Really enjoyable walk around York. Paula is really knowledgeable and friendly and helped me to explore aspects of Yorks history and architecture that I might not otherwise have done by myself. Highly recommended

I really enjoyed my photo walk with Paula. She is very professional and explained everything very clearly, giving examples as we walked around. The 3 hours flew by! I only have a compact camera, but I learned a lot about composition, perspective etc. I hope to put the hints and tips she gave me to good use in the future. Very glad I booked the walk and would definitely do it again.

I mainly do wildlife photography but wanted to try more urban photography, so I booked a photowalk with Paula Duck on new years eve 2021. Paula showed me around parts of the old city of York and gave me helpful advice on composition and how to approach urban / street photography. We ended in the Museum garden where the tame fat little squirrels provided great subjects for urban wildlife photography. Unfortunately, it cloudy for much of time so poor lighting for the historic building. I still enjoyed the walk and learnt a lot, and will be back to photography the Minster gargoyles on another sunnier day with my long lens.
