In 2003 Erwin de Wolff started his career as a specialized horse photographer.
In previous years, he portraited weddings and people and nature he encountered on his worldwide travels.
Erwin started at the top location of (equine) photography, namely Gestuet Schieferegg,
the Andalucian Finca of Ulrike Marcik, established in Villamartin, a small village in Spain.
There he photographed the rare Iranian Asil Arabians, ridden by Tina Weidner, a German endurance
rider who beat reining World Champion endurance Miguel Vila in the 200 km long race known as Copa del Rey 2006!
Erwin immediately became an internationally recognized equestrian photographer, because of the first collection of Schieferegg/Weidner
photos.
After this first success, many other succesful shoots followed.
One of the most beautiful places close to our home is Dutch Joy, the endurance and Arabian training centre
of Yvonne van der Velde. Fifteen years ago, Yvonne and her purebred Arab stallion Joy Jashin were the cream of the crop of European endurance, ranking 1st at the ELDRIC list. Nowadays, Yvonne continues to compete at top level endurance with the progeny of Jashin.
At Dutch Joy, Erwin took many excellent photos that are now published worldwide.
One of the most artistic shoots was our report on Op Gen Busschelen endurance team.
The magic was there that day and Erwin portraited Desiree Haanen and her endurance Arabians at their
very best!
He also photographed famous Olympic dressage rider Rafael Soto Andrade at the Real Escuela Andaluza del Arte
Ecuestre. Erwin then also started to specialise in photographing the Andalusian horse, a very 'showy' breed.
