I remember last year getting asked to photograph an equestrain event at local riding club just up the motorway from where I lived. Never photographing horses before I was naturally nervous but I was so excited to try. I came away from the event with some good images and lots of ideas on how I could progress and make the shots more interesting. Roll on 12 months and a couple of events under my belt, I was back at the same club photographing their first event of the year, Jump Cross.
The weather was great. Bright but overcast. Prefect for what I needed. The event consisted of 19 jumps over 2 fields so I choose to position myself where I could obtain several images of the same rider giving different perspectives. On each class, I moved the find different jumps, with different backgrounds which would allow me to have a diverse collection of shots.
Below are a few shots I took throughout the different classes during the day. Looking forward to the next one!
Kind regards
