"My photo shoot was way more than I expected it to be!
I was so comfortable even though I felt awkward as I'm not very photogenic. I loved every minute of the shoot, and both Anita and Aaron made me feel so comfortable, like we had known each other forever.
This was truly an experience I will never forget and I cannot wait to display the artwork on my wall.
Would highly recommend this experience to anyone."

“Anita’s approach to photography is something so professional, admirable and personable.
Her positive light and energy makes it so hard to be apprehensive or nervous, which made my shoot with Anita absolutely incredible and so memorable.
I could not recommend her enough if you are looking to capture a horse that is so close to your heart, or something that is so special to you.
The finished product has encapsulated me and Sunny’s relationship perfectly as equine and owner. I could not thank her enough!”

“I could not recommend Anita Ward Photography enough, there really aren’t words to express how highly I recommend her.
Having never done any sort of photoshoot before, I was super nervous, but Anita gave me great direction with my horse and pony, and was incredibly patient. She made me feel so at ease and comforted as soon as we started. Her communication before, during and the after shoot was above and beyond what you’d expect. She’s captured memories which will last forever, and I am forever grateful.
I mean it when I say, I am in LOVE with my gallery. Anita and Aaron are such such beautiful, kind hearted people, and sharing this experience with them was such a pleasure. I am already planning for my next shoot.”

"Words can not express the gratitude I have for Anita and Aaron.
Having struggled with self confidence since I was young I have always dreamt of having photo keepsakes of myself and my horse but I’ve always been too nervous to take the step into booking a photographer in fear I wouldn’t feel confident enough when looking back at the images.
Anita and Aaron took every ounce of nerves I had and literally threw them into the sunset!
They were both so incredibly helpful and passionate about capturing the perfect image that I ended up completely forgetting I had a camera pointed at me.
The pictures turned out more beautiful than I ever imagined and I am so incredibly thankful to have photos tied to such bright memories that will last a lifetime."

“Anita - you have such a talent and a brilliant eye!
Anita and Aaron (and ol’ faithful feather duster), you made this photo session SO much fun! I was feeling a bit nervous prior, but that all went away so quickly. I had such a ball and the horses loved you both.
Thank you for allowing me to relax, enjoy myself and for the help handling horses. I am so grateful. The photographs are absolutely breathtaking and I only just selected and ordered today, so I am so excited to see the finished products and art. Thank you x10000!
My advice? Book the shoot.”

“What a fun experience!
Anita was so warm and friendly! I was only just back up on my feet after surgery and Anita and Aaron made me so comfortable, helped me handle the two boys and still captured beautiful photos!
Loved the team work to get Jack's ears pricked.
It's hard to express how great she is to work with, communicate and just be around.
Thank you for this gift and for supporting me through the shoot.”
Nicky
All I can say is thank you.
“I’ve always wanted beautiful photos of me and my ponies, but I’ve never been one to like having my photo taken.
Thank you Anita and Aaron for making me feel comfortable enough to not stress about every little thing and just be able to be in the moment and enjoy myself with my ponies. You guys are absolutely amazing at what you do, especially the way you handled the chaos my needy animals caused.
The directions you give are easy to follow and you made me feel confident and relaxed the whole time.
I’m totally in love with my gallery, they are amazing. I highly recommend anyone wanting gorgeous photos to book you guys in!”

“Anita made my horse girl fantasy come true!
This has always been a bucket list item of mine and I'm so glad Anita brought the magic to life. Being a crazy horse girl herself, she fully understood the needs of both my horses and was so accomodating with both their quirks.
We all had such a wonderful experience.”
Jasmin
“I am honestly speechless with the professionalism and caring nature of both Anita and Aaron! They both made my first photoshoot experience a moment to remember.
Being self conscious of myself, I was quite nervous leading up to the shoot, but the minute Anita and Aaron both started working their magic, the nerves disappeared!
Anita truly made me feel confident and relaxed and I believe that helped achieve the absolute perfect shots. I am in awe of the finished products and I can’t wait to share them!”

“Working with Anita and Aaron was an absolute pleasure and couldn’t recommend them more highly!
They were so patient with me and my boy through all of his quirks and captured such absolutely stunning shots even though I was very nervous as it was a new environment for both of us! 5 stars”
Kelli
“Anita and Aaron are absolutely amazing at assisting you during the actual photoshoot itself. Anita takes the most stunning photos ever and is willing to work with the horse if they become fidgety etc.
I felt so comfortable during the shoot itself.
Anita has excellent communication with you before, during and after the photoshoot including the photo viewing appointment.
You actually feel like a valued customer rather than just taking your money.”
Hayley
“I squeezed in an appointment with Anita into my busy schedule, it was something I’ve always wanted to do but never made the time.
I was feeling a little burnout & tired into the lead up to my session but after speaking on the phone with Anita she soon changed my burnout feeling to being excited, relieved and really relaxed about our session. She spent the time to talk through the best options to suit the horses and I, and when the day came, WOW I had so much fun & felt like I gained another friend out of this experience.
Couldn’t wipe the smile my face! I felt like Anita & Aaron loved my horses as much as I do!”
Naomi
“I had a great time having Anita photograph my horse. They didn’t put any pressure on him at all.
The photographs turned out beautiful and are a centrepiece in our home.
Anita also welcomed me into her home for my image reveal, where we lost track of the task at hand and were chatting like long time friends.
I look forward to working with Anita again to photograph my other horses.”
Veronica
“My experience was amazing! Was full of good laughs, and was so much fun.
The photos look AMAZING! 😍 Thank you so much”
Lilly
“Anita was amazing to work with and was so incredibly patient and understanding when my horse wouldn’t cooperate during most of the shoot. She made me feel so comfortable during our shoot which helped take a lot of my nerves away for our session.
The pictures are gorgeous, such a talented photographer!”
Pip
“Such a lovely person and photographer… made me and my horse feel so at ease (despite the posh get up I was wearing!!)
Very easy to communicate with Anita and then pick out my favourite pictures (so many awesome ones it was difficult!!)
Absolutely treasured photos that will last a lifetime!! So grateful for the opportunity.”

Speaking about her farewell session with her mare Re’Dante.
“It wasn’t sad, the reason for the session was sad but I felt extremely grateful to capture beautiful images and that I got the opportunity to have that chance.
You captured everything I wanted to cherish forever.”

”From the moment I contacted Anita I knew she was going to create something special for me.
Having never done any sort of photoshoot, she gave me great direction with the dogs and was incredibly patient. Her communication before, during and the after shoot was above and beyond what you’d expect. I cannot wait to shoot with her again!”
zoe
“Anita was excellent. I felt confident and excited leading up to the shoot but once you’re on and dealing with animals, I was really unsure what to do! Anita provided me lots of pointers and ideas which made me feel more settled and confident with her direction!”
