Bought a day photo tour for my husband as a birthday present, Greg was more than willing to help. My husband loved the tour and he ended up being the only person on the tour which was excellent value for money. Thanks for a great experience and your help Greg!

appreciated Greg's professional wisdom, advice, expertise, patience and knowledge of the hidden gems of Melbourne. He was also willing to go the extra mile and my 3 hour tour with him was one of my highlights of my weekend in Melbourne.

Greg provided a fascinating 3 hour tour exploring parts of the city I'd visited in the previous few days and pointing out how much I'd missed! He gave lots of advice on how to capture shots which evoke the spirit of the city and will be good to look back on as a reminder of our trip. This was combined... More

I strongly recommend this as a photographic experience whatever your level of expertise. I received the tour as a Christmas present from someone who was also able to accompany me on an individual three-hour night tour. It ended with exclusive access to a fabulous view of the city skyline at dusk. Greg responded to my personal brief and delivered.

The old biblical quote, 'I look but I do not see' was so applicable to me. By the end of the tour I started to see things through the lens and photograph them that I would never have envisaged before. Greg showed me how to compose interesting scenes using the existing lines and the rule of thirds. He also challenged... More

This photo tour of Melbourne on a rainy Sunday afternoon was simply awesome! Led by our tutor, Greg Currier, we enjoyed putting into practice new techniques on a range of subject matters, which captured so beautifully the essence of Melbourne that I know and love. Greg really knows his stuff, and communicates it in a friendly and easy-going manner. So... More

He showed me the joy of taking pictures and the excitement of experiencing the environment. I learned a lot of practical techniques from him.....something that I... More

I had a great time with Greg on our photo tour of Melbourne. He has taught me some great techniques for making the most of my images and shown me a side to Melbourne that I would not have found on my own. He was also very understanding that I had hurt my foot on and was therefore a bit... More

I did a morning tour with Greg in February 2012. Having been on quite a few courses and photo holidays I wanted to discover some of the photo gems in Melbourne I may not have otherwise found plus improve my skills. Greg quickly worked out where my room for improvement was and we had a really interesting and thought-provoking few... More

This was a birthday present for my girlfriend who just bought a new DSLR and has been interested in photography for quite some time. Greg, the guide/teacher was really friendly and patient. Because it was a quiet day, we were the only two people on the tour and he really catered it to our tastes and pace. We got to... More
