What to expect
Your photographer meets you and leads you through six distinct neighbourhoods, pausing at viewpoints and corners they've scouted for visual interest. Rather than rushed monument-ticking, you'll linger in passages, gardens and streets while the guide frames shots, explains why certain angles work, and shares anecdotes about how each quarter evolved. You'll take photos yourself with guidance, or let the professional shoot whilst you absorb the walking commentary. One thirty-minute break allows coffee or ice-cream. By the end, you'll receive all unedited photos immediately and 120 curated, colour-corrected images within days.
