It was Kay's dedication to hunting and supporting local packs that secured her a nomination for a Countryside Alliance Award.

Meanwhile, Sarah also documents hunts. She has worked with more than 100 packs adding hunting and photography were her passions in life. The awards ceremony will take place on March 13.

Commenting on the photographs, Citizen and Gloucestershire Echo picture editor Carey Tompsett said: "Their work is absolutely stunning and really captures the essence of part of the rural life in Gloucestershire."
