If you want to explore the city and take your photography to a new level, get linked up with an impressive professional photographer for a very memorable, enjoyable and insightful few hours exploring photography in Athens. The tour is adapted to your interests and not a cut and paste experience. Shooting alongside a pro you'lI learn a lot in just a few hours and go away from the experience with a new enthusiasm and new ideas about how to develop and improve your photography in the future. A local photographer is great company too and he/she could really provide a highlight to your first visit to Athens.
We either custon a tour according your preferences or we could suggest one of these two route options:
1. ATHENS' HISTORICAL CENTER
Stroll through Plaka, Thiseio, and Dionysiou Areopagitou street where you will learn how to navigate your surroundings, work with light, colour, background, influences and the challenges of the place; Neoclassical mansions and red-tiled roofs, small winding alleys, picturesque stairs, balconies blooming with bougainvillaea, and an intriguing mosaic of people. The whitewashed houses in the more relaxed Anafyotika and its island setting is one of the not-to-be-missed photo spots in the area.
2. DOWNTOWN ATHENS
Document the bustling and artsy life in the neighbourhood of Psiri and the bohemian one of the nearby Keramikos. Both areas offer a wide array of street photography opportunities and consist some of the most interesting faces of the non-classical Athens.
Under the guidance of the pro you will be taught more than just taking pictures, how to expand your ability to choose compelling subjects and portray them in more meaningful ways. A camera provides the perfect excuse to go beyond simply what can be seen, to discover the authentic culture of each place!
