Louise Sedgman gallops through equine portrait craft, from embracing softness and motion to staging a “Black Beauty” night scene. She breaks down her switch to the Nikon Z8, lens choices for safe, flattering horse work, and the systems behind a thriving Santa photo operation—bookings, sets, lighting, tethering, and delivery. We also cover her mobile pet studio, the “Golden Oldies” dog project, and an upcoming Morocco masterclass. Packed with practical workflow tips and creative spark.
===========================================
Louise is a devoted mum, wife, and creative soul living in Drouin, Victoria. A lifelong horsewoman and artist, she could draw horses before she could even write her name and her love for them has only grown stronger over time. What began as sketching her beloved animals evolved into a deep passion for photography when her mum gifted her a camera in her early twenties.
For nearly 30 years, Louise has dedicated herself to mastering the art of photography, capturing the beauty, strength, and emotion of horses and the profound bond they share with their people. Her work celebrates real, timeless imagery, the kind that becomes treasured family heirlooms passed down through generations.
Beyond her photography, Louise loves to share her knowledge and creative spirit with others. Through her workshops and mentoring at The Foto Creative, she helps photographers of all levels discover their own artistic voice and connection to the world around them.
For Louise, photography is more than a profession; it’s a lifelong journey of passion, emotion, and storytelling.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
