Eliane van Schaik - The Equine Collective

Welcome to my channel.
I help equine photographers grow from passion to professional by focusing on what truly makes the difference: emotion, connection, and a strong photography style. Because great equine photography is not just about settings or editing, it’s about how you see, create, and position yourself.

On this channel, you’ll learn how to capture real connection between horse and human, develop your own recognizable style, improve your editing in Photoshop and Lightroom, and build a photography business that attracts the right clients.
This is not about following the crowd, but about standing out and creating meaningful work.

Ready to go deeper?
Inside my membership The Equine Collective, you’ll find a complete learning path to grow as an equine photographer and build a successful business.

The older I get, the more I realise how precious these moments truly are.
A photoshoot with your horse is freezing a chapter of your life that deserves to be remembered forever.

Some photoshoots are about more than beautiful photos.
They capture connection, emotion, and the moments you never want to forget. Grateful to create these memories together with horse lovers every single week.

Eliane van Schaik - The Equine Collective

Maybe it’s time for a little reintroduction. Hi, I’m Eliane.
An international awarded equine photographer, educator, dreamer, and someone who is completely obsessed with creating a life around passion, freedom, and horses.

I live in Brabant (NL) together with my amazing girlfriend, our little son, 4 dogs, 2 cats, and 3 horses. So yes… life here is basically one big cozy animal chaos, and honestly, I wouldn’t want it any other way.

Photography started as a passion, but over the 15+ years it became so much more than just taking beautiful photos. Most people know me from my photoshoots and fine art equine photography where I capture the bond between horses and humans, but behind the scenes I’m also building The Equine Collective, where I help equine photographers grow their photography, editing, confidence, style, and business.

A few random facts about me:
• I’m obsessed with Starbucks iced cappuccinos
• I can talk for hours about business, creativity, mindset, manifestation, money and photography
• I’m probably editing while listening to podcasts or dreaming up new concepts
• I love creating emotional images that feel elegant and powerful
• Horses calm my mind faster than anything else in the world
• I believe you can truly build a dream life from your passion

If you’d love to work with me, you can find everything on my website:
• Fine art equine photoshoots
• 1:1 mentorships for photographers
• Workshops & experiences
• The Equine Collective membership
• Editing courses, presets, ebooks, and more

And honestly… I love to connect with likeminded people!

I’m happy you’re here.

Still thinking about this beautiful photoshoot in Germany with Erika and her incredible horse.
And honestly… what makes this even more special to me is the bond and trust between them.

Knowing she trained and rides this horse herself makes these images feel even more powerful.

The bond between horse and human will forever inspire me in the deepest way possible and capturing that feeling through art is exactly what sets my soul on fire.

THIS. THIS. THIS.
Art that makes you FEEL something the second you look at it.

The bond between horse and human is pure magic to me and capturing it in this way lights me up so deeply.

I cannot wait to share more from these collections.

I AM SO OBSESSED WITH THIS COLLECTION.
The energy. The feminine power. The emotion. The connection.

This is exactly the kind of art I have been dreaming of creating.
Women fully stepping into their presence.

This project feels like a piece of my vision finally coming to life.
Every photoshoot, every detail and every image is pushing me creatively in a completely new way.
And honestly… I haven’t felt this inspired in a long time.

Creating something with the intention of one day exhibiting it in a gallery changes the way you look at your work. It becomes more than “just photos.”

And this journey is also inspiring something bigger.
I’m currently creating a new program for creative entrepreneurs who want to expand their business, think bigger and create more freedom in their life.
