Built for photographers who are tired of checking five different apps before deciding whether a shoot is worth the drive.
ShotScout exists to answer one question: should I grab my camera? It scores weather, astronomy, tides, and terrain against your saved locations and tells you whether a shoot is worth going — not a forecast, a recommendation, built from the same conditions a landscape or night photographer actually checks before heading out.
It's not just about that final decision either — ShotScout covers the whole trip. Discover a spot from a catalogue of over 30,000 photography locations (or add your own), predict how conditions are shaping up, decide if it's worth going, leave at the right time, and capture the shot.
I kept doing this manually — cross-referencing cloud cover, moon phase, tide tables, and elevation data against a shortlist of locations — before every shoot. ShotScout automates that check so the decision takes seconds instead of five browser tabs.
ShotScout is built and run by Robert Bridgewater. If you have questions, feedback, or find something broken, reach out at support@shotscout.photo.
