My sister and I had been looking forward for months for our day out with Sophie from Better Paris Photos. The day came, two metros to meet at Anvers - weather started to get cold and wet. Then we saw the happy, smiling face of Sophie! Off on our half day of Montmartre up and down steps (we counted about... More

Thank you for sharing your impressions of our day together. It was good to see you progress along the day and become more confident with your camera, to see you take your time and be more selective with your composition. Continue to practice. Next time, we'll ask for less wind! More

If you love to travel AND take pictures of the places you visit, but perhaps at times are disappointed with the results in capturing those memories, I can highly recommend participating in one of Better Paris Photos workshops. Not only will you learn some helpful composition tips but also will become a master in command of your DSLR in just... More

I was lucky to be part of the 3-day workshop with the perfect tutors - Sophie & Manon - and the perfect students. It was my first visit to Paris, and I wanted to take shots of the lovely city without the disappointment of not using my camera as it should be used, and having the beauty I see captured... More

Just came back from the 3 day photo workshop run by Sophie and Manon. Everything about it was spectacular. Everyday we explored at least 2 different neighborhoods including the Louvre and Place de Concorde for night photography. I had been using my camera on the auto mode before the workshop but not now! I learned so much. They made it... More

We scheduled a night tour, focusing on the Eiffel Tower. We met with Manon on the Pont Alexandre III bridge just after 8pm. (Sunset was around 8:45.) It had rained ALL day, and we were worried about how the evening would turn out. But, luck was on our side, and the clouds broke a couple of hours before we met.... More

Thank you for sharing your comments. We are glad you enjoyed your experience with Manon despite the difficult weather this Spring. Yes, who needs filters and software when you can create a start effect within the camera!! We'll be happy to meet you again next time you are in Paris. More

My wife and I booked a full day tour as well as an evening tour for night photography. We got Elena as our tour guide and she was excellent. My wife is a rank novice and is a dedicated "point and shoot" photographer. Elena was very patient in teaching her the basics in photography and how to use her camera... More

We spent a morning with Manon around the Montmartre area then the evening around the Louvre and Pont de Arts. We are experienced photographers and Manon adapted the tour to find the locations we would not have found by ourselves! Although this is a tour for any level of photographer and you will receive hints and tips on how to... More
