Reviews
Great no matter what your skill level is
Sam's tour is a photography class in the middle of New York City! You will go to various landmark buildings and take pictures of them from very interesting perspectives and vantage points. If you're a total beginner in photography, he'll teach you the basics. But if you're more advanced he'll show you some nifty tricks! We recommend that you bring a group of friends that have about the same skill level as you so no one is left behind or is bored! He's a banker by day and knows plenty of NY facts and great places to eat and play. Happy shooting!
A fun photography class in the wild!
We've all stuck our noses up at those people with fancy DSLRs that shoot only in automatic mode. My excuse for not knowing anything about photography is that I don't have a fancy camera to play with. I borrowed my friend's camera for this tour and now know how to do the basics like adjust the aperture, shutter speed, focus points, and ISO. Now I can function somewhat decently in manual mode and show up my friends who actually DO have those fancy cameras. I got a bit of architectural history in New York from this tour too!
