PERSONAL EQUESTRIAN PHOTOGRAPHY: YOUR HORSE AND YOU

Horse and Owner Photography

Your horse is beautiful and so are you. Horses are a reflection of beauty and strength, and the bond you share is truly unique. Together, we’ll create artistic equestrian portraits that highlight this connection—whether walking, standing, or riding.

Before the session, we’ll discuss everything from location and outfits to your horse’s personality to ensure they feel safe and comfortable. Horses don’t like standing in one place for too long and often prefer moving freely, so a familiar, enclosed field where you can walk together is ideal. We’ll use the natural light to create stunning moments of interaction that you’ll treasure forever.

Textured or Black Background Horse Photography

Horses on black background look stunning.

Horses are such beautiful creatures that it is very tempting to edit their photos with a painterly feel. You can choose between black background-neutral and well-used in the equine photography world, or a more arty textured background.

Black background portraits elevate equine photography into fine art, creating a timeless and elegant look. These portraits use controlled lighting and editing techniques to emphasise your horse’s striking features and individuality. It’s a classic choice for showcasing their beauty in a truly artistic way.

Depending on the stables and whether there is a barn or indoor school, I can create head, head-and-shoulders, or full-body portraits on a black or textured background.

The larger the “door” of the covered area, the more variety we can achieve in capturing your horse. The key is positioning the horse in shade but close enough to natural light, while you hold them and your helper captures their attention.
