I went on a Photography Tour of the Cape Peninsula and a Photo Walk in the City with Greg. Cape Town always feels a bit like home to me, as I spent an academic year at the UCT a couple of years ago. So I was looking for a customizable tour that doesn’t simply check off the highlights like a shopping list, but instead allows for a more playful approach to photography and thereby discovering familiar places from a new perspective. Greg gave me very useful tips that really made a difference. He explains the idea behind a certain technique and encourages you to explore and play. Greg patiently answers all questions and assists when necessary.

During our tour we did not only chat about photography and I really appreciated that he also shared his knowledge regarding the history of the region. In retrospect that day made me reconsider my own approach to photography, why I love photography and what I want to do with my camera. Finding Greg turned out to be some kind of serendipity and I can  highly recommend going on a tour with him!
