I will be heading out to the Camargue on Friday to lead our 2018 trip & thought it would be nice to showcase how these imposing steeds look in monochrome. We always try to offer something a little bit different from other operators & in this case; we include a unique portrait session. This is an opportunity to photograph a white & a black stallion in a studio-like environment with both natural & studio lighting.

If you take shots when the sun is at its brightest, the excessive lighting will obscure detail & wash out your image. You are more likely to achieve strong shots in the early morning, late afternoon & on overcast days.

If you remove the colour, you can emphasise qualities like shadow, light, texture, & pattern. I hope you have enjoyed my series of blog posts on the Wild White Horses of the Camargue. I will try & post up an image on Facebook & Instagram every day while I am in the Camargue.
