Hi all after a bit of advice, I have been given the chance to photograph a forthcoming march.
The idea of the march is to highlight awareness of horses on the road to drivers; this is after a young driver mowed down a horse and rider while speeding through a village, and ended up killing the horse and seriously injuring the rider (my sister in law). There has been a petition signed and they have been given permission form the police and local council.
Here is the problem, they are trying to raise some fund to get a bridle path re-opened, the idea it to sell / take orders for photos. They are also planning to do horse and rider portraits at the end of the march. I have spoken to Jessops in advance and explained what we are planning and they have offered a 50% discount on the photos we have printed.
I am happy to do photos as it for free, so I am not charging, but I was a tad worried if my kit is up to the job as there is a good chance the local paper and a well-known horse mag might also require some photos.
The kit I have is Canon 550d, 18 x 55 kit lens, 17 x 85, 50mm and 55 x 200.
Thank you in advance.
