Description

This three-hour session is a completely unique way to capture the awe-inspiring beauty of Birds of Prey such as the Barn Owl, Kestrel and European Eagle Owl.

Whats involved

Our meeting point is our centre within Moss End Garden Village. Here you meet the falconers and fellow photographers.

We then have a quick safety talk and general tips for getting the best out of the photography session.

The aim of the Photography Session is to create a relaxed atmosphere where you are able to get truly up close and personal with our birds, using a range of props to create an image that is as natural as possible. Plenty of time is given to each bird and advice offered on framing the bird, how the bird might move, wing size so as to avoid just clipping the wings out of the frame and much more.

There is a break halfway through for coffee, biscuits and a chance to look through your pictures so far.

What do you need?

A camera is all you need, this can be a DSL all the way through to a phone camera all are welcome. You are also welcome to bring along video cameras.

If you have them, then we recommend a variety of lenses.

The birds allow us to get a range of shots including Macro, wide angle and fish eyes. We are not working at massive distances or trying to spot a dot on the horizon!

If you have an idea or a prop that you would like to use please feel free to contact us beforehand or let us know on the day and we will do our best to figure out how it can be achieved. If you would like to have a look at some images taken at Feathers and Fur then please click here.

This session is perfect for anyone that has a camera whether its a top of the range SLR or simply a phone camera. It is also available as a voucher if you would like to give it as a gift and have a validity of a year.

    Never disappointed at Feathers & Fur and yesterday was no exception. The forecast was for rain and high winds and arrived at F&F and it was still raining. But Sadie, ever the optimist offered us all teas/coffees and biscuits and within 40 mins the clouds were clearing and the rain stopped. All the birds performed excellently and we were all able to capture some wonderful shots from the extended morning session. I think this is the 4th time I have been to a photography shoot and it was as special as the first…great place Sadie! Just love your birds…

  2. Sharon

    We such an amazing day! Sadie and her team are so helpful and enable you to take the most magnificent shots of their awesome birds. I’m disabled, but with walking sticks and using a chair, I managed to enjoy the session as anyone would. Can’t recommend it highly enough. It’s a must go to. Can’t wait to go again!

  3. Geoff

    Absolutely fantastic as a photography day. The owner and falconer does their absolute best to make sure you get the shot you want, though you may not have known you wanted that one.
