Hi there! I am a professional photographer based in London. I am passionate about travel and photography. A camera is just a tool, but a very important one. It helps me and motivates me to see the world from a different perspective, to see details that otherwise, I wouldn't see. The photography allowed me to be even more interested in so many things around me. I feel very fortunate to be able to work as a photography guide in London because there are very few cities in the world that can offer so many subjects to photograph from street photography to architectural and abstract. London is known for its peculiar weather and fortunately, this gives us plenty of opportunities to take unique images because there is no bad weather in photography. In my tours, we will learn to take advantage of any situation. I truly love being a photography guide and one of the top reasons is that allows me to meet so many interesting people from all over the world that shares this passion. I am an easy going and open-minded person. I like to interact with people from across the world and to know about their culture, language, travel interests. In my free time, I enjoy outdoor activities of all kinds. Depending on the opportunities I have, in the summer amongst other things, I love to hike, mountain bike and snorkelling. In the winter, I love to snowshoe and watch the northern lights (mostly in Iceland). My tours are very flexible in content and timing and I can adapt easily to your preferences and suggestions. For me, the best reward for guiding guests is the fun I have sharing the beauty of the place. Let me be your photography guide and I will share with you not only my knowledge and expertise but my enthusiasm as well. - I studied photography at Institut d'Estudis Fotogràfics de Catalunya (IEFC) in Barcelona. Also, I've completed various courses and workshops including the one at Magnum Agency in London. - I worked as a travel photographer with the biggest online hotel booking agency - I working as a photographer for the biggest online travel review company - I guided private photography tours in various locations in France and Spain I am not a Blue Badge Guide which means that although I can accompany you inside the London, St. Paul's Cathedral and Westminster Abbey I cannot guide inside these historical monuments.

Overview of your London tour

Visiting the Cotswolds is like going back in time. Set amid rolling hills dotted with grazing sheep and cows, the towns and villages in the Cotswolds are pretty much English perfection. Thatched roof cottages, picture-perfect farmland, crumbling castles, towns made entirely of honey-colored Cotswold stone. During the medieval period, native Cotswold sheep were famous throughout Europe for their heavy fleeces and high quality of wool. Cotswold wool commanded a high price and the wealth generated by the wool trade enabled wealthy traders to leave their mark by building fine houses and wonderful churches, known as "wool churches". Even today, sheep on the hillside is one of the classic Cotswold images. For overseas visitors the Cotswold area is convenient for London and offers what many people portray as typical English countryside with picturesque villages, historic churches and peaceful surroundings.

We had the best day, thanks to Andrei. We would not have been able to experience the Cotswolds on our own and he was so patient with us. He customized the trip to fit our interests and was able to adjust on the fly. Most importantly, he was very personable and has a great sense of humor. We are so happy we had this great day- our hearts are full!

Our tour with Andrei was wonderful. He had nice information to share about the towns and villages that we visited, but also gave us time and space to explore on our own.

We enjoyed our day and learned quite a l a lot about a few of the Cotswold Villages and Bath. Andrei also helped us take some fantastic pictures.
