I could not have asked for a better photography tour, guide or instructor. I had the good fortune of having one of the owners of the company as my instructor and she knew not all the best locations but had amazing expertise in night photography. Long exposures…ND filters….Bulb mode. All the areas that I don’t typically do in my photography. She really helped me step outside of my comfort zone, not only in composition, but from a technical standpoint. I have taken other photography related tours in Europe, and this one was the best.
Thank you very much for your fantastic review. We are delighted that you had the best photography experience ever with Lou. It was our pleasure to help you explore the creative genre of night photography and learn how to use your camera equipment with ease so that you can take great photos anywhere in the world. This is an exciting time for your photography as you continue to develop your photography skills. Wishing you the very best and hope to see you again on your next visit to London.
I enjoyed my photography tour around London. Having a local guide who is both a photography educator and knowledgeable of the local area made this the perfect excursion. I’m an experienced photographer but was only in town for two days on my first-ever trip to London. I needed to make the most of my time while trying to see and capture as much as I could. Home with beautiful images that will soon hang on my walls.
Excellent tour with guide/photographer Lou! We walked the embankment to get spectacular view of Big Ben, St Paul Cathedral, the London Eye and the riverbank!! Don’t miss your chance to spend a wonderful evening of photography! Michon

I had a wonderful time taking night photos around London with Lou. She is very knowledgeable about night photography and photography in general. I learned a lot from her. She talked about composition, using light to compose the picture, and being patient. I got some great photos of the London Eye and St. Paul Cathedral from across the Thames. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to learn more about night photography.

Lou was absolutely amazing and everything that we wanted in a photography guide. She helped with settings on our cameras, she took us to stellar locations where we could get some stunning compositions. She is an excellent teacher, calm and patient. If I could’ve given her 10 stars, I would’ve done so. I highly recommend using her services. :-)

I’m a budding photographer and wanted to learn nighttime photography. I also wanted to see London at night. I found Lou on this site and jumped at the opportunity. In spite of a bit of rain and wind, Lou did not disappoint. I learned a lot and thoroughly enjoyed seeing London at night. Lou is a sweetheart even though she struggled to understand my southern drawl. She is a pro’s pro and has forgotten more about photography than I could hope to know. Don’t hesitate to book with Lou and you’ll love the experience and learn from this pro.

The tour with Lou was fantastic, I learnt so much from her easy style. Her instructions were easy to understand, my questions were all answered and I learnt so much about night photography and my new camera with her. I was able to capture great photos of some iconic buildings in London at nighttime.

Fantastic tour and experience. Lou was a great mentor explaining lighting, composition, exposure and focussing methods. Also gave me some practical tips for night photography and photographing in public. I have now got some professional looking images which I cannot wait to process back home in Australia. I would thoroughly recommend to anyone wishing to improve their city eve/night photography.

I recently bought my first SLR camera. The instruction by Lou was superb and she was very patient--but I was ill-prepared and lacked the experience to benefit optimally from this tour. Notwithstanding my lack of experience, I learned quite a bit about my new camera and came home with some amazing photos.
