I was fortunate to be able to tour and shoot with Vieri on one of his masterclass workshops on the Isle of Skye recently. Vieri does an outstanding job of having in-depth knowledge of the best locations, together with practical advice on how to capture striking images and teaching all aspects of landscape photography. I believe I came away from the workshop with almost a dozen strong images to add to my portfolio. I have since registered for two additional workshops in 2018!
I have been exploring and photographing the Isle of Skye for over 15 years now, going back every year since my first visit in 2009. Over the years, I have never ceased of being surprised by the wealth of inspiration offered by the Isle’s landscapes. With its abundance of iconic locations paired with hidden, incredibly inspiring ones, from grand vistas to minimalism, the Isle of Skye has it all. Its powerful, moody and ancestral-looking landscapes instantly felt like a home of the soul to me, I fell in love with the stark, austere and moody beauty of the Isle of Skye on my first visit and no matter how many times I have been there, every time I go back, I find new inspirations and shooting locations!
Designing your Isle of Skye Residency, leveraging on over a decade of experience leading more than 110 Workshops, 14 of which on the Isle of Skye so far, I created a completely new, “vertical” Workshop concept covering everything you will need to know, from photographing iconic locations in a personal way to finding and developing your own, from working in the field to editing and processing your photographs, to creating a Portfolio.
All our years of experience and exploration of the Isle of Skye will make sure that we will have more locations on the Isle than any other Workshop, locations we will have the time to revisit as much as needed to help you create a strong, original Portfolio showcasing your vision of these inspiring Scottish landscapes in the best possible way.
Never changing hotel will give us the opportunity to do advanced post-processing sessions every day and edit your photographs, whether digital or film, to get the most of their potential while staying true to your vision, and I will offer you unique insights on how I create my personal work, develop and edit it.
Designed to be the ultimate, “vertical” Workshop for those wanting to go deep into understanding, interpreting and bringing the Isle’s moody and dramatic landscapes of to life, your Isle of Skye Residency will be a truly unparalleled photographic and learning experience!

Vieri is as strong as a teacher and photographer as the images on his web page are showing you – 100% pure craftsmanship! From the e-mail correspondence and follow up you get before you leave your home for the workshop, to all the on-location work Vieri has done for you before you arrive, everything is just making your valuable time as a student very efficient!
This just confirms that Vieri is not one of those photographers that likes you, as a student, to pay the bills for him getting new images – he just wants his students to learn as much as possible during his workshops!
To make the most out of your time with us, we recommend you will bring to the Workshop:
