Best suited for an intermediate photgrapher, but OK for beginner - 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.

Fantastic night photography journey - I did the Christmas Lights tour with Lou and learned a ton so I decided to take another tour with her to refine my skills. I had a great time - made better by the recent rain and captured some really cool shot. Lou is a wizard at settings and helped me really understand night photography much better. Highly recommend!

Private Traflagar Square to South Bank Photo Tour - Highly recommended. This nighttime photography tour with Lou exceeded all my expectations. I was on holiday with my family in London and was looking for a photography guide to help improve my nighttime photography skills, while exploring the city. I found Lou on Trip Advisor and read through her ratings which were excellent. She did not disappoint!
From the beginning, Lou took the time to understand my photography skills and what I was hoping to accomplish during the evening. Her background in fine arts, teaching and her superior photography skills made for a most enjoyable evening and one of the highlights of my trip to London. By the end of the 3-hour photo session, I had a much better understanding of my own camera, and more importantly how to compose great photos which I would be proud to display in my home. I was very pleased and would highly recommend Lou for anyone looking to capture great photos of London. I plan to return to London Photo Tours and Workshops on my next trip to London. Thanks Lou!

Lou Was a Fantastic Guide and Teacher! - Lou was a fantastic teacher. I was new to the camera that I brought along for the tour, but Lou has such great experience on various cameras that she was able to get me up and running in no time. We largely stayed in the area around the London Eye because I had to cut the tour duration by an hour, but Lou adjusted and made sure that every minute was time well spent. She had great thoughts on composition and camera settings, and was engaging throughout the tour. I was extremely pleased and will look forward to hiring her the next time I get to London.

Explore Your Creative Side - Lou was great. She helped me learn more about my camera and taught me how to take excellent night shots and explore my creative side. Just wish I could remember it all! Guess I'll have to come back and take the class again (would be totally worth it!)
