I recently had the pleasure of working with Emily Belies, an incredible equestrian photographer who just happens to ride at my daughter’s barn. From the moment I met Emily I knew my daughter and her horse would be in good hands. Here’s why Emily stands out.
1. Passion for horses.
Emily’s passion for horses is palpable. Her deep understanding of equines shines through every frame.
2. Emotional connection
Emily just doesn’t take pictures she captures emotions. Just take a look at Hannnah and Smoochie’s photo shoot. Whether it’s capturing the quiet bond between horse and rider or her ability to freeze the dynamic moments of show-jumping photos, the pictures are nothing but magical.
3. Safety and patience
Working with horses isn’t always straightforward. They are big unpredictable creatures. Emily’s patience and safety conscious approach helps to ensure that both rider and horse are comfortable. She even played horse sounds on her phone to get the attention of the horse and she started to winnie back at the camera.
4. Conformation expertise.
Ever noticed how some horses look very majestic in pictures and others look a little bit awkward? Emily knows how to position the horse to highlight the best angles, making each image stunning.
If you are looking for a photographer, who understands the soul of a horse look no further than Emily. She will capture your equestrian dreams and turn them into a piece of art work that you will treasure for a lifetime. I know we couldn’t stop adding more pictures to our cart, because one was better than the next one and how can you say no to that!
