Welcome to Clan & Canter

With over 40 years immersed in the world of horses and ponies—first as a rider and competitor, and now through my daughter’s unwavering passion—I’ve lived and breathed equestrian life. About a decade ago, I discovered a new way to connect with this world: photography. After studying at college and honing my craft through countless courses, I developed a deep understanding of how to create images that truly stand out.

Today, I bring these two passions together through equine photography. Whether you're looking for timeless portraits, dynamic action shots, or storytelling sessions that capture the bond between horse and rider, I offer a range of options tailored to suit you.

My Story - From our family to yours

Horses have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. As a child, I was captivated by their grace, their power, and the quiet understanding they offer without words. That early love never faded—it simply waited for the right moment to grow.

Years later, I found myself watching my daughter fall in love with horses in the same way I had. Her passion reignited something in me, and I knew I wanted to do more than just admire these animals—I wanted to capture their spirit, their stories, and the bond they share with the people who love them.

 

So I trained professionally as an equine photographer, combining technical skill with emotional insight. I learned how to work with horses in a way that respects their nature, how to read the subtle cues of connection between horse and rider, and how to turn fleeting moments into lasting art.

Every shoot I do is rooted in that journey—from childhood wonder to professional dedication, and the shared passion that continues to grow through my daughter. This isn’t just photography. It’s personal. It’s purposeful. And it’s a privilege to help others preserve the beauty of their own equestrian stories.
