Driven Game
The Field, in Full Focus
Elevate your driven shoot day with the addition of a dedicated fieldsports photographer, capturing the atmosphere, action, and camaraderie that make these moments unforgettable. At Smoking Barrel, we specialise in turning each fleeting moment — from the first light over the fields to the heart-pounding rush of game birds overhead — into lasting memories that truly honour the spirit of the day.
What’s more, our approach makes it easy and affordable: each gun simply contributes the equivalent of one additional bird, meaning there’s no added cost for the shoot organiser. This way, you receive professional photography services that capture the day’s excitement, shared laughter, and timeless traditions without any extra expense to the estate. With a Smoking Barrel fieldsports photographer capturing your shoot day, you’re not just preserving memories; you’re making the experience unforgettable for your guests, capturing every moment that makes the day special.

In the world of driven game shooting, every moment is rich with tradition, camaraderie, and excitement, each one deserving to be captured and remembered.

We’re there to capture not just the scenes but the spirit that makes each shoot unique, providing guests with a visual keepsake of their experience.
Armed with the industry-leading Canon R5 cameras, we bring a level of clarity and precision that reveals the true beauty and intensity of the field.
