| I was fortunate to be the only person on the tour of the Boston Public Garden, so I got to ask unlimited questions of Saba.
She was very informative and encouraged me to look at the usual scenes with a different eye, a different angle and a more intuitive approach.
There were so many more questions that I could have asked her! Not only was she an informative photographer, she had many bits of information of the history of Boston and I think she would probably be a great friend!
I would encourage anyone to take the tour, and to keep your fingers crossed that you were a part of a small group! |

A great walking tour.

| Saba has a great eye for composition and thanks to her advice I not only got good photographs and learned about the Boston Garden and Beacon Hill areas. I have taken a photography course but I think I learned more from Saba about composition and setting up a picture than I did from the course. My wife is not an avid photographer and only took a couple of pictures, but she also really enjoyed the tour. |

| My daughter and I had a wonderful time on this tour. We enjoyed learning some very helpful tips on taking pictures and using our cameras. We had a perfect day of picture taking. Saba was easy to talk to, knew the history of the parkl, and she kept us moving at just the right pace. This 90 minute walking tour felt like a 5 minute walk. I will be telling all my friends about this photo tour. We can't wait to walk the Back Bay tour in the spring! |

| The other people apparently cancelled, so I was the only participant. We covered a lot of ground, both literally & figuratively, since it was a one-on-one opportunity. She is obviously very familiar with both the history of Boston, as well as places to get great images, not to mention photo techniques.
I would definitely take one of her other walks when I have the chance to be in Boston again. |

| I'm interested in professional photography and figured that this might be a small step for composition and such. Loved that it was a small group (there were only 5 of us) and Saba had a lot of good historical information on what we were shooting as well as great composition ideas. I will be joining her on other walks in the future. Got a lot of information for the money I was paying! Enjoy! |

| The tour was fabulous, more than I expected. Saba is very knowledgeable with both the history of Boston and with photography. I am so pleased with my pictures and I know I would never have the same results on my own. Planning my next PhotoWalk. |

| A great time we had had with Saba, our guide, really friendly ! I took two of her tours ( Back bay and Public garden ), and me and my father really enjoyed them ( despite he doesn't even speak english, because we come from France ). We start the tour really on time ( despite a missing person in the group, so we didn't have to wait and be dalayed in our schedule ). Saba really opens our eyes and make us enjoyed even more Boston, with her different point of view to take some great pictures ! Thank you very much ! |

| Saba pays careful attention to each member of the group and makes sure to give helpful feedback on the photos they are taking. We learned a LOT! and got some great shots. Her info on Boston is excellent and told in a professional engaging manner! GREAT day! My grandchildren became very enthusiastic about photography!Bonnie Greenberg |

| I had a most pleasant walk through the Boston Public Garden during the tour. I am familiar with the park, but learned a great deal about some of the statues, monuments and trees. I learned a great deal about how to get the best angle to get really professional looking pictures. The tour guide was very pleasant and gracious. She was very patient in showing me how to take pictures - getting the right angle, lighting, etc.
I would definitely recommend taking this tour and would like to plan on taking another tour in the future. |

| The Boston Public Garden and Beacon Hill was my second photo walk with Saba. She is enthusiastic in sharing her knowledge about the city and about how to take specatular photos. Great for locals as well as visitors!
