Dartmoor Horse Photography Workshop

Dartmoor Horse Photography Workshop

Join us for an intensive one day equestrian horse photography workshop of Clydesdale horses and Dartmoor ponies against the stunning backdrop of Dartmoor with its abundance of natural beauty and visual opportunities it offers.

My Discover Dartmoor photography workshops give you the chance to explore the equestrian world of this breathtaking landscape when the foliage and scenery is at its most stunning.

We will visit the home of Adventure Clydesdales, a unique company which offers memorable riding experiences across Dartmoor. We will photograph these majestic animals at liberty in the field with Dartmoor as the backdrop and also while they ride out across the open landscape.

We will also spend time out on Dartmoor taking photographs of Dartmoor ponies in their native moorland environment.

We’ll go close to the herds capturing the characters of the ponies with the distinct Dartmoor landscape as the backdrop.

The schedule will be flexible to accommodate the light and weather and the unique photo opportunities Dartmoor brings.

You can count on a wonderful day with new photography friendships made and diverse photo opportunities explored during this wonderful season on Dartmoor.

We will discuss in detail how to capture great images of horses including horse sense such as where to stand and how to capture the gaits at their best, and all the technical details required such as camera and equipment, settings, composition and light.

This workshop is ideal for the beginner and advanced photographer wishing to develop their skills in equestrian photography.

Ultimately you will be inspired by what you learn and experience and you will come away from the workshop with a good knowledge of what to look for and how to go about capturing great pictures of horses so that you know how to turn mediocre shots into really special ones.
