our vision for the photoshoot. The space is absolutely beautiful and if you are looking to book with Leda + Hudson Valley Alpaca Farm, you will not regret it!

    Hudson Valley Alpaca Farm was literally THE BEST CHOICE EVER for our fashion shoot. We had over 40 people on set, from talent to children, to pregnant ladies, to agents and publicists and they were all BLOWN AWAY by how special the place was. I cannot recommend this venue enough, Leda & Steve are so accommodating and they went above and beyond. There were so many things which we didn't speak about beforehand that Leda and Steve took care of without even thinking twice. I could not have done the shoot without them and honestly, they feel like family. LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this place so much. Also, the ANIMALS man oh man are they amazing! We'll be back very soon.
