Hi, I’m Amy!
In 2008 I began taking photographs at small shows on a weekend between school and uploading them to my website – all entirely as a hobby. I now have expanded and I’m able to offer printing on the day service at events. Our images are quickly available to view on the day due to an expansion in our IT equipment as well as always having the images online within just a few minutes of your dressage test or class finishing. We believe we offer extremely competitive value for money with our products and services.
All of the individual’s involved in Amy Griffiths Photography have been chosen for the passion for all things equine as well as their skills with technology. I strongly believe it is much easier to teach people who know about horses how to use a camera, than it is to teach someone who can use a camera, all about horses! That would be a lot of nuance and knowledge to squeeze in to a crash course!
It will generally be me (Amy) who you deal with via social media/email/phone. I will always be on photographer duty as opposed to printing whilst on the day but I also do the majority of the printing after the event. I am also the person who will do any editing or photoshop work you might require.
Both photography and all things equestrian are my passion- making my equine photography & printing businesses a complete dream job. I have experience as a horse show organiser, horse rider, show handler and horse owner. For a show organiser this means I know how your event will work, what your expectations will be and in what way our services can be used following the event to promote your future events. As a horse owner you can be assured that I have a good idea of which angles will most flatter your horse as well as which moments are most special to be captured.
I have competed ridden ponies up to the highest levels in showing. I don’t ride anymore due to major heart surgery, but I couldn’t be without horses of my own so I still have miniature horses and a Shetland pony. I’m pictured below with Prin, the first pony we purchased following my heart operation and riding my first pony Splash in 2005.
My partner Dan does a lot to help the business running smoothly! He covers everything from on the day printing, IT support and also photographs himself too. We use several freelance photographers who are handpicked for their ability behind a camera as well as their expertise in the equestrian world. We all value the importance of celebrating and documenting victories from your first clear round rosette, to qualifying for Horse of the Year Show.
