“Every location was spot on — saved me hours of planning.” — Mark T
Perfect for photographers who want stunning images without long hikes or complicated planning. Every guide focuses on accessibility — pinpointing roadside and short‑walk locations that deliver professional‑quality shots from easy‑to‑reach viewpoints.
Whether you’re short on time, prefer simpler routes, or just want to maximise your shooting opportunities, these guides take the guesswork out of finding great locations.
Current guides cover Anglesey & North Wales, Scotland’s South & Western Highlands, the Lake District, and Liverpool.
These guides aren’t about cutting corners — they’re about cutting out the wasted time so you can focus on the joy of creating images.
Ste has always believed that landscape photography should be about creating images — not losing hours to blog‑hopping, guessing where to park, or hiking miles only to watch the light disappear behind a ridge.
He spent years chasing light across the UK: early alarms, long drives, missed sunrises, and more wasted hikes than he’d ever admit. Like most photographers, he loved the adventure, but he hated the inefficiency — the vague directions, the “park somewhere around here” advice, and the locations that looked nothing like the photos online.
Too many spots were impossible to find, miles from the nearest parking, poorly described, photographed from angles nobody explained, or simply not worth the effort once you finally arrived.
So, he started keeping notes. Real notes. Field‑tested, easy‑to‑reach
locations with clear parking, simple access, and honest guidance about when they work — and when they don’t. Those notes became The Lazy Photographer Location Guides.
Today, every guide is built on the same idea: remove the faff, keep the adventure, and help photographers spend more time shooting and less time planning.
