Been to Norway, Lofoten with Tyler, 7 days of photography, 7 great days in good company. Tyler knows photography and is very will prepared, get us to the right place at the right time, we visited amazing locations. Tyler gives good advice about focusing and composition. Driving on the ice roads is a skill, never felt unsafe for a moment!
I would highly recommend booking one of his tours or workshops, you won’t be disappointed.
I would like to say that the trip to Iceland was all that I hoped it to be; and more. Your organisation, driving and ability to get us to the right place at the right time was appreciated. I could not have asked for more.
To see the northern lights on three nights was icing on the cake and the trip to the glacier was for me unexpected and very, very special. Magic.
My husband and I recently spent 7 days with Tyler in Iceland on a photography tour. What an amazing experience!! Not only did we manage to capture the northern lights but Tyler made sure that we visited and experienced some of the best photography sites the Iceland south coast has to offer.
We encountered some harsh weather which led to roads being closed but Tyler was innovative in his approach to make sure that we then captured sites closed to where we lived keeping our safety as a primary concern. He was on hand to offer advice on camera settings but he was never intrusive to our own style and that was really appreciated. We will definitely tour with him again either in Ireland or Iceland.
He is a cool guy and tour guide!
What an amazing week that was ! I already visited Iceland once in the past but a dedicated photography workshop really makes a huge difference. And Tyler is no stranger to the success of last week workshop. First keeping voluntarily the number of participants low (we were 4) makes the experience more 1-to-1 style, more personal. Easier to get advice on composition, equipment,….. Tyler really works hard for everybody to have a wonderful time and to get back home with pictures to be happy with, sometimes driving very long distance just to get the right light at the right moment. He also constantly adapts the schedule to both weather conditions and participants wishes. Don’t be deter by the relative lower prices compared to the crazy expensive 15-participants workshop one finds on internet. This just makes the choice of Tyler’s workshop even more straightforward. Would I go for another workshop with Tyler ? Tomorrow without any hesitation! Thank you Tyler ! Thank you ! Thank you !
I recently returned from a 7 day photographic tour of Iceland, expertly led by Tyler. He brought us to some amazing sights along Iceland’s southern coast. With Tyler providing much-appreciated photographic guidance throughout – particularly around composition, using filters, metering & post-processing. During our visit, we had some challenging weather conditions but Tyler’s knowledge of the area allowed him to adapt our itinerary and help ensure that we made of the most of our time on the island. I look forward to taking part in future trips/workshops with Tyler.
I attended Tyler’s Lofoten tour Feb 2020 and what an experience it was. We got some amazing photos and Tyler is a first class guide with great knowledge and experience with conditions being tough he still went out of his way to get the group to locations where others would have just said no it’s snowing and subsequently we got amazing winter shots. I would wholeheartedly recommend Tyler as a guide and an expert on Northern lights with such experience and gut feelings which paid off with four nights of aurora activity. Book him now you won’t regret it.
I recently participated in a two day one on one Wild Atlantic photography tour with Tyler. I live in Sydney so I booked it from the other side of the world. It was an easy and pain free experience as Tyler was always available and prompt with his responses.
Tylers approach to customer service and his accommodating personality meant that I learnt quite a bit from our two days together in the Sperrins, Donegal and Causeway Coast. He has impeccable local knowledge of the Irish countryside and coastline. His tours give you access to hidden jewels that you would not normally find if looking for yourself on a tight holiday schedule.
I would like to thank Tyler for his photography tour and I fully endorse and recommend his services to all photographers from all levels.
I look forward to the next time I am visiting home (Northern Ireland) when I will be sure to catch up with Tyler again and try out other areas.
A great experience to Isle of sky with Tyler, I have learned a lot from him. I am expecting next trip with Tyler again!
I was out in Iceland with Tyler at the beginning of October and had such a great time on the workshop. I learned a lot and came home with lots of photos that I am so pleased with. Tyler has such a great depth of knowledge both on the photography side as well as on the travel side going around Iceland. He went out of his way to make sure everyone was happy with what they were able to shoot and went that extra mile – literally! to ensure we got to see the aurora as well as driving long distances to take us to locations that not everyone is prepared to travel to. You couldn’t meet a more helpful person, I would go on another tour without hesitation. 5 out of 5
I participated in Tyler’s Iceland workshop last week and have to say I had the most AMAZING 4 days. Tyler’s knowledge of photography and Iceland were invaluable to making the whole experience so memorable. He is very patient, courteous and never left a location until we were all happy with our shots. He would review our images and offer advice and encouragement. He drove long distances to make sure we covered as many of the photo opportunities that the varied landscape of Iceland has to offer. I’d have no hesitation in recommending Tyler’s Iceland workshop and hope to do another in the future.
I joined Tyler and Steven for the Iceland photography tour back in October 2019. It was my first time in Iceland and I’m glad they were able to show us around the place. They taught me new photography techniques like shooting panorama and the proper settings for capturing the aurora. They also made sure we got to the best locations by planning out the timing of the light and when it’s not full of tourists. We also stayed in amazing hotels / hostels. I would definitely book another tour with them.
Recently back from a trip to Lofoten Islands with Tyler and could not recommend him enough. We had an incredible time, Tyler was always on hand to give advice or suggestions on how to improve our composition or image. His driving skills in the snow was amazing always felt safe when travelling from location to location even though the conditions were terrible. His knowledge of the local area was super answering any questions we had and always had an interesting few facts to share.. Having small group sizes meant that we all got as much help as we needed and he would make sure to go round the group multiple times on each location., He made the week fun, enjoyable and one to never forget. If you are considering a photography workshop look no further and get yourself booked. You will not regret it!!
I recently returned from a workshop with Tyler at the Lofoten island’s. The whole trip from start to finish was excellent. Even when conditions were extremely difficult for photography (2 day snow blizzard), we managed to get fantastic images, if it wasn’t for Tylers determination to get us out, I would have stayed in the log cabin with the fire going! Tyler had obviously done his homework regarding sunrise and sunset locations, and due to this we got nice side lighting on each location. We were lucky enough to get aurora 4 nights out of 7 and the last night the sky exploded which put the icing on the cake. Tyler is a perfectionist when it comes to composition and i learnt a lot from him during this trip. If you are looking a tour where you a going to visit Epic locations, get great tuition and brilliant craic Tylers your man.
Just came back from Iceland from one of Tylers workshop and had the time of my life. I learnt so much from this workshop. Tyler was very attentive to all that were on the group, answered all my questions without hesitation. If you are looking to have more knowledge in photography this workshop is exactly what you want and need. You will go back home wanting more. Thank you for all.
Tyler’s tour of the Lofoten Islands was an incredible experience. If you are expecting 5 star hotels and fine dining look elsewhere but what you do get is real knowledge of the area and some great inspiration to take epic photos. We were lucky enough to see aurora 2 nights of the trip but the rest of the week was spent in some amazing places. Highly recommend Tyler Collins Photography
Great trip with Tyler to Iceland. Well thought through itinerary and his dedication and commitment are unsurpassed. Look forward to travelling with him again next year.
