one-to-one coaching
Ready to dive into photography but not sure where to begin? Whether it's catching a glimpse of a curious red squirrel or framing a jaw-dropping mountain view, my photography coaching is all about making your first steps feel exciting, relaxed, and full of discovery.
These sessions are designed especially for beginners—no pressure, no jargon, just good vibes and hands-on guidance. We'll take it one step at a time, turning all those buttons and settings into tools you’ll feel comfortable using. You’ll learn how to spot a great shot, play with natural light, and capture images that actually feel like what you saw and experienced.

Coaching sessions start at just £35.00 per person at two beautiful locations, but I can also travel to somewhere closer to you—pricing depends on how far I’m heading. You’ll also get six months of follow-up photo reviews, so the learning doesn’t stop after our day together.
Let’s turn your curiosity into confidence—and show you just how rewarding photography can be. Bring your camera, your sense of adventure, and let’s start capturing moments that matter.

REMEMBER
As with any photography adventure in Scotland, keep these safety precautions in mind:
-
Weather Awareness: Scotland’s weather can change rapidly. Dress in layers and bring waterproof clothing. Be prepared for rain, wind, or sudden temperature drops.
-
Terrain: Some locations involve uneven terrain, rocky paths, or slippery surfaces. Wear appropriate footwear with good traction.
-
Wildlife: Scotland is home to various wildlife. Respect their space and observe from a safe distance.
-
Tides and Coastal Areas: If photographing along the coast, be aware of tides. Don’t get caught in rising waters. Check tide schedules beforehand.
-
Cliffs and Edges: Some viewpoints are near cliffs or steep edges. Exercise caution and stay away from unstable areas.
-
Navigation: If exploring off the beaten path, carry a map, GPS device, or smartphone with offline maps. Familiarize yourself with the area.
-
Group Etiquette: Listen to instructions and follow group guidelines. Look out for fellow participants and help each other.

I had an amazing time at Gavin’s Glencoe workshop. He made the experience fun, relaxed, and super informative. The views were breathtaking, and the photos I came away with are some of my best ever. Can’t wait to join another workshop!
