Riders & sponsors

Sponsored rider photoshoots

A sponsor shoot gives riders and the brands behind them a shared library of images. One planned day covers portraits, ridden work and product detail, so both sides have content for the season ahead.

For riders

Keep your sponsors, approach new ones

Strong images help you keep the sponsors you have and approach new ones, with one consistent, professional set to draw on all season.

  • Portraits of you and your horses
  • Ridden work and action
  • Images for social media and press features
  • A consistent set for sponsorship proposals

For sponsors

Your products in real use

Brands receive images of their products in real use by the riders they support, planned around what your marketing needs.

  • Products and kit shown in real use
  • Rider, horse and logo detail
  • Images for campaigns, catalogues and social media
  • Material for sponsor reports

How a sponsor shoot works

  1. The brief

    We talk through what the rider and each sponsor need, then plan a shot list and a location.

  2. The shoot day

    A planned day at the rider's yard, working through the shot list at the horses' pace.

  3. The image library

    A private online gallery of finished images that the rider and sponsors can both draw on.

Questions

Before you enquire

Who books the shoot, the rider or the sponsor?

Either. Some shoots are commissioned by the rider and others by the brand, and the images can be shared between both.

Can one shoot cover several sponsors?

Yes. The shot list is planned so that each sponsor's products get their own set of images.

Who can use the images?

Usage is agreed before the shoot, so the rider and each sponsor know exactly how the images can be used.
