About this event

Horses are a wonderful subject for photography, but add in riders in historic dress and a farm setting in the natural countryside setting and you get a special opportunity to capture some wonderful imagery. Join us for a fun photography experience as we offer a session of beautiful horses and riders being posed and ridden along in the lovely Berkshire countryside.

We are delighted to be working with a team of very talented re-enactors called Rebellion Reenactment and we plan to have 5-6 horses and riders available to capture. They will be in a variety of historic dress from the 13th Century with Knights in full armour plus a campaign camp and foot soldiers doing hand to hand combat from Twin Tailed Lions so there will be plenty of variety and each horse will be wearing historically accurate riding gear. The re-enactors are well versed in photography, and will be posing and positioning the action for us so that we get the best angles and light. The TimeLine team will also be on hand to offer guidance and photo tips. Each session is 2 hours long and we aim to do 1 hour of high action with riding and running and another hour of static poses. You are of course welcome to book both of the sessions and join us for the full day as no photo will be the same.

As this is an outdoor event it will be weather dependent, and if adverse weather were forecast we would postpone to a later date. Horse behaviour is always dependent on the horses mood on the day, the horses are well trained but theirs and your safety is paramount so the day will run with this in mind.

There will be two sessions running, this one from 11:00-13:00 and the other from 15:00-17:00.

There is a car parking & toilets at the farm.
