I really didn't know what to expect on this tour because Bulgaria is not a popular beer destination. Stella definitely surprised me! It seems that there are cool beer places and hidden breweries that I would not find by myself. Thanks Stella for the unexpected experience!

There is something magical happening when the lights of the city gradually come on and the sun sets behind the horizon. The sometimes overwhelming and imposing building structures from the former socialist times completely changes character as they are lit up in the evening time. As we move through the city in the last light of day and into the night we capture this magic and incorporate the techniques of long exposures and moving objects to create stunning images.

We booked a Localgrapher for a couples shoot in Arizona. The results were okay at best, and we regretted not seeking out an established local in the area. For the price, we received 60 very average choices and the ability to select 35 shots. We couldn’t even find 35 framed correctly. The localgrapher website is also a joke which requires a youtube video to figure out. The UI is terrible and the photos will disappear rapidly so do not wait to download (set aside a couple hours - that’s how bad it is). But really, just avoid. Hire someone directly.

I booked this within 2 hours of the start of the tour on my last day in Belgrade and it was absolutely worth it. My guide was exceptionally knowledgeable and thorough. He even took me to the airport at the end so that I could catch my flight. You know it was a good tour when you feel like you’re leaving the city too soon.
