PARIS IN BLOOM

Capture dreamy photos in parks and gardens of Paris, while learning or improving your photography skills!

Paris is a truly photogenic city and beautiful in any season. Spring, Summer and Autumn are best periods if you want to capture Paris in bloom! Colorful flowers and plants in the beginning of the season turning to magical golden colors in the end. Join me on a customized one-to-one workshop and explore the gorgeous and romantic parks in Paris with your camera. Get swept away by lush, green havens, elegant statues, seasonal flowers and plants and beautiful alleys. As a tourist with a keen interest in photography your time and local knowledge is limited. A photo tour with a local photographer is an investment in creating a lifelong memory of your journey while improving your photography skills. My ambition is to provide you with tools and increase your skills, understanding and knowledge in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

The French gardens that are characterized by symmetry and perspective, a perfect playground for a photographer. You will have me as your private guide taking you to perfect spots for capturing the magic! The parks and gardens are beautiful and photogenic spots. I know them all and I am here to share them with you.
