About this tour
Spend two and a half hours walking through central Paris with two published fashion photographers who'll teach you how to see the city through a lens. You'll move between Notre-Dame, the Latin Quarter, Pont Neuf, the Louvre and Tuileries Gardens, stopping at carefully chosen vantage points to practise framing, natural light and portraiture. Ali Ghorbani and Fernando Fierro—both contributors to Photo Vogue and college lecturers—offer real-time feedback on your shots. You'll leave with a Polaroid portrait and a sharper eye for composition.

What to expect
This is a walking-based workshop, not a museum tour. You'll move at a steady pace between central Paris landmarks, pausing only at pre-selected spots where the light and composition reward practise. Your instructors will critique your shots, discuss technical choices and suggest adjustments to your framing. Expect to walk several kilometres—it's not a leisurely stroll. Bring whatever camera you own, whether smartphone or DSLR; the focus is learning to maximise your own gear rather than using top-tier equipment.
Good to know
Bring your own camera or phone. No monument entry fees covered—you're photographing exteriors only. The pace is regular and the distance substantial, so it's not suitable if you can't walk comfortably for two hours. Water and snacks aren't provided. Public transport runs nearby if needed.
