Hey there!

I’m Val Miranda, an award-winning landscape photographer based in Scotland. My journey behind the lens began with a simple love for the wild beauty and quiet drama of the Scottish outdoors. There’s just something about the way the light shifts over a misty loch or the hush of a remote glen that keeps calling me back. 

With formal training and a seat on the council of the Edinburgh Photographic Society, I bring both technical know-how and a genuine passion for uncovering Scotland and the world’s lesser-known corners, especially those shaped by water and ever-changing light. 

My camera is my way of paying respect to nature, as I always search for the extraordinary that lies hidden in plain sight. You’ll usually find me standing at the edge of a loch at sunrise, or wandering off the beaten path, chasing scenes that evoke a sense of calm and connection. 

Through my images, I hope to inspire you to look a little closer, wander a little further, and discover your own sense of wonder in the world around you. Each photograph is an invitation to pause, reflect, and connect with nature’s quieter moments—think of it as a visual playlist for anyone who finds peace in the great outdoors. 

Whether you’re a fellow nature lover, an art collector, or simply someone who appreciates the road less travelled, I invite you to explore the wonders of nature through my lens. Let the images do the talking. Sometimes, all you need is a little break from it all. 

Inspiration & Discovery 

What keeps me reaching for my camera is the thrill of discovery and never quite knowing what the next landscape will reveal. 

I let myself be surprised by nature, whether it’s morning mist, golden light, or a hidden view just around the bend. 

Each outing is a chance to find beauty in the unexpected and share that sense of wonder and awe with others. 

I hope you find that same beauty and calm in my photos and that we get to share our passion for the outdoors.

Thanks!

Val
