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 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.

  1. Save time with exact parking info and walk distances

  2. Avoid crowds and discover hidden gems

  3. Plan like a pro with tips on best times, light direction, and vantage points

  4. Build for convenience, everything you need, in one compact guide
