Highlights
  • Bastille - Behind the Place de la Bastille in the 12th arrondissement, slumbers a completely different Paris with its share of secrets. Cabinetmakers and carpenters were once legion along the Faubourg Saint-Antoine. Their vestiges are striking such as multiple interior courtyards. We would almost forget that we are in Paris. An old railway line transformed into a park becomes the perfect vantage point to discover a different perspective of the Quartier. The Arsenal and the Marché d’Aligre complete the district, making it perfect for taking photographs during a stroll.

A wonderful workshop - This workshop was great! I had Clara as my guide. She was knowledgeable, friendly and patient with me, which I really appreciated as a beginner to photography. She has a true passion for photography and that has inspired me to find my own style. Truly a wonderful learning experience. This is a great workshop for beginners wanting to get of auto and start using manual.

Clara in Paris was the best!! - Clara has huge fans in NYC!! When I found out Clara was going to be our guide, I read some of her publications and was excited to learn from this pro because she likes to travel the unbeaten path and has a sharp eye for the authentic side of Paris. When we met her she got to know about our goals and interests. We shared that we really wanted to learn all the technical things and she not only made things easy to grasp, she made them fun. Clara is kind and patient. Just the best!! We learned about photography, Parisian culture & history and so much more. My only regret was booking on our last day in Paris. I would’ve definitely booked additional workshops with her. She even told us about the cool Normandy trip/tour. Adding that to the bucket list. Thanks Clara!!

Wonderful time and fantastic new skills - Such a perfect afternoon with Julia. She is encouraging, kind and very knowledgeable. It felt like I was in Paris with a long time friend ❤️. We walked through beautiful local areas in the Latin Quarter and spent time capturing photos in ways that were unique plus I have new camera skills to use forever. I’m inspired and so grateful 😊. Thank you Julia!

Federica knew her stuff - Spent a three hour walking tour at night with Federica tutoring me on techniques in night photography. She took me to a variety of sites for photos ….ranging from the typical to some really interesting back streets. This was a wonderful and educational tour

Fantastic street & night photography tours with Clara! - For anyone interested in photography, whether you’re a beginner or advanced hobbyist, I’d highly recommend this tour! My guide, Clara, helped create a tour hitting all the highlights. She went at my speed, offering tips and tricks along the way. I had two tours – the Night Photography and Street Photography, and I’d highly recommend both! She was an excellent tour guide, and so glad that I booked this tour to capture some of the beauty of Paris! Thank you for a wonderful experience, Clara!

Excellent private tour - Had an excellent one on one night tour with Clara last week. As we met on the Pond Marie, she clearly asked me what I wanted to accomplish for the evening. Thus informed, she designed a session for me. With her photography background and knowledge, we visited sites where I could capture some more unique Paris scenes and explore using some time lapse/long exposure techniques. Her guidance on camera settings, positioning, and composition were most helpful. I feel I captured some great images and look forward to post processing them further.

Clara is Amazing! - I went on 2 tours with Clara during my week in Paris: an afternoon tour of Montmartre and a night tour of Paris. Clara is a talented photographer and an excellent teacher. She helped me with my camera settings, taught me how to photograph in different lighting conditions and worked with me on composition. I am so pleased with the photographs I took with her guidance. On top of all that, she is a joy to spend time with. The time I spent with her was definitely the highlight of my time in Paris! If I am ever back in Paris, I will be sure to book another photo tour with Clara.

The best way to see Paris! - We went on a night photography tour with Julia and loved seeing Paris in a different light! Julia was excellent company and showed us many different spots to get great photos of Paris. We shot bridges, buildings, people on the street and of course the Eiffel Tower. I shot with my Nikon DSLR and my husband had his iPhone X. Julia was able to give us pointers based on our different cameras, and we both walked away with some favorite photos. Communication from the company was great, as we knew exactly where to meet. While meeting spots should be a no brainer, we had trouble with other tour companies in Paris, so it was nice to have these details worked out. I’d highly recommend booking a tour with Aperture Tours!
