What To Expect
Come with me on a photographic journey through Hamburg. We start our journey at the Chile House of the Prima Ballerina of the Kontorhausviertel and look at her under her pretty ballerina skirt, continue walking to Speicherstadt and immerse yourself in the brick gorges and experience Speicherstadt up close. Walk along the Fleete and Speicher past the Speicherstadt Town Hall to the first artificial harbour basin of the Port of Hamburg. After about 2 hours we take a short break, where photographic or technical questions can be discussed in a cosy atmosphere or we just get to know each other better. During our 4 hour photo tour you will teach: what is it about the "perfect" perspective and image structure, get the most beautiful views of your subjects and creative guidance for even more beautiful photos with your smartphone or digital camera. My goal is for you to spend a nice day in Hamburg, that you understand even better than before how good photos are taken and get to know Hamburg from a whole new side. I look forward to an exciting time together with you.

5.00We were with Marius on the 4-hour photo tour and it was absolutely great. I almost feel guilty that I'm writing the review so late. I would book again immediately, I can fully recommend this. Marius is a great companion and very patient and humorous. I happened to be alone with him on that date, my son joined me on short notice, but none of that was a problem. We took very nice photos and lots of information from the trip, was really nice! Greetings
very pleasant and entertaining journey through the history of Hamburg

5.00We did the photo tour with Marius in March. The weather was not so good, but Marius solved that really well. We were then e.g. T. in buildings, in passages, etc. so that we did not get wet. I thought I could use my phone pretty well, but I learned a few tricks about the camera. Marius also showed us exciting perspectives and explained things about the topic of image construction. By the way, there was city history on top. We had a great time:-)
Exciting
