Great experience. Decided to book Des’ photo walk while on a quick trip to Dublin. The tour was lots of fun and allowed to experience some parts of Dublin I wouldn’t have otherwise experienced. Des is very knowledgeable and shared some techniques and tips while we walked and photographed various sights. I left the experience with a deep gratitude, highly recommend to anyone enjoys (street) photography. 10/10

Des provides a fantastic introduction to street photography. His tour is perfect for beginners like myself, focusing on ideas and composition rather than worrying about the technical aspects of photography. I highly recommend this workshop to anyone interested in photography.

Had a great afternoon with Des, wandering the streets of Dublin. He shared his knowledge of street photography, and encouraged us to think differently so as to capture images that were outside our norm. He provided advice on looking for different angles, and pointing out interesting images. He was also helpful with his tips for exploring Dublin and the outer areas over coffee at the end of the session. Although booked for 1-3, he didn't leave us until around 4.00pm. Recommended.
