This was an amazing trip! We covered more than we thought would be possible. Aiste was an amazing photography teacher. I learned so much from her and she was so patient. She planned the day so well with a sunrise photo and then on to other beautiful places that we could not have visited on our own. A perfect day. Thank you for this memorable experience. And for the photos you had taken and then dropped off at our hotel along with other NZ memorabilia.

Even though we are not photographers, we chose the tour because we liked the flexibilty and thought we might see some places not on the regular tours. Both proved to be real rewards. Aiste was terrific as a host and went out of her way to take us to wonderful locations, including some out of the way ones. She also took photos of us for our trip album. We highly recommend Aiste and the tour. It was worth every penny.

I am a total Beginner, but after that Tour I got a first feeling for the three main set ups with my camera. I am definitely motivated now to continue this. Furthermore we saw the nice landscapes of Queenstown. I can definitely recommend this.

It was our first time to join a photography tour. Aiste photography has provided us a lovely memory of Queenstown which is unique and personal. Aiste responded to our enquiry promptly. She picked us up at 6 am and we drove out of town in her comfortable Range Rover. The sunrise scenery and the locations she took us were amazing. There is no doubt she is an artist photographer because we have learnt the photographic tips how to make nice compositions, aperture and to catch the good moments. Nevertheless, she was very helpful and took some beautiful photos for us too. We felt we were having another wedding photos taken after forty years. The snack provided were all New Zealand products. We love com back in winter time to join her tour again!
