 A couple of weeks ago, I had the pleasure of being commissioned for an Equine Portrait Experience with the lovely Tara Bell and her once in a lifetime horse, Poppy. It was such a pleasure to catch up with Tara after being coached by her for many a lesson during my early days with Polden Hills Pony Club and I was also taught at primary school by her amazing Mum too. Since then Tara has got married and become an amazing Mum to 2 gorgeous children. Time really does fly by and looking back it all feels like yesterday! Knowing Tara, I was well aware of how much her gorgeous mare means to her and I knew that creating beautiful memories with her was a priority. It's safe to say they both smashed it and the results were 3 beautiful Frames hung pride of place in their living room for all to see, forget the wedding photos we're all about the horses here!
Tara expressed during her pre-shoot consultation that she was super nervous for her photoshoot having never done anything like this before but knowing it was something she desperately wanted to do. So on the day I made it my mission to make sure that I spent lots of time reassuring her and guiding her through the experience. Together, we chose 3 beautiful outfits and then headed out for a lovely sunny stroll around their beautiful farm spotting all of the best locations we can use for photographs.  By the time we had made it round the farm spotting all of the beautiful spots, we'd had a great catch up and Tara was feeling relaxed and ready... so she put Poppy's freshly cleaned bridle on and off we went! Oh my goodness we had so much fun and Poppy didn't put a hoof wrong, she kept her ears pricked and took everything in her stride. We made our way around the farm, changing outfits and using all of the gorgeous locations. Once I knew we had an amazing collection of gorgeous images, we called it an evening and enjoyed a drink in the sunshine.
When Tara came to view her images in my home studio, she was overjoyed with the results and amazed at how well they came out. We worked through all of her favourite images creating 3 beautiful frames for her living room as pictured at the beginning of the blog. It was such a pleasure to photograph Tara and I cannot wait to see her gorgeous frames once they are hung on her wall xx
