Lucy & Cassie Equine Photo Shoot…

Lucys birthday present was a photo shoot with the pony she looks after called Cassie, a very sweet Welsh pony. I’ve done lots of photo shoots at this yard (over 10 now!), so I was determined to find somewhere I hadnt used before. There’s a small woods with evergreens, so I thought I might have a try getting in the woods, we scrambled over the branches and I found a spot where the light was soft and even. It was a good choice…and I’ve used it twice more since Lucy’s shoot :) Here are a few of the images from the day… Lucy has since bought her own pony.

Megan & Murphy Equine Photo Shoot…

Megans mum booked an equine photo shoot for Megan as a birthday present. Murphy is a very handsome Welsh pony, it wasn’t going to be difficult to get great images as both of them are just so photogenic. Megan was a star to work with she never stopped smiling and Murphy was extremely cooperative accept when he decided to take Megans dad for an impromptu run down the road to the field ;) We had a great day here are a few images from their photo shoot…

Jake The Spaniel….

I had lots of fun photographing the very lively spaniel Jake….we got lots of action shots, followed by a quick dip in the river then suitably wet dog bounded off for his ball. The light was lovely with the sun coming through the autumnal coloured leaves…just gorgeous….

Equine Photography Training Day, Cheshire

I recently spent the day with Alex a lifestyle photographer from Hertfordshire. Alex wanted to offer equine photography to her clients so had booked a one-to one training day with me. Our first practical session was with Jess and her horse Mai, with Lisa and Paddy in the afternoon session. The weather was very kind to us..in fact a bit too sunny (we cant win!) Here are a few images from the day. If you are wanting to learn how to photograph horses I offer both training for amateur and professional photographers. Please contact me for further details.

Jennifer & Rex Equine Photo Shoot Cheshire…

Rex is a gorgeous ex-eventer, he was a little excitable at the prospect of being super model for the day, so Jennifer had to change her high heels for welly’s when all the horses in the fields decided to come and see what was going on! We let him have a quick blast in the indoor school to let off some steam then carried on (in sensible shoes) with the shoot…how photogenic are they both?

Elleanor, Loula & Noah, Equine Photo Shoot…

These images are from a recent photo shoot with Elleanor and her lovely ponies, Noah a very sweet Dartmoor, and Loula, a cheeky Welsh Section A. My useless sat nav (yeah ok maybe it was my fault!) took me down the wrong road but luckily I spotted a gorgeous woods with daffodils, a perfect location for our shoot, so thats where we started out. We did get asked not to squash the daffodils by the watchful neighbours…hmm not sure we managed that promise! We then went back to the yard and off I went to find some good locations to shoot, it wasnt difficult and Elleanor and the ponies were true stars…x

Juliette & Hero Equine Photo Shoot…

I ventured to a lovely yard in Cheshire to do a photo shoot with Juliette and her lovely horse Hero. Juliette had won some trophies for long distance riding and so I took a few images of them before they had to be handed back. Unfortunately Hero wont be able to compete any longer due to leg problems. Here are a few images from the shoot…

Sandra, Sunny, Kirsty & Lulu Equine Photo Shoot…

Sandra booked a shoot for herself, her daughter Kirsty and the horses Sunny and Lulu. The weather was a bit mixed and it was an evening shoot so we had to dodge the rain and try to finish before it got too dark. We shot some images in the barn the in between showers managed to get some images outside. The sun was going down so I thought we would go to the stubble fields to try to make the most of the sunset. Sandra and Kirsty wore their Concours d’elegance outfits, handmade by Sandra herself….here are a few of their images x

Beach Bridal Equine Photo Shoot…

A fellow photographer wanted to update his bridal portfolio, so I suggested a beach shoot….and whoops why not add a horse ;) photographing horses is my passion….and I always try to sneak a horse (or two) into my shoots….Lisa has a lovely Arab called Paddy and gladly accepted our crazy idea of her wearing a wedding dress whilst cantering through the not-so-warm sea at Southport…Lisa is planning on getting married next year so it was rather unusual for her fiancĂ© Mike to see her in a wedding dress before their big day… We started with some shots of Lisa in the dunes then used the “Paddy wagon” as Lisa affectionately calls her horsebox before Lisa and Paddy ventured out on the beach….Dont they both look gorgeous?
