My horse was used in a fashion photo shoot yesterday.

And it was amazing!

It was incredibly unnerving handing the 2 year old colts over to [jealously!] skinny models, BUT, they behaved absolutely impeccably and didn't put a foot wrong all day. They weren't fidgety, spooky, bargy, nervy, etc....they just, posed! Bless them. We used Sparks [my one], Applejack [Work's blue roan colt] and Hairy.

It was so fun, though a fair bit of work getting them ready and had a complete transport nightmare getting them there...but it all worked out in the end!

I cannot wait to see the finished shots once they're edited and done, and will definitely be up for the horses to be used again! They adored Sparks ;) He went with the dress apparently haha. It's for a fashion collection, which once finished, will feature as a spread in an international celebrity/music/fashion magazine.

The whole team were lovely and I think everyone had an awesome day! It was laughs all round and a lovely atmosphere - everyone got hooked in!

Anyway...a few snippets here :)

Loading the rest of the photos on my facebook, and will post the link to that instead as there are LOADS.

[Obviously, these photos are our photos taken on our phone, just to capture the day! Not the prof ones lol] - but I will post them for you all once they're done, very excited to see what they end up like finished!

Just got in contact and forwarded some photos offering them to be used if they liked them :D

My pony is the red and white one :D Thankyou!
 
Lovely photos. How did you get the black cob to stand still with all that grass around? I know that my boy would have been head deep in lovely green grass :)
 
Timing was the key hahaha! We just popped his reins behind his saddle ;) He'll stand still all day long, but whilst eating haha ;) We just had to reposition him to try and get the best angles for the shot, but he stood like a rock.
 
Gorgeous photos - wow!

If I had gone near my horses in a dress like that (bigger size obviously - resembling rent-a-tent :p) I would be covered in
(a) hair
(b) slobber
(c) snot
and that is just from me :cool:
 
Thankyou! I wasn't expecting a video, I just came across it this morning and had to post it! It was such a brilliant experience. Definitely will use the horses for it again in the future - they loved it.

Here's links to the horses pics:

Haha thankyou!

Though I am a bit embarrassed being featured on it in the video haha...I'm happy for the horses being in the limelight and me hiding out of the camera in the background out of choice! LOL :p
 
Eeeeek just seen some of the proper photos! They're awesome! I can't publish them anywhere till they've been issued in the magazine though sadly! I shall have to keep everyone waiting till then...
 
Just looked at these. They are wonderful. Really love the red and white cob and his soft pink and white muzzle on the model. I love the contrast and the horses are so clean!
 
Thankyou :D So proud of my little man. He was unhandled before last October time bless him.


Haha they were amazed by the hair and colours also :D
 
Oh wow how exciting, they look great - and so clean! Can't wait to see the final pictures! Very impressed with the lack of spit on the clothing too ;)
Would love to get my boy modelling, the only thing he CAN do is pose for the camera haha
