Jun 16, 2016 | Horse and Rider Photo Shoots

Way back in April of this year (although it was the last day of April so I’m almost into May’s shoots!) I spent a wonderful evening on a photo shoot with the gorgeous Jess and her two fabulousย eventers Dotty and Kenya.

Jess was a lucky winner of the ‘Portrait Shoot of the Year’ competition that I ran on my facebook page back in February of this year and it was an absolute joy to photograph her and her two horses. We had aย reallyย beautiful evening for it and lots of fantastic locations including the Wirral Way which we finished the shoot up on. I particularly like the challenge of finding the best locations when arriving at a new yard or location but it’s always nice when wherever you look locations are just popping out at you! And of course on top of a fab yard to shoot on the Wirral Way never fails to provide gorgeous locations wherever you are on it.

The bond between a rider and her horse

Jess is a keen eventer and her bond with her two horses is clear to see. My favourite images from this photo shoot areย the onesย I managed to getย when Jess forgot entirely about the camera and was just caught up in the moments with her horses. Those are the memories that I love to capture as I know all too well myself how times change, horses end up moving on andย those memories sadly begin to fade. I know that every photo and piece of video from my childhood and teenage years spent with my horses become increasingly precious with the passing years. I think this is definitely a factor in what drew me back to a life and a photography career with horses, knowing how precious these relationships are in our lives.
