Rupert Gibson is “a commercial photographer working throughout the UK. Mainly covering fashion and product photography for magazines, brochures, websites and social media. I also shoot commissioned landscapes and numerous equestrian events.” He is undoubtedly a skilled photographer, but potential pro-wildlife clients might like to know that the ‘numerous equestrian events’ Mr Gibson covers appear to be largely fundraisers for the notorious Cottesmore Hunt, a hunt known for the thuggish security it employs to ‘protect’ itself from scrutiny. The Cottesmore Hunt Facebook page itself directs people to Mr Gibson’s website for photos of, for example, their ‘Fun Ride’ at Grimsthorpe Castle in August 2025. Other Cottesmore events are also listed.
