*NEW* Equine Portrait Posing Guide (PDF)
This PDF downloadable guide has 60+ pages packed with education, tips and tricks, and my 20+ poses I use regularly with every client!
I wanted to provide a complete guide for those who could not personally attend a workshop or mentorship, the opportunity to still learn my exact process (and wild success!) for creating fine art Equine Portraits. Having a tangible guide allows photographers to absorb the information at their own pace, set and reach attainable goals, and return to the guide for continual growth at any point.
In this guide I’ve included…
Essential Equipment I use for Equine Portraits
How to choose the best location
How to use natural light
Different lighting tactics for black vs white backgrounds
Personal thoughts behind tack options
Exact words I use for communicating with my assistant AND the client
Toys and treats and how I use them to pose horses
Benefits of having an assistant
Diagrams for every pose, showing hoof placements
Examples of good vs bad posing
Detailed tips to elevate every pose
Identifying conformation flaws and how to over come them with posing
How to add motion to poses
