Preparing your horse:
Please groom as if you were going to a show. It is up to you wether you plait or not. Choose whichever way you prefer your horse to look
Have a clean leather head collar or bridle for your horse and a plain lead rope (preferably black or brown to co-ordinate with your head collar
If you are planning to clip, or do any mane pulling, please do this a few days or a week in advance so that it has time to settle in before the shoot
If your horse is likely to be particularly high energy or fidgity you may wish to consider a little light excercise beforehand just to take the edge off – not too much you don’t want them to look exhausted!
If you can organise a friend to help you on the day, to hold your horse while you get in position, rattle buckets etc.
