121 NORTH WALES PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOPS
I lead 121 and customised small group photography workshops anywhere within North Wales. During the 121 workshops we typically visit 3 different locations and photograph a range of subjects which could include mountain scenery, waterfalls, glacial lakes, stunning beaches, lighthouses and ancient castles.
These workshops are flexible so we can head out early to photograph a beautiful sunrise, end the day with a sunset or just wander with the camera during normal daylight hours... it's your choice!
Please note these workshops can run on Fridays, Saturdays or Sundays.
