Oli Turner is a visual artist and photographer from Yorkshire whose work explores the deep connections between landscape, ecology, and the living world. Rooted in a multidisciplinary practice, her approach to wildlife photography combines a passion for conservation with a fine art sensibility — encouraging a slower, more attentive way of seeing.
Now based between the remote and beautiful Morvern peninsula and Glasgow, Oli brings a fresh perspective to the Wild West Coast experience. A guided trip with her may include encounters with eagles, otters, wading birds, and waterfowl, as well as visits to ancient and prehistoric sites that reveal the layers of history within the landscape itself.
With a background in analogue photography — often working with medium-format film — Oli enjoys sharing the tactile, mindful process of using traditional cameras. Guests can learn how to load film, use a light meter, and develop an intuitive feel for light and composition. This slower pace of photography naturally complements Morvern’s calm and contemplative environment.
Equally at home with digital photography, Oli can help you refine your technique, develop your eye for wildlife, and capture striking images of Scotland’s elusive creatures.
A recent graduate of the Glasgow School of Art with a First-Class BA (Hons) in Fine Art Photography, Oli has received several awards, including the Visual Arts Scotland Graduate Award and selection for RSA New Contemporaries.
