The horses came first.
The passion for racing followed.
I was introduced to horse racing through my husband, who grew up in the sport. Racing opened the door to a world I had never known before, but it was the horses that truly captured my heart.
Their character, intelligence and sensitivity fascinated me from the very beginning. When my husband and I welcomed two horses into our lives during their racing careers, they quickly became part of our family — and they still are, living out their retirement in their forever home with us.
Sharing life with them taught me that every horse has a story far beyond the racetrack. That perspective inspired me to pick up my camera and it continues to shape every story I tell today.
Every story begins with the horse.
For me, the horse always comes first.
Care, respect and trust are the foundation of my work. They allow genuine moments to unfold naturally, creating authentic stories that reflect the heart behind the sport.
Whether it's a quiet morning at the stables, the anticipation before a race, or the emotion after the finish, I'm always looking for the moments that tell the story beyond the result.
Those are the stories I choose to tell.
Beyond the lens.
When I'm not behind the camera, I'm usually spending time with my two retired horses, my horse still in training — whose forever home is already with us — and my Rhodesian Ridgeback.
Alongside photography, I work as a coach and trainer in personal development, supporting both individuals and organisations. Helping people grow has taught me the value of patience, observation and genuine connection - qualities that naturally shape the way I approach both people and horses.
