What is it about horses that have led you to dedicate so
much time and to make a career of it?
I’ve always had an interest in photography and when I retired
from the British army, I started taking images for my wife’s public
relations company, which specializes in equestrian sport. The rest, as
they say, is history.
How is equestrian photography challenging?
The main challenge of photographing show jumping is knowing
the course, and studying how the obstacles will be jumped. You can
usually only shoot pictures of three or four jumps for each rider, as
it’s impossible to be on all four sides of the stadium at once. Once
you’ve decided which obstacles you are going to shoot, taking into
consideration sponsors and backgrounds, even then you must make
sure you’re in the right position to get the horses and rider at the
right angle. You have to move quickly from jump to jump, just to get
the shot.
Turning the old saying on its head, when did you ever
leap before you looked, and how did that turn out?
I asked my wife to marry me after only knowing her for seven
months, and I wouldn’t change a thing. So sometimes, just leap. It
could be worth it!
