PhotoWalks

We decide to do the Beacon Hill tour to celebrate our thirtieth birthdays. We've grown up in the Boston area and it was a fun way to take a close-up look at our city in a way we never see day to day.

Not only did I get some great shots, but I also learned a lot about the area! I was hoping there would be more of a photography lesson involved.

I throughly enjoyed the Freedom Train Photowalk. Not only did I get some great shots of the city, but I also learned a few new interesting facts about Boston.

The photowalks tour with Saba on Beaconhill was fantastic. I was very unfamiliar with the area but instantly fell in love with it, and Saba was able to point out every little detail and knows the area intimately. I would definitely take this tour again and will recommend it to all my friends.

I enjoyed the Back Bay tour. Interesting historical information as well as getting a different perspective on how to take a picture. The only thing I would recommend is taking a digital camera with you.

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

Saba, did a super job! She knew her history, as well as her photography. Boston is SUCH a great city, and this was the perfect way to explore it. It was a nice balance of historical information & photography techniques & composition. Saba is a true professional in every sense of the word. She loves what she does & that really translates! Thank you for a wonderful day, Sincerely, Lisa Katilus

A wonderful way to see Beacon Hill. Fun and lots of information too! Highly recommend. Tour guide knowledgable friendly.

It was a fun activity and gave me new ideas o how to take pictures of the city

I went on the photowalk to get tips on shooting pictures, but was pleased to learn a bunch about Boston during the process. Saba does well to show you both the history and different ways to look and capture a scene. Well worth the price and time.

Zaba offered a very educational tour of the Waterfront of Boston that encluded valuable historical knowledge and picture worthy photo destinations that encluded the North End. I was able to capture composition, as well as her vision, for what turned out to be a rather focused tour - suitable for framing. Her walking tour was grossly underpriced for time spent and information received. I'm thinking seriously of another tour with her at either the Back Bay or Beacon Hill sites. I highly recommend her tour ... thank you Zaba!

I would recommend this tour to anyone. I spent a delightful afternoon learning about Boston and trying out new ideas with my camera. Saba gives you a good historical overview about special places along the Freedom Trail and helpful hints for photographing them. You go home with an appreciation for events long ago, the changing city today, and some great pictures. The tour ends in the North End, and afterwards I enjoyed visiting and photographing Old North Church, Copp's Burial Ground and the local neighborhood streets, inspired to try some of the techniques I had learned. Saba tailors her tour to any level of photographic experience. Family members who don't have cameras will also enjoy the tour with this very hospitable guide.

Because my friends and myself are from Boston or the immediate area, we were familiar with the geography of Beacon Hill and had walked the streets a number of times before. However, your narration added fun and interesting facts and we enjoyed being introduced to new aspects of our town.

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! Kathleen Hill

This tour was definitely worth the time and money. If you want to learn how NOT to take photos (that seem boring once you get home to show family and friends) consider this tour a MUST do while in Boston. What you learn from Saba helps you take photos like a pro. When I got home to have a look at my photos they looked like something out of a magazine. I've learned how to frame photos with the right lighting and will take those skills with me wherever I go. I'm definitely going to be recommending Photowalks to all my friends and family who come to the Boston area. Thanks, Saba!
