Scotland

Scotland is a dream photographer's destination, full of stunning photo spots and vistas that call back to a time long past. Scotland is unique for its long history, rich culture, and breathtaking landscapes. One of the charms of shooting in this northern country is the shifting and changing weather patterns. This ever-changing weather results in varied light that makes even the most iconic photograph locations unique for each photographer. Shooting in the mountainous regions of Glencoe is perfect for the landscape photographer, and the islands in this region are comparable to the famed Faroe Islands. Lesser-known are the island chains in this region. Scotland has more than 790 islands that curiously sometimes even have a Caribbean feel with their white sand beaches. Scotland isn't short on history either. Castles and manors dot the country, and Glasgow features a blend of Victorian-era buildings with modern skyscrapers. Explore the rich history and stunning views of Scotland using the photo spots we’ve collected below.
