A landscape photography retreat…..

For women

In the beautiful and wild Glenfeshie Estate in the Cairngorms National Park

From Frid 22nd May 2020 - Mon 25th May 2020

The world needs more female viewpoints. The world of landscape photography even more so. Let me work with you to help develop your eye, immerse yourself in the landscape and increase your confidence.

  • Take inspiration from the wildflowers, the ancient caledonian pines surrounding us and the wildlife including golden eagles, buzzards, red squirrels and maybe even some reindeer.

  • Enjoy creative discussions in the evening accompanied by nourishing locally produced food and the comforts of a wood burning stove.

  • Photograph an atmospheric sunrise over Loch An Eilein and its island castle ruin.

  • Stretch your legs in a walk around Uath Lochans and a short hike up Farleitter Crag and photograph the panoramic views over Glenfeshie. On a calm day, the water is like glass and makes for beautiful reflections.

  • Indulge your passion with like-minded people in a supportive, empowering environment.

  • Seize the opportunity to truly immerse yourself in the landscape with a wild swimming lesson and dip.
