Hi everyone!
London, Scotland, and Ireland are among the top destinations worldwide for capturing iconic landscapes and cultural photography.
Join us in the vibrant summer season to explore the breathtaking landscapes of the UK and Ireland. Experience the lush greenery and stunning vistas at their finest!
These incredible landscapes have been my pleasure to capture as a photographer for over a decade. From the historic streets of London and the rugged beauty of the Scottish Highlands to the lush landscapes of Ireland - you'll be transported to a world of photographic wonders.
You will have THREE (With a possible secret 4th guest) world-class photographers at your disposal, guiding and coaching you photographically every step of the way as we explore these marvels together.
Imagine the thrill of traveling through world-famous geysers, vibrant fall colors, majestic mountains, pristine lakes, diverse wildlife, and winding rivers!
Imagine the thrill of capturing iconic cityscapes, vibrant summer colors, majestic castles, stunning coastlines, and diverse wildlife!
Capture timeless photographs that you can showcase to friends and family and sell online for the rest of your life!
This workshop is more than just an opportunity to learn about photography; rub shoulders with the pros, get shots you'd never get alone, and get help editing them in between shoots.
So when you get home after the trip you have an incredible portfolio ready to sell!
This is an opportunity like no other. It is the first in-person workshop of its kind that not only helps you capture world-class images but also helps you sell them!
The in-person insights you’ll gain by being around my team of pro photographers and me, who are making a killing selling their art online, is a chance that may never come around again.
In our group, The Thriving Artists sell their work. With the most active students who put in the work selling hundreds if not thousands of dollars of their prints each month! This is a white-glove opportunity to learn from the very best, get your questions answered, and make fantastic advances in improving your online shop in a trip like no other!
Clifton Haley (of Monday Nuts and Bolts Fame!) will be there with me and you every step of the way!
Immerse yourself in the incredible natural beauty, indulge in the local culture, and mingle with fellow nature enthusiasts!
I am thrilled to be hosting this workshop and can guarantee it will create incredible memories for all participants.
Much Love, Craig Alexander

Arrive The Day Before:
Here are a few of the hotels and restaurants nearby, as well as the airport you should fly into!
The workshop starts on May 28th. If you are in the US, you should fly out of the US on the 26th of May, and you’ll arrive in London on the morning of the 27th of May. That way, you’ll have a full day to acclimate before the workshop begins on May 28th. If you don't want to spend a day of rest in London, you can fly in on the 27th, but I don't recommend it!
There are two hotels that you can fly into.
1. London Gatwick Airport LGW
2. London Heathrow Airport LHR
It's essential to book your hotel early to stay near the rest of the group!
The instructors will be staying at the Premier Inn London County Hall hotel
Other great nearby options would be
Option 1 (More expensive) London Marriott Hotel Country Hall
Option 2 (Less expensive) Premier Inn London Waterloo (Westminster Bridge) hotel
No matter where you book, I recommend being within walking distance of the central meeting point. (which will be the hotel the instructors are staying at) Otherwise, you may need to book a taxi to the pickup spot, which I don't recommend,

There are plenty of restaurants in the area here. Feel free to grab a few of your fellow photographers and plan a bite!

Frequently Asked Questions
Depending on which Photo adventure you are coming to, that answer will vary slightly.
Photo Adventure 1 - London
The workshop starts on May 28th. If you are in the US, you should fly out of the US on the 26th of May, and you’ll arrive in London on the morning of the 27th of May. That way, you’ll have a full day to acclimate before the workshop begins on May 28th. If you don't want to spend a day of rest in London, you can fly in on the 27th, but I don't recommend it!
There are two hotels that you can fly into.
1. London Gatwick Airport LGW
2. London Heathrow Airport LHR
Photo Adventure 2 - Scotland
It would be best to fly from London to "The Isle of Skye, Scotland." on May 31st. This is a direct, inexpensive 90-minute flight. MAKE SURE YOU ARRIVE AT THE AIRPORT BEFORE 3:30 PM ON MAY 31ST! That's when the vans are leaving! (If you book past this, you may need to rent a car or hire your own taxi to get you to the Isle of Skye, a 2.5 hour drive!)
