Exploring the Enchanting Lewis & Harris: A Journey Through the Outer Hebrides as a Photographer

Posted on 7th November, 2023

I am currently back in Lewis & Harris with my workshop group and as always, it is stunning! 

I have two workshops here next year in March and November. It’s a location you just want to keep returning to!

Exploring the Enchanting Lewis & Harris: A Journey Through the Outer Hebrides as a Photographer

Nestled off the western coast of Scotland, the Outer Hebrides is a remarkable group of islands that boasts rugged landscapes, sandy beaches and pristine waters.

Lewis and Harris stand out as the largest and most enchanting islands, offering a breathtaking array of natural wonders and hidden treasures that make these islands a haven for photography lovers

As you set foot on the Isle of Lewis, you'll be instantly captivated by the untamed beauty that surrounds you. Lush green moorlands, dramatic cliffs, and pristine sandy beaches paint a picturesque landscape. One of the island's most iconic landmarks is the Callanish Standing Stones, an ancient stone circle that dates back over 5,000 years. These towering monoliths, shrouded in mystery, create a sense of awe and wonder, transporting you to a bygone era and make a fabulous subject to photograph!

Connected to Lewis by a narrow strip of land, the Isle of Harris is noted for its pristine beaches and crystal-clear turquoise waters. Luskentyre Beach, with its dazzling white sands stretching as far as the eye can see, is a true paradise for photographers. The ever-changing hues of the sea, ranging from emerald green to deep sapphire, create a mesmerising spectacle that provides endless options for a photographer.

Throughout my workshops we explore the rugged coastline of Harris, discovering hidden coves, majestic sea stacks, and charming fishing villages that showcase the island's rich maritime heritage.

Lewis and Harris, the jewels of the Outer Hebrides, offer a truly magical experience. Whether you are capturing ancient stone circles, the stunning golden sandy beaches, or one of the numerous abandoned houses to be found on the islands, Lewis and Harris will leave you wanting to return.


So, why not pack your bags and join me on one of my workshops for an unforgettable journey to the Outer Hebrides!
