Equine Photographers Network and learning to be an equine photographer

Several years ago I joined an on-line forum called the Equine Photographers Network (EPnet) because I wanted to learn more about taking pictures of horse. This network has a general forum for people who just love to take pictures of horse and a professional forum which focuses more of the business aspects of equine photography.

I was surprised at how many things there were to learn. Various breeds have different standards on how they should be photographed. Along with those differences there are ideal moments for capturing images of horses in action. Dressage has particular expectations. Western pleasure has certain expectations. Hunter jumper images need to be just so.

If you are interested in learning more about taking better pictures of horses then the best thing you can do is to join that forum. They have a 30 day free trial to get you started and you will learn a lot just from that. After that you can determine if you want to join the forum and continue the learning process.

I have been an avid photographer since I was about twelve. It is always exciting for me to learn new things and grow as a photographer. I continue to learn more new things each and every day and I hope that never ends. It can be the same for you if you enjoy photography. Don’t let things get stale. Join a photography club or a professional organization to continue learning and growing.
