The Relaunch 2023
And what to expect this year!

Well, hello again!
I am SO glad to be back and opening up my diary again. It’s been a loooong break from photography.
Unfortunately, Google suspended my account because it didn’t like that I had changed my address from Swindon to Forres. It’s probably a good thing really, but it has taken me ages to get fixed.
Now that I’m back up and running again, here is what you can expect from me this year:
yard days
Beach days for dogs and horses (families too if you like)
Christmas minis at your yard - dogs will be welcome too
Equine outdoors shoots
Dog outdoor shoots
I’ve made some rather drastic changes to my website and business model - New move, new life, new ideas!
Mini Moo Studios will be focussing mainly on the whole reason I wanted to do photography in the first place - dogs and horses.
Dogs and horses are my passion and I have always wanted to focus my photography on them. However, I somehow managed to get myself into newborns and maternity?! I still have no idea what happened there, but it was fun none-the-less and all great for experience.
I will still be offering newborn, maternity and family photography, but I won’t be pushing them like I have before. All info for these sessions can be found here:
My new sessions at a glimpse
Yard Days
Have you ever wanted to book a photoshoot for you and your horse, but never had the confidence to go through with it? Would you be happier doing it if you could have a few of your friends involved too?
My yard days are perfect for this!
Just imagine - you go down to the yard looking show ready and meet your friends who are all buzzing for the day ahead. You all get your horses ready, looking just as smart as you and the excitement is real.

I turn up with my camera, iPad and probably a coffee and we head to the location of your choosing either close to your yard or within the yard grounds.
This is me, wedding ready, rather than yard ready!
Each person will have a 45 minute shoot. You will all be onside to help each other out and give support when you need it. At the end, I can get you all into one group photo to mount onto your tack room wall :)
After your sessions are over, I will load up your images onto my iPad so that you can choose your favourites* - simple :)

Beach Days for Dog, Horses and Families
Let’s talk about the beaches here - Scotlands best kept secret for sure! Each one is stunning, I can’t not offer beach days!
I will set a date and open up my bookings on my website. You select the time and turn up. We will spend 45 minutes walking up and down the chosen beach for the day, getting lots of natural and posed images for you to choose from. I will load your images onto my iPad before you leave so that you can choose your favourites*
More information on my beach days will be released in the spring - make sure you sign up to my secret sales to be kept in the loop!
Dog and horse outdoor photoshoots

Let’s set the scene - We meet at your favourite location within an hour of Forres and head off on a walk. For dogs, we burn off a bit of energy first and get some fast moving images, before slowing down to get some posed shots. For horses, we set off in search of some good places to take some gorgeous posed and natural images (which will be easy because everywhere here is stunning!).
Once we’re back at the car, I will load up your images onto my iPad so that you can choose your favourites*

Dog Photoshoots
Horse Photoshoots
Christmas Mini Sessions
These have always been very popular in the past, so I will be very excited to open up my bookings for these again this year - except there will be a little difference - they will be held at your yard! I will turn up with all of the props, backdrops and lighting and all you have to do is turn up. These will be open to dogs, horses, families and children - pretty much anyone who frequents your yard (with permission of the yard owner of course). I will be releasing information on these session later in the year, so make sure you sign up to my secret sales to be kept in the loop (click here and scroll down)!
So, there we go. It’s going to be an incredible year planned, with so many new furry friends and their people to meet :)
Be prepared for lots of fun!
Please do ping me a message if you’re wanting to book any of the above. Photo shoots are only booked for a Sunday at the moment and will only be confirmed once the deposit has been paid. Final payment is due on the day of the session, once you’ve chosen your images for me to take away and edit.
*All images will take 3 - 4 weeks to edit
