Lake District Photography Weekender

Take a break from the rat race and join photography guru Pete Sherrard and Lake District lassie Kirsty Johnston for a weekend of landscape, lagers and learning!

On this weekender, we’ll be exploring the very best photography locations, from Britain’s most sublime views to quintessential villages. This is a weekend of early rises to catch the best light and late nights in the local pub. But it’s all going to be nice and relaxing, as we’ll be snapping against the sound of sheep bleating and chickens clucking.
