-
What kind of harness is best to use?You get to choose. Do you want your horse braided with a bridle or do you want pure nature? I always carry a photo halter anyway. This is an extra thin (but sturdy) halter that can be removed afterwards in Photoshop. It can be used for both still and action photos. This way you can hold your horse during the photo shoot, but in the final photo it looks like he was standing loose with you.
-
My horse cannot get on the trailer can I have pictures taken?Yes, you can also have photos taken of your horse in your neighborhood, so that we can walk there. We will discuss the possibilities of the location. Sending a movie or pictures is always nice too.
-
My horse cannot get off the terrain, is this a problem?Certainly not, we can also just take pictures in the yard. We will discuss the possibilities of the location. Sending a video or photos is always very nice too.
-
Next to stable is a natural area, is this suitable for the photo shoot?We can determine this together by mutual agreement. It is always a possibility, I will discuss the pros and cons of the location with you.
-
My horse never stands still, is this a problem?No, this is not a problem. Few horses are good at standing still. Fortunately, I have a fast camera and only need a brief moment each time. Furthermore, he can keep walking circles around you and we can stop him every time in between.
-
What kind of clothes should I wear?Mainly put on what you feel good in. I do think the color is very important. This depends on the location and setting, so we discuss in advance if what fits well and what does not.
-
Can I bring someone with me during the shoot?Gladly, extra help is always welcome, as long as it doesn't get too busy for yourself and the horse.
-
Should I bring fly spray during the shoot?In summer, it is recommended. Make sure it is a spray that does not stain.
-
My horse cannot be loose, can I take pictures without a harness?No problem, I always have a photo halter with me. I work these away afterwards so your horse appears to be completely free.
-
Can I also have action photos taken of my horse?Yes indeed, we can also take action photos on the lunge line or under the saddle
-
I want to give a shoot as a gift, do you have gift certificates?Yes, you can indicate this when booking in the comments form. Then we will discuss the possibilities together and I will send you a gift certificate digitally or by mail.
-
How far in advance is it best to book?This is a little different every season. It is best to send me a message with your wishes and I will check when it is possible. The guideline for winter is about 2 to 3 weeks. In summer it is between 3 and 8 weeks.
-
My horse is still in his winter coat, does this matter?No, this is not a problem. It does give a different end result than the summer coat, so keep that in mind. You can choose a summer coat, winter coat or shaved coat.
-
I have several horses, can they be photographed separately or together?Yes. Several horses can come along to the shoot. They can be photographed together or separately. Note: there is an additional charge per extra horse.
-
How long does a photo shoot take?This varies. The shoot itself often takes about 1.5 hours. However, this is an indication and can vary from horse to horse. Some horses need longer to get into it and others finish it very quickly. I adapt to the horse and do not continue longer than necessary and/or possible.
-
At what location will the photo shoot take place?This is in consultation. I know many beautiful places in the area Tilburg, Loon op zand. But if you prefer that I come your way, no problem. Please note that travel expenses are added.
-
Will the photo shoot take place in bad weather?If the weather is really bad, we will reschedule the shoot to another day by mutual agreement.
-
Are the photos copyrighted?The photos taken are subject to copyright. You will receive the photos with or without a logo (depending on the package). The photos may only be shown publicly (on the Internet) with the visible logo and name. Furthermore, the photos may not be edited or cropped by your own hand. Should you like to see something changed, please put this question via email. More information about the rights of the photos made by me can be found in the general conditions.
