BESPOKE EQUINE PHOTOSHOOTS
I'm a Hartpury (Gloucestershire, UK) based photographer offering bespoke equine photoshoots locally but also equally happy to travel around the UK and abroad. I love shooting using natural light and exploring the beauty of available backgrounds and foregrounds (and believe me you don't need acres of land to have the most stunning photos). I try to edit my photos as little as possible by carefully capturing the magical and authentic moments in front of me.
I can take photos and also very popular currently slow-mo videos for use as 'reels' on social media. I'm open to personal and commercial enquires and I'm happy to give any type of equestrian photography or videography a go, from portraits and ridden photos to themed photoshoots (such as maternity or wedding photos) and personal event photography.
All photos and videos will be carefully selected with attention to detail (such as open eyes, 'happy ears' or hand position) and edited before being presented to you in your private online gallery.
Yard/group photoshoots, seasonal MINI shoot offers (such as Christmas theme) and gift vouchers are also available.
Please contact me to discuss your requirements and for your own individual quote as I believe every photoshoot is unique.
EVERY SEASON OF THE YEAR IS A GOOD SEASON FOR A PHOTOSHOOT
I strive to capture the best images whatever the weather, time of the year or time of the day (although sunrise and sunset time are my favourite). Spring and early summer offer variety of flowers (look out for bluebell mini photoshoot offer around April/May time), blossoming trees and green grasses leading onto stubble fields and leaves turning brown during late summer and autumn. Winter is probably most tricky, full of mud and rain, but offers unique light, not so early sunrises and not so late sunsets as well as magical atmosphere created by yours and your horse's breath when it's cold. And not forgetting the snow! Christmas wreath photoshoots are available every October - December.
OCCASION PHOTOSHOOTS
Are you expecting a baby? Are you getting married/recently got married? Is it your horse's birthday? Or your birthday? Do you have a foal? Or perhaps an older or injured horse soon to cross the rainbow bridge? Do you want to announce recent purchase of a new horse? Are want some photos with your horse in your graduation or ball outfit? These are just some of the requests over the years. Photos are memories that we can treasure forever so in case a more every day photoshoot wasn't your cup of tea, perhaps a themed shoot will give you some ideas for creating your own unique experience?!
RIDDEN PHOTOSHOOTS
With over 10 years experience in event photography and a good eye for catching the right moments I always aim to deliver photos of you and your horse looking your best. As a qualified riding instructor I also tend to pay attention to rider position to offer little tweaks in your position to improve the overall composition and final action shots.
COMMERCIAL PHOTOSHOOTS
I offer commercial/business photoshoots, of both products and services. I'm happy to be a photographer (or videographer) during your brand photoshoot or equally happy to have products send to me and find my own models (both equine and human). As with any photoshoot price will depend on exact requirements. Photos and videos from commercial photoshoots come with commercial rights as opposed to personal use.
