Colin Jarvis Photography: Devon and Dorset Photography Workshops

Colin Jarvis Photography
Landscape and Architectural Photography Workshops

Isle of Skye Residential Workshop Sun 17th to Friday 22nd March

The majestic and mysterious Isle of Skye is one of the worlds dream locations for any landscape photographer. With its ever changing landscape including mountains, rivers, and coastal scenery, there are plenty of opportunities to capture some of the best landscapes you could imagine.

Covering all the major locations including the Fairy pools, Talisker bay, Sligachan bridge, Trotternish, Elgol, Neist Point, and The Old man of Storr, we will also have time to visit some more unusual locations. I have visited Skye on many occasions and each time I visit I try to add  a new location to the itinerary.

As well as being guided, with a fantastic ratio of only 5 clients to one workshop leader, you can also rest assured that you will be able to spend lots of time working on a one to one basis to not only capture some fantastic images, but more importantly to further your skills. We will make the most of the best light by making sure we are at some of the best locations for sunrises and sunsets, it can be tiring but immensley rewarding.

Whether you are a beginner who needs to learn some of the more technical aspects of exposure, depth of field and filters, or a more advanced photographer who wants to really hone their compositional skills, your needs will be catered for. Places are limited to five clients to ensure plenty of tuition during your visit.

We will be staying in a cottage near Carbost which is about 25 minutes from Portree. I will provide a continental breakfast and we can stop for brunch mid morning to get our energy levels back after an early dawn shoot. We can mix eating together in the house with going out for an evening meal.

There will be opportunity for image review and post processing tuition in the evening over a glass or two of wine.

Feel free to get in touch if you want to have a chat about the workshop before booking. You will need a reasonable level of fitness (especially if you want to shoot the Old Man of Storr as it is an energetic walk). The rest of the locations are relatively easily accessible.
