What Can I Expect

Coastal photography - a weekend surrounded by glorious seascapes! You and your camera will join professional photographer Alan Ranger learning to take amazing landscape photos of the Great British coastline.

We are offering vouchers to attend one of a trio of themed weekend workshops dedicated to photography. Coastal locations include Suffolk, Devon and Dorset. All have been chosen by Alan for their variety of landscapes, natural and manmade features - all of which are very photogenic!

In Suffolk, the shoreline is the main attraction. Imposing piers, rows of cute beach huts and small fishing harbours all make up the charm of Suffolk's coastal lifestyle. This is where learning about long exposures comes into its own.

Down in Dorset you'll be exploring the Jurassic coast. A highlight for any photographer is Durdle Door. It's an iconic image of this part of the coast. Alan will help you to find your own photographic style to capture it, encouraging you to experiment with the abstract and black and white.

Over in North Devon, your photography weekend is centred around Hartland Quay. We're talking fierce tides, dramatic rocks, rugged shorelines and sandy beaches. All of which make for fabulous photos.

From sweeping sandy beaches and sand dunes, to waterfalls and swirling tides, you'll encounter the very best of this country's coastline during these delightful weekends away. Everything has been organised and arranged for you and Alan, as your photographer tutor, is also a great host.

If you're into photography and love to travel too, these coastal photography weekends away will be perfect for you. Buy your vouchers online now and get your camera ready!
