Novice photographer visits Rome - My husband and I had a great day shooting photos with Emanuele. It was awesome learning perspective from a professional urban landscape photographer. He was patient and informative and knew all the scenic gems of the city! We would love to go out with Emanuele again the next time we visit Rome.

Learn a lot while shooting with a great guide in an amazing city. - Emanuele was excellent. Took time to understand the level I was on then work with me to learn my camera and have me look at photography from a different perspective. He provided some amazing spots to take pictures of sites around the city (including a secret place to get an amazing shot of Trevi fountain!) My non photographer wife tagged along and was really impressed with how much I learned in a short time.

Roma as I have never seen it before. - To start with I am a visually impaired photographer. I am not able to see the 'Big Picture" (Pun Intended) when shooting. I did not inform my guide Emanuele from Aperture Tours about my disability, because I did not want it to color his guidance. That being said, my experience was fantastic. I text Emanuele that I did not want to just shoot general 'Tourist" shots and that I wanted to document the street life of Roma. Emanuele was so educated and Roma as well as the exact times of the evening to shoot different areas and take advantage of the sunlight as well as the lit up architectural gems of the city. He took me on streets what I would never have found on my own. He offered patience and visual guidance and it was great to work with a peer. Next time in Rome I will reach out to Emanuele from Aperture Tours another adventure.

Want to do something fun and to learn new skills doing it!!! - What an experience. Meeting Emmanuele for our photo class was a great experience. He showed us some great vantage points to take photos and our group were novice photographers and he was patient and knowledgeable! The pictures we were taking from the beginning of the tour to the end were remarkably improved. Emanuele shared his approach to taking great photos amongst the amazing back drops around Rome. The three hours flew bye and we were wishing we could have done more. Suggest taking this on the front end of your visit to capture better pictures throughout your stay. Our group was applying the techniques we learned the balance of our trip. Well worth taking this tour!

Exceptional experience!! - I've been on many professional photo tours around the world and this one was by far the best. My professional (Emanuel) was excellent at finding the perfect locations at the perfect times, and my photos are truly exceptional!! I can't wait to print them. Several are so good I will hang them in my home. Thank you!!!

Great experience - This is the second time I book a guided tour with Emanuele. I had enjoyed it so much the first time that, returning to Rome, the first thing I booked was this tour. This time it was the Rome circuit at sunrise. And it was great. Emanuele always gives good advice and takes you to the right places to catch Rome when he wakes up. It also recommends other places for the rest of your stay. An experience to live!

Excellent 2 Sessions with Emanuele - I recently did two photo excursions with Emanuele in Rome. In the first session we did Rome after dark and in the second we did some pre-dawn/sunrise photography. Both sessions were great, providing not only more interesting lighting conditions but also entirely different perspectives on Rome and its monuments from those in the travel photos you can get taken midday with all the crowds. Emanuele came prepared with specific suggestions on shooting locations for a variety of subjects and overall guidance on framing, lighting and settings on how to make the photos really standout. I was here on a family trip and the shots I got with Emanuele far exceeded anything I could get walking around Rome’s crowded monuments with my family. At the same time, I picked up a lot of helpful tips that will enhance my photography in other locations going forward. As an American, I appreciated Emanuele’s fluent English (as unfortunately my Italian is extremely limited). He was a pleasure to spend a couple of hours with each day and I would highly recommend him to anyone hobbyist seeking to enhance the photos they get while in Rome as well as their travel photo capabilities generally.

Excellent Photography Tour in Rome! - Booking a one on one photography walking tour with Emanuele from Aperture Tours was the best! He not only helped me get some great shots, from the best locations; he also gave me some excellent advice on camera settings and street photography composition. As I only had one day in Rome this was simply the best way to see and photograph some of the most spectacular sites in Rome. I was also very grateful that Emanuele helped me get to the Metro (to get back to the station for my return trip to Naples) and he then waited to make sure I got my ticket. Emanuele is an excellent photographer and patient teacher who knows his stuff and knows the city. Highly recommend this photography walking tour with Emanuel.

Visit Rome with a course and photo spots as a bonus. WoW Emanuelle perfect - What a wonderful morning you had. With Emanuelle. Very kind as a friend. He showed me his favorite spots, a lot of stuff in the photo. He would look at my photos and say how to improve them. Exactly the kind of tour I was looking for. Emanuelle is very generous with her time and knowledge and is pleasant company.

Enjoyable experience with Emanuele - My family tagged along as Emanuele was conducting the photography session with my husband. He was very patient with my hudband, showing him different functions of the camera and guided him to take the best shots. We enjoyed ourselves. He showed us some very beatiful locations, including hidden gems, within Rome, and even took some excellent picutres of us. We would highly recommend this experience to enjoy Rome.
