The Isle of Skye offers some of the most extraordinary scenery within the British Isles and, combined with the luminous quality of light, provides an exceptional location for photographers at all levels to cultivate and stimulate their photographic potential . This new range of workshops, all devised and led by Alan Campbell, are designed to provide personal guidance to promote photographic talent within an enjoyable small group of like-minded individuals.

To match the inspiring landscape, the residential workshops are based within the sumptuous accommodation of Ord House in the south of the island. The 5-star accomodation with views across Loch Eishort to the majestic Cuillin mountains and the isles of Canna and Rhum provides a fitting complement to the magnificent landscape we should encounter during the day. The residential workshops are much more than simply a course of instruction and particpants can expect to be enveloped in the history of Ord House and the fascinating environment of the island. As such, the exclusivity of the Weekend and Extended workshops may appeal as much to couples or to a group of friends as to the individual traveller.

an introductory, 1-day, non-residential workshop for beginners or those requiring the confidence and inspiration to take more control over their image-making
for those with a basic understanding of the fundamental camera controls, this 2 day residential workshop is designed to enhance your understanding of the creative elements within photography allowing you to move towards instilling your photographs with a sense of atmosphere
with similar objectives to the weekend workshop, the 4-day extended workshop provides the time to really explore our locations and, with a little luck, make some extraordinary images
   
Rather than book onto one of the open workshops, you may prefer a private workshop completely tailored to your own photographic requirements.

As an island resident, Alan has an intimate knowledge of the magnificent mountains, the coral beaches and the towering headlands with an acute awareness of the best locations to visit throughout the year. The Isle of Skye offers a hugely varied landscape within a compact geography and Alan chooses locations that themselves offer inspiration and variety to extend the talents of photographers at every level. Typical locations may include remote beaches, brooding lochs and if the weather is suitable, we may also make images of the renowned jagged peaks of the formidable Cuillin mountain range.

Embracing both film and digital technologies, Alan has developed a method that allows the photographer to quickly grasp the fundamentals of image-making before moving on to develop a combination of technical competence with creative flair.
