About Gravarty

Photography for me has always been a way to express my creativity. It has also been a love / hate relationship that has spanned over 20 years.

I would class myself as a dedicated amateur with my first experience I can recall as a kid setting up a darkroom in one of my mums cupboards. The pictures were shocking, never quite managed to develop any photos and can fondly recall my mum screaming at me after I knocked the chemicals all over the floor and they started to run through the ceiling into the lounge room below.

In 1979 I joined the Royal Navy and took my camera everywhere I went. I amassed boxes of photos full of pictures I took during my travels.

In 1982 I served in the Falklands and swear I had the photo that would have made the front page of major newspapers worldwide, in my excitement at finally getting a photo I could hang my hat on, I dropped the camera out of a helicopter and that was that.

In 1999 I bought my first digital camera and have never looked back.

In 2007 I made a move to the country and started my love for all thing equine, the highlight was becoming the proud owner of Bazzy Boy (Racing legend of Sorts) and a new found love of photography and hence the equine focus of my recent work.

Feel free to look around. If you like what you see, you can drop me a line via email I would love to hear from you.

And if you have a much loved horse that you would like photographed, need some great photos to help with selling your horse or even have an event that you are taking part in and would like some photos as a keepsake, please feel free to contact me for my rates
