      Highland Shoot

      Our photography holidays are designed to help you discover Scotland’s wild places and wild light. Whether you are looking to develop your skills or are already a seasoned photographer looking for The Shot you’ll be able to explore the stunning Highlands and Islands in the company of an expert guide.

      Our photography holidays are guided by passionate and knowledgeable guides, including Colin Prior; one of the foremost landscape photographers in the UK.

      Back to the Wild

      These trips combine practical instruction in wild places as well as relaxed discussion sessions back at the accommodation. With small groups of 8 – 10 people, much of the photography coaching is offered on a one-to-one basis.

      These trips are graded at a reasonable Green 3 and walking is conducted at an easy pace. However, as the terrain can still be rough even at low level in these wild and beautiful locations a reasonable level of fitness and sure-footedness is still required.

              Every client receives a feedback survey when they return from their guided, self guided or tailor made holiday with us. Once completed the review is published on our website just as soon as our database updates. The little touches and details are important to us and where issues are raised we make positive changes to our trips to improve your experience.

              That’s why we read each of our client’s reviews and although we don’t respond to all of them, if it’s glowing feedback then we get the satisfaction of helping to make your holidays truly memorable.
