Gypsy horses are a specialty breed of horse from the UK where they were originally used to pull carriages. They are often a piebald coloring and feature hooves and legs that showcase their feathered hair. On this unique photo walk, we will have a chance to get up close with the horses, as well as photograph them in action !
For the first few hours of the afternoon, we will be able to photograph at the stables, located in Brunswick, Maine. We will focus on the horses and barn details, which will be a unique opportunity to get creative and document their environment! From 4-6pm, riders will maneuver the horses for us to have various action scenes, vantage points, details, and creative opportunities. Come join us for a unique workshop!
