# Mike Hay Photography
Mike Hay Photography offers tailored one-to-one photography courses in the Scottish Highlands, catering to everyone from complete beginners to experienced photographers seeking to develop new skills. Based in Keltneyburn, Highland Perthshire, Mike provides hands-on tuition in DSLR, smartphone and drone photography across genres including landscape, panoramic, long-exposure, macro and aerial photography.
With 29 years in the Royal Regiment of Scotland and a lifelong passion for photography, Mike combines military discipline with genuine expertise in capturing Scotland's majestic landscapes. He removes barriers to entry by allowing students to borrow equipment if they don't yet own a camera or drone, and offers impartial advice on purchasing options. Each course is completely bespoke, designed around the individual student's experience level, goals and interests rather than following a generic template.
What truly sets Mike apart is his commitment to personalised service and accessibility. He offers multiple contact methods (WhatsApp, text, phone, email), provides free no-commitment consultations, and maintains an approachable philosophy of being genuinely available to students. His location in one of Scotland's most visually stunning regions—mountains, glens, lochs, waterfalls and Caledonian forests—provides an exceptional natural classroom. Student testimonials validate his teaching approach, and his willingness to be recognised and approached casually in the hills reflects an authentic, unpretentious business philosophy grounded in genuine passion for both photography and his local community.
