Wild Photographer is a small UK-based wildlife holiday and photography training company run by Nick Wilcox-Brown.
We specialise in small group wildlife and bird photography workshops and holidays. Wild Photographer also provides camera setup and photography skills training for OM System, Canon and other camera brands, together with post-production courses and training on Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop.
Wild Photographer currently runs wildlife and bird photography holidays and workshops in Somerset, the Cairngorms National Park and Speyside in Scotland, Finland, Spain and East Africa
We deliver nature photography experiences for photographers of all skill levels; memories that will remain with you for life. Wild Photographer will help to build you a 'Photography Tool Kit' that will give you the skills needed to achieve your photographic ambitions.
Out nature photography workshops are based on passion: never aiming for trophy images, simply enjoying time and experience in nature with birds and animals, capturing pictures as we go along.

Do you prefer to be in a group of 10 or 4? Smaller groups mean we have to charge more, but in return you get a personalised experience,undivided attention and you are not herded around in a minibus. Our feedback confirms this has been the correct decision.
We work in pertnership with local guides and suppliers. It ensures that money goes back into the community and helps to protect the areas we love.
Our local guides are the experts on their own areas and the wildlife within them.
The price at booking will always be the price you pay. We have no hidden costs. We keep our overheads low, ensuring that our holidays are competitively priced, without cutting corners.

Our trips are built on a passion for birds, photography and a great deal of hard work, to ensure the best possible experience. Our guests recognise this and we've had some lovely feedback. Here is just some that we have received:
My winter trip to Finland exceeded my expectations. Not only were we able to spend hours watching golden eagles and goshawks close up, plus some other interesting birds, but the organisation, local guiding, company and food were all excellent.
I love taking photos of wildlife. Have done for many years but felt I needed to learn a bit more about getting a better photo. This trip really lived up to the expectations.
The tuition was delivered expertly by Nick who has an obvious passion for photography, wildlife and the environment. Within a few hours my photography had improved immensely
What I really enjoyed about the course was the small group. You got a lot more attention and help than what you would have had in a big group.
