Colin Prior Reviews 127

My visit to the Small Isles led by Colin surpassed all expectations. The guidance, photographic opportunities, and organisation were second to none. A really priceless experience, being privileged to be guided by Colin and visiting such amazing places. Would thoroughly recommend on all accounts.

Muck and the Small Isles - Amazing, Awe-Inspiring, Beautiful landscape photography adventure!
Colin’s photographic expertise, instruction and guidance was unsurpassed. He took time with all individuals, no matter their experience and provided skillful and helpful insight. I am a novice photographer and the learning experience I received in the field with Colin’s eye and skills were extremely helpful. His patience was unwavering.
We were based on the Isle of Muck for 7 days, (which we had ample time to explore), Colin also took us to other places on the Small Isles, including Rum, Eigg, Canna, Sanday, an archipelago of Coll and Isle of Coll. They were all incredible and full of beauty and composition!
Looking out at the landscapes, all around and at every angle, provided a palate of intrigue, beauty and photographic inspiration! An experience I will never forget! I will long to go back, to experience again.
I Highly recommend this photographic/hiking unforgettable experience! Thank you! -Arlene D.

I recently attended a week long photography workshop with Colin. The group was based on The Isle of Muck, off the coast of Scotland and went to 4 other isles. It was a true five star experience! Colin provided a lot of great group and individual attention and I learned so much. This included many talks at mealtimes, as well as before and after meals. I hope to be able to take another workshop with him in the future. It was a fantastic experience!

This was my first Colin Prior workshop but I have been on over 20 others offered by other companies.

I found the entire experience (and it is an experience) very rewarding. The hotel was excellent and included some wonderful food with a wide range of options. Breakfast, a packed lunch and dinner were all included.

The locations were well chosen and a number of ferry crossings were also included and fully inclusive. In fact the only extras were optional drinks.

Colin is an excellent tour leader and of course landscape photographer which is why I was there to begin with. Advise was given when needed and it was great advise based on his knowledge of the location and also the years he has spent behind the lens.

Thanks Colin and I am certain you will be seeing me again.

I had a fantastic trip, learning to see the pictures, the light and essential viewpoints and came home with some of my best panorama photos ever. Great food, and hiking trips as well.

I am still sorting out from a large catal;og of pictures.

Only thing with this trip was the weather being too nice. No clouds for 4 days, but Colin managed those challenges well, and helped me to develop some stunning photos.

I consider myself extremely fortunate to have been guided by Colin on the Skye and Torridon photography tour. He curated an experience and course that introduced and immersed me in the tapestry of this wonderful part of the world. His patience and dedication to his craft was evident and I came away with a lot of tools to experience the terrain, compose in different lights and compose a photograph with emotion. Will certainly be back.

The Ardnamurchan, Morvern & Moidart workshop led by the renowned photographer Colin Prior was inspirational. The locations visited... forests and coastal was a photographer's paradise giving opportunities to shoot Scotland in all it's Autumn glory... differing shades of red, amber, gold, green and brown. A workshop not to be missed

Everything so far has gone very well, although the actual Workshop is several months away in the future.

I love Colin Prior's tours so much that I signed up for another as soon as I returned home. Every aspect of each trip has been planned to perfect. The accommodations and food are always extraordinary, and Colin's photography knowledge is endless.
I look forward to my next trip.

Quality of leadership with well researched locations, transport, excellent accommodation, good food and company of like minded people makes for a quality experience.

Quick delivery and book arrived in A1 condition

Great book. Inspiring

Really quick reply and full refund for a dvd I inadvertently ordered
The book I eventually purchased was superb

Colin is an inspirational photographer and wonderful guide. He worked hard to tailor the trip to the group, carefully planning every aspect whilst generously sharing his time and wisdom. I learned so much from the insights he shared about his own practice, as well as from his experience of the incredible landscapes he brought us to. The week was creativity-fuelling and soul-refreshing.

Colin Prior's photographic tours are truly fantastic! I have travelled with him for 3 years in a row and I would book again in a heartbeat. Colin is an incredibly skilled and knowledgeable landscape photographer who generously shares his expertise with every member of the group without hesitation. He will not only take you to the most beautiful locations, he will do his utmost to find the best possible time to visit, taking into account weather conditions, tides, the direction of the light etc. Colin is also a joy to travel with. Kind, funny, and intelligent. If you don't produce some fantastic images, and have a wonderful time, I think that might be on you!

Have had one of Colin’s calendars for years now and always had superb service whenever I’ve ordered.

Colin made an incredible experience for "The Small Isles" trip i attended this july. His knowledge and coaching throughout was super helpful and i learnt alot about myself and new ways to "Look through the lens"

Also Colin has ensured that every aspect of the trip is 10/10 from the partners he chooses to work with to provide accomodation, food and transport. This all means that you can focus on enjoying the time together with Colin, the group and the landscape.

I already plan to attend another tour because i know it will be another fantastic experience.

This was a fantastic trip. The locations we went to were stunning, with endless photographic opportunities. Having Colin’s technical knowledge and experience, along with his familiarity of the area and access to local services made for an unforgettable tour – educational, informative and inspiring. It was well organized, professional and the food and accommodation at Gallanach Lodge was top class. I thoroughly recommend, I’ve already booked a different tour for next year.

This tour was excellent. The Gallanach Lodge on Muck was superb with gourmet food and a great selection of food for me as a vegetarian.
Having a boat to take us to various islands made for a wide variety of venues and photographic subjects.
All the people we came across worked hard to ensure we all had the best experiences (including a bespoke trip for one person and a sail around to another venue for me to avoid a difficult walk).
Most importantly we had Colin’s knowledge and expert tutoring to encourage us to take better images and I learnt a huge amount.
I am already looking at the next opportunity!

A coffee table delight!

I have all the A class landscape photography books but Colin’s Collectors Edition of Scotlands Finest Landscape in coffee table format is a stand out addition one that will give me hours of continuous joy. Bravo Colin a masterpiece..
