Woodland, Coast & Landscape Workshops

From ancient woodland and quiet lochs to sea cliffs, beaches and wider Scottish landscapes,
each workshop is shaped around the places, subjects & conditions you are most drawn to.

  • Woodland Photography Workshops in Scotland

    Scottish Woodland Photography Workshops

    Ancient woodland, birch trees, moss, lichen, bluebells, intimate landscapes and atmospheric forest scenes.

    Learn to slow down, simplify busy woodland spaces and create stronger compositions from shape, texture and light.

  • Coastal Photography Workshops in Scotland

    Scottish Coastal & Seascape Photography Workshops

    Seascapes, cliffs, beaches, tide movement, long exposures, rock formations, wave patterns and changing coastal light.

    Work on composition, shutter speed, filters, timing and safe field craft around the coast.

  • Landscape Photography Workshops in Scotland

    Scottish Landscape Photography Workshops

    Broader landscape photography across glens, lochs, woodland, coast, hills and natural places throughout Scotland.

    A good starting point if you want to improve your landscape photography generally, or are unsure which subject route best suits you.

Private Photography Tours
in Scotland

A private photography tour gives you time, flexibility and local guidance without the rush of a fixed group workshop.

Whether you want a single focused day, a few days in the Highlands, or a longer Scotland photography journey, I can help shape a route around the landscapes, light, weather and subjects that matter most to you.

Every tour is arranged by enquiry, so the experience can be shaped around your dates, pace, mobility, travel plans and photographic interests.

The aim is simple: to give you a calmer, more personal way to photograph Scotland, with enough structure to make the most of your time and enough flexibility to respond to the conditions

Led by Duncan Wood

Multi-award-winning Scottish landscape photographer based in Angus.

My work is calm, practical and place-led, shaped around light, landscape and the kind of images people want to make or live with. My workshops and private tours are personal and unhurried, with attention to pace, place and clear decision-making in the field.

Whether you are a complete beginner or a more experienced photographer, the aim is to help you make clearer decisions in the field and come away with more confidence.
