Jack Lodge
Landscape + Nature Photographer from Dorset
My work varies from ancient bluebell woodlands in Dorset to polar bears in the arctic circle, and I am very experienced in running workshops and tuition for all levels of photography - from beginner to professional.
I am extremely proud to be an ambassador for Kase Filters UK and Fotospeed, and work closely with Canon, my camera brand of choice since 2021.
When the alarm sounds at 4am and I make my way to a mysterious bluebell wood, deep in the Dorset countryside, or scramble along the Jurassic Coast to shoot some dramatic seascapes, it’s a rewarding experience that is seriously hard to beat - and getting to share that with others is my goal.
Growing up in Dorset, South-West England, and living in a little market town called Wimborne, I am extremely fortunate to be surrounded by stunning landscapes, iconic landmarks and magical woodlands right on my doorstep - Dorset really is a landscape photographers’ playground. However, as time has passed, my time and availability to travel has increased, allowing me to spend sometimes months at a time in Norway, Italy, Wales and Scotland, with my dream list of locations to visit growing by the day.
One thing that landscape photography has taught me over the years is to make the most of shooting the seasons, waiting for the fresh Spring greens, scouting locations for Autumn colour, or taking shelter from a Winter storm, it’s all part of the landscape photography journey.
Landscape photography is my way of being able to capture moments in time, landscapes which tell a story that will last forever. I am a firm believer in printing my work, bringing the digital art form to life through tactile papers, and have seen my prints shipped internationally.
You can join me on one of my passion-filled, season-themed landscape photography workshops, or book some bespoke 1-2-1 tuition for a more personalised photography experience.

“We've just finished a 3-day private workshop with Jack, and what a fabulous time we had. Jack is an absolute blast - he's hugely experienced, a great teacher, lovely company and guide. I can't recommend him highly enough - our group was pretty experienced photographers, which Jack totally took into account and tailored accordingly.”
