Chasing Light - Adventure Photography Masterclass
Riverside, Aberfeldy, Perthshire, Scotland, PH15 2EB
A 3 day photography course, focusing on moving through different environments with a camera in Highland Perthshire. The course will explore adventure photography - learning to capture the experience of journeying through the outdoors, and showcasing different environments. Across a range of activities, we will move through the outdoors capturing content along the way. Once back at the base we will review our work. We will then explore editing techniques in post production that reflect our individual perception of where the photo was taken. All guiding, activity equipment and safety will be covered for the duration of the 3 days by a Beyond Adventure guide.

Oscar McBurney -
Course Tutor
Oscar stumbled into professional photography in 2012. Through a lifelong passion for bringing back imagery from the outdoors, he has not looked back since turning this passion into a lifestyle. From the mountains of Switzerland to the rivers of New Zealand, whatever the shoot, it always involved movement and bringing back visual representation of adventure in the outdoors.
Since moving back to Aberfeldy in late 2018, Oscar began working the local ambience into his creative work, including teaming up with Beyond Adventure through his company 286 West. It is with this collaboartion that he comes to share the visual playground that is Highland Perthshire.
