I am planning a Photography Road Trip to Snowdonia National Park, North Wales. A Journey that will allow you to stop at many exhilarating locations and take lots of pictures. I will be available throughout the trip to assist you with technical details, if you need any guidance.

Itinerary

London - Snowdonia - London.

During this trip we will be photographing breath taking landscapes, amazing water falls and beautiful lakes. I have recently been to Snowdonia and can confidently say that this place is one of the most beautiful places in the United Kingdom.

Day 1 Friday 12th May. Leave London at 9 am and arrive Snowdonia 3:00pm (ish) (240 miles)

We will relax at our hostel in the evening and if possible capture sunset at nearby beach and do some long exposure photography at the beach.

Day 2 Saturday 13th May. After having our breakfast, leave our first Hostel at 9am and drive through some most scenic drives in North Wales towards our second hostel in Snowdonia National Park. We will be stopping at most scenic locations and waterfalls.

On second day we will be checking in in another hostel in Snowdonia. I though it was a better option to stay at different places to avoid travelling back the same route.

Day 3 Sunday 14th May. After having our breakfast at the hostel, we will cover many more scenic spots in Snowdonia National Park while heading back to London.

Hopefully we should be back to London before 8pm.

You will be accompanied by V Kumar, a professional photographer and Photography Teacher at The London College (UK). Full guidance will be offered throughout the trip.

Our aim is to experiment with long exposures, light painting and if the weather is good you are going to have a big surprise.
