Photography Tour Overview:
A photo tour that will include Vermont classic images such as the Jenne Farm, the Woodstock region, Peacham, 'the Craftburys', 'the Burkes', the Stowe region, the Northeast Kingdom, covered bridges, barns, waterfalls, and macro shots of the brilliant red, orange and yellow Maple leaves. In New Hampshire we'll cover the best of the White Mountain region including some colorful mountain passes. This New England region is photogenic during most of the year, but when autumn brings with it brilliant and fiery colors, and hopefully a touch of morning fog, you ought to be there with your camera. In addition to our 'foliage foray' will be studies of covered bridges, classic farm scenes, macro leaf shots and all that comes naturally with this rustic, historic, lush, golden and pleasant rolling land. Our trip takes in what we consider as the 'essentials' of Vermont and the White Mountain region of New Hampshire plus much more. As with all of our photography tours, early and late shooting is scheduled for each day.

 


Our itinerary . . . But first things first! We suggest that you set your camera's clock to the local time, as your images will then synchronize with the times in our included photo tour field notes.

Days 1 + 2  |  Burlington to Woodstock
We'll gather at our Burlington hotel at 9:30am and and head off into the colorful, leafy yonder heading south across the rolling Vermont landscape. We'll pause at midday for the included lunch and a digital orientation of images you'll likely capture during this photography tour. The day will be spent shooting fall color [obviously!], villages, covered bridges and waterfalls et cetera. Sunset is scheduled for a high elevation pond where the color is often stunning.
We’ll start day 2 at sunrise down at the New England autumn classic, Jenne Farm . . . probably the most photographed farm in the United States. While in the Woodstock area we'll make time for a photo session shooting the simple things that are stunning when done right, i.e. tumbling water, colored leaves and fungi. We'll also point our cameras at New England classics including the Quechee Gorge, Woodstock village and a sugar shack et cetera.
Near Woodstock, 2 nights

Days 3 + 4  |  The White Mountain region, New Hampshire
Dawn shooting near Woodstock followed by breakfast, then a north-bound journey on a back road - very fertile photographically speaking - for a succession of classic Vermont farms, ponds and more. We then turn in the direction of New Hampshire traveling via small communities and making frequent stops for color, covered bridges and more. On over the Connecticut River into New Hampshire where late in the day we'll be on the colorful and spectacular Kancamagus highway on which we'll pause for an easy trail to a waterfall. Shooting on the pass is often nothing less than spectacular. On to Conway for our 2 night stay. Day 4 sees us shooting early at a classic lake scene, plus exploring waterfalls, covered bridges, Bear Notch pass, and more in a region which will be vibrant with the 'fire' of Maples, Birch and Beech. All this and much more during our stay.
Near Conway, 2 nights

Days 5, 6 + 7  |  Peacham and the Northeast Kingdom
Early shooting as usual, and following breakfast we head back to Vermont. On into the White Mountains above which Mount Washington stands tall at 6,288 feet . . . the highest peak on the eastern seaboard. On to Saint Johnsbury for our 3 night stay via multiple stops for photography.
Days 6 and 7 will see taking loop trips around the regions of East Orange and Peacham, plus a section of the Northeast Kingdom. One loop will include ponds with colored reflections, leaf macros, colorful hillsides, and many quaint villages. The second loop - another day of 'Maple mania' - will see us head north then westwards via covered bridges, more quaint villages, a back road overlooking the colorful Vermont landscape, and Lake Willoughby. The day will conclude with sunset over a lake.
Saint Johnsbury, 3 nights

Day 8  |  St. Johnsbury to Burlington via Stowe
We'll make another early start for first light photography, fog is common in the area, then following breakfast we'll head west via more covered bridges to the Stowe region for a classic church and colorful hillside one last time. To the Von Trapp family lodge - think 'Sound of Music' - which affords spectacular views of the Worcester Mountain range to the east. Then via colorful Smuggler's Notch for our last covered bridges followed by an old mill. The included dinner on the last night of our photography tour will feature an 'It's You!' presentation of clients in action on this tour by John.
South Burlington, 1 night

Day 9  |  Departure day
As there isn't any photography scheduled for the day of departure on this trip, your flight home can be arranged for any time today. Transport to the airport is included unless you’re staying on for a day or more.
