On 9/1/14 my wife and I went on Alexander B's wonderful photography night tour. Our guide that night was the personable and knowledgeable Caspar. Caspar started the tour in a small cafe near the Louvre and as we sipped coffee and chocolate Caspar went through a short photo power point presentation. The presentation explained what we would be doing that night and showed us some of Alexanders work. Caspar looked at both our cameras and settings then off we went to the Louvre to photograph the pyramid from different angles. Since my wife and I were beginners in photo jargon he helped us set up the cameras and explained the settings and capabilities of our cameras. Before we took any photos Alexander set up his tripod for my SLR camera and explained to get truly great night photos you need a tripod. From the first photo to the last 3 hours later our photos turned out beautifully. My wife uses a little canon and Alexander worked with her to use the AV functions. He had her place her camera on a stable area to get beautiful photos. We began at Louvre and we worked our way to Place De Concorde, Champs and then the blinking Eiffel Tower. We were able to take photos of lights that became stars and learned to take photos of passing cars to produce streaking cars and later by the Eiffel Tower streaking boats. Caspar encouraged us to move around and be creative with our photography. Caspar was there every moment to guide us and our photos turned out so well we walked the Paris streets today to find a camera store to buy a good tripod. This was an amazing, fun and educational evening and a highlight to our Paris adventure! I would highly recommend this tour for anyone interested in night photography and they cater your tour to your ability level. I must also add from before we booked the trip Alexander explained everything and once booked he gave us fantastic directions on where the tour would begin. He also provided us both his and Casper's email and phone if we needed to reach them. Thanks again Steve
