SPAIN - TOUR 2022
Pure Spanish horses, also known as Horses of the Kings, have historically been an important inspiration for many great artists, painters and writers. Now they are one of the most popular and frequently photographed breeds within the horse world. This spectacular breed became a favourite to photograph because of their baroque, fairytale look and extraordinary movement, full of expression.
The main purpose of this event is to give photographers the chance to capture the spectacular Pura Raza Espanola - the breed which has been permanently etched into the history and culture of Spain. Traveling for so many years across the Andalusia now I want to invite you to join me in this one-in-a-kind country.
Participation in this tour is a great opportunity to build your own portfolio and to improve your photography skills through the many opportunities which I hope to provide you with!
Traveling to diverse locations across south of Spain, you will have the great pleasure to meet some of the best Andalusian horses, but also to discover the exciting Spanish culture.
During this exclusive trip I will share with you several of my favourite, selected places to photograph horses. I want to give you this opportunity to capture Pure Spanish Horses (and perhaps different breeds as well) with the spectacular backdrops of Andalusian hills, old stables, arenas with great light conditions and other beautiful locations. We will have access to photograph herds of horses at liberty, stallions in movement, equine portraits, and horses with riders in their traditional attire.
