Beth’s presentation will be on her scouting trip to the Isle of Skye in Scotland in 2014. Skye is the second-largest island in Scotland after Lewis and Harris. The coastline of Skye is a series of peninsulas and bays radiating out from a center dominated by the Cuillin hills.

Beth Morris is a photographer who specializes in nature and travel photography, but believes that a great image can be taken anywhere and always strives to give a unique perspective to what she sees. She has been shooting since the age of 12 when her grandmother gave her first camera, a Kodak Instamatic.

Beth knew that photography was going to be more than a hobby when she was in New York City and the only way to get the image she wanted of the World Trade Center was to lie down in the middle of the road between the two buildings and shoot straight up … much to the dismay of her family.

In 2008 she, along with her partner Rob Skerman, founded Morris Skerman Photography. While they offer workshops to multiple locations, their primary loves are the southwest coast of England, and the southwest United States and they have created a successful formula for workshops that combine history, creativity, fun, and technical support with the goal for every photographer to be inspired by their experiences with them.

In addition to the workshops, her images can be found on postcards that sell along the south coast of England, as well as on several stock imaging sites. She speaks at numerous camera clubs each year and she has also recently been contracted to do marketing work for a pub company in England.

Beth is a member of the Northern Virginia Photographic Society (NVPS) and the Weymouth Camera Club (WCC) in Weymouth, England.
