Welcome to the Stu Brown Photography Blog, sharing stories and photography from Saltburn-by-the-Sea, the North Yorkshire coast, and the Cleveland Way.
Here you’ll find field notes from landscape and wildlife shoots, updates from my photography workshops, and insights into working along one of the most dramatic stretches of coastline in the North East of England.
I spend most of my time outdoors — watching the tides, the weather, and the changing light across the moors and cliffs. This blog is a place to share those moments: coastal landscapes at sunrise, wildlife encounters around Saltburn and the North Yorkshire Moors, and the quiet details that make this coastline so special.
Whether you’re here to discover new locations, improve your photography, join a workshop, or simply enjoy the view — I hope these stories bring you a little closer to the landscape.
Holiday Let Photography in North Yorkshire – Helping Your Property Stand Out
When people are looking for somewhere to stay, the first thing they notice isn't the description or the list of facilities. It's the photographs.
Before they've read about the log burner, the hot tub or the beautiful countryside views, they've already made a decision about whether they want to know more. That's why I believe professional holiday let photography is one of the best investments any holiday cottage owner can make.
