Merry Christmas and a happy New Year

Wow, what a year!

This year certainly had its ups and downs! The Coronavirus is certainly dominating our lives!

I am grateful that we are well, that I saw more of my children, even though they were meant to study in their rooms, …. My husband is working from home and we see more of each other!

Businesswise, like so many in the service industry this has been very much a rubbish year from the pet photography point of view. To the extend that I can not really see doing a dog photoshoot in the near future. I see myself lying on the floor, getting in position for a fantastic shot, only to be licked to death by dog!! Hahahaha, there are worse ways to spend a day, but I think dog photography will have to be done in a very controlled on the leash way!

I am hoping to be able to schedule in socially distanced equine photo shoots in the New Year as they are easier to arrange. I really miss being around your furry friends!

In the meantime I will continue to expand my other other business (Talk in German) of giving German students (teens and adults alike) more confidence speaking a foreign language, which has grown throughout the pandemic.

As the saying goes: “The only constant is change!”

I hope you will all be able to have a nice and relaxing Christmas and here is to hoping 2021 will be a better year!

Latest Equine Photo Shoot – Sneak Peek

Equine Photo Shoot – with social distancing rules

It has been a while – and now I am back photographing! Oh, I have missed being able to spend some quality time with my clients pets!

Initially it felt really weird but we soon all got into the swing of keeping our distance. I used to turn up at the yard or at my clients home and we had a chat over a cup of tea or coffee before taking a quick recce to earmark locations. We skipped the tea drinking and handshaking on arrival, maybe we will return to these niceties at some point.

I have been pouring over this latest set of client images and I not sure but somewhere along the line I have forgotten how to make quick decisions on which image to show my client and which one to cull. It seemed to take forever and after spending 2 1/2 hours on the actual photo shoot I have 50 beautiful and very individual images to show.

Due to Covid-19 the viewing will now take place via screen share. Before the pandemic I used to drive to my clients house and we would watch the slide show together. Just as well we are all so adaptable!

As mentioned in the subject line, this is a

Sneak Peek

of my latest socially distanced photo shoot. It can be done and I looking forward to many more, … The image I chose is in fact a classic door step photo.
