✨ What a couple of days we had last week! ✨

A brilliant 2-day Succeed XC Clinic with the one and only Lucinda Green 🏇💨

Such a lovely group of riders, horses and people, and we were so lucky to have the sunshine for two fantastic days of training! ☀️

Day 1 was all about technique jumping on the grass, before heading out onto the XC course on Day 2 to put it all into practice— plenty of learning, challenges and some brilliant riding throughout! 💪🏼

Smallwood provided some fantastic facilities, making it the perfect setting for a great couple of days.

Thank you to everyone who made it such a lovely clinic — hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did! 🥰

Everyone’s photos & reels are complete and uploaded! 🤩

🧡 ✨ Safija & Zebby ✨ 🧡

Definitely a pair to watch for the future! 🤩

This week I headed to Somerford for a last minute camp and we had such an amazing 2 days in the sun! ☀️

I’ve now started including reels as part of my camp packages at introductory offers.. for more information please get in touch!

Tomorrow I’m off to a 2 day camp with the amazing Lucinda Green! My 3rd time photographing at one of her training events and I’m so excited to capture some amazing moments for everyone in both photo & video format! 😍🙌🏼

☀️ What a busy couple of days at Somerford Park! 🐴📸

It’s been a fantastic couple of days covering a really lovely camp. The sun has shone (which always helps! ☀️), there has been some brilliant riding, and it’s been a pleasure to capture so many special moments.

I’m now working my way through all of the photos, and gallery links will be sent out as soon as possible. Once the galleries are finished, I’ll be editing the reels and getting those sent over too. Thank you for your patience while I work through everything!

A huge thank you to Louise & Safija for asking me to attend the camp and helping to organise everyone! Here’s a sneak peak of Safija showing us all how it’s done! 🤩 🐎

Then on to another fantastic clinic next week with Lucinda Green – looking forward to another brilliant few days! 📷🐎

It’s been a while since I’ve had this issue now.. but if the red text on every image on the website isn’t enough, here is another ‘gentle’ reminder..

‼️ DO NOT SCREENSHOT IMAGES FROM THE WEBSITE ‼️

THIS IS STEALING! Myself and other photographers work so hard to provide you with images from your shows and if anyone is caught stealing these photos by screenshotting them, you will not be photographed at future shows. I couldn’t attend the show this Saturday at Oldham and District Riding Club Public Events so I have paid another photographer to cover and the thanks I get is finding that someone is stealing photos ☹️ I’m barely covering costs and people think it is acceptable to steal my images!

PLEASE SUPPORT YOUR PHOTOGRAPHERS OR YOU WILL LOOSE US! 🙈

❌ INFO REGARDING WATERMARKS/COPYRIGHT❌

An informational post as it has been brought to my attention some people are not aware of the reason for my watermark and that you are not allowed to screenshot my images to share on social media! But also that others think this is acceptable! 😠

This has happened as a genuine mistake today so I thought best to inform everyone of the rules.

Any photos on my website are owned by me until they are purchased and you own your own copy, which is why they contain my logo and the wording on the watermark.

If you screenshot and share an image without my consent, this is a form of stealing! Which we all know is illegal.. you will also be put on my ‘do not photograph’ list and I will refuse to photograph you at any future events I attend.

We invest so much of our own money and time into this job, to screenshot and share an image would be like walking into Tesco, taking one bite of a sandwich and walking out without paying!! Which I know none of you would dare do. So please don’t do it to someone trying to build their own business!

Please respect your photographer, treat yourself and BUY THE PHOTOS! 🤩

Digital downloads start from only £6 so I don’t think anyone has an excuse!!

Rant over.. happy Tuesday everyone! ☺️

Thank you to everyone who purchases their images instead of stealing! 🙌🏼😆

✨ Oldham and District Riding Club Public Events Final Showing Show of the Year ✨

The photos from today’s ODRC Final Showing Show of the Year are now uploading to the website! 📸🐴

Although I couldn’t be there today, Jen and Pip did an amazing job covering the photography for me, so a huge thank you to both of them! ❤️

I really missed seeing everyone today as ODRC shows are always such a lovely, friendly atmosphere. I hope you all had a brilliant day! 🤩

The galleries will be appearing on the website as they finish uploading, so keep checking back if you can’t see your class straight away. There are lots of lovely moments from the day, and I hope you enjoy looking through them!

As always, thank you so much for your continued support – it really does mean the world. If you purchase a favourite, don’t forget to share it and tag the page! 🥰📷

It’s been a busy few weeks here at Hill Cross Photography! 📸✨

From private photoshoots to shows, it’s been fantastic capturing so many special moments. Here’s just a small selection from some of the recent weeks! 🐴💕

I’m pleased to say that all orders are now completely up to date. Thank you all so much for your patience and continued support – it really does mean a lot! ❤️

📷 Photos from all recent events are still available to view and purchase via my website, so if you haven’t had a chance to have a look yet, there’s still plenty of time!

Just a little heads-up that I’ll be taking the next two weekends off, so replies to messages may be a little slower than usual.

📍 Oldham and District Riding Club Public Events – Saturday 18th July
Jen will be covering the show for me, so don’t worry – photos will still be uploaded to my website as normal! 😊
DONT FORGET! This weekends Show Jumping has been cancelled due to the heat!

Although I do hope everyone is enjoying this lovely weather (while it’s here! ☀️) and that you and your horses stay cool, hydrated and safe in the heat. 😎💦

Enjoy the weekend, and thank you all for your continued support! ☀️🐎

What a brilliant day at Oldham Riding Club’s Friezland Family Fun Show! ☀️🐴

It was lovely to see so many of you enjoying the day – from the fantastic fancy dress combinations to all the gorgeous dogs showing off in their classes! 🐶🎭 There were so many beautiful rosettes handed out, and best of all, the event helped raise vital funds to keep Friezland available for everyone to enjoy. ❤️

📸 Photos are now uploading to the gallery! Thank you so much for your patience. Apologies they’ve taken a little longer than planned – we’ve had a bit of a bathroom leak to deal with at home! 🙈🚿

💬 Gallery link is in the comments below.

As always, thank you to everyone who smiled for the camera, and I hope you love your photos! 🥰
