Join couples’ photographer Liviu Mihoc for a relaxed 90-minute private photo walk through central Hamburg.

“Liviu was a great guide and gave us a beautiful photo session. Since we chose springtime, the weather in Hamburg was quite mixed, but Liviu took great care of all the logistics regarding the weather. He kept in touch with us constantly and was always open to rescheduling in case of bad conditions. Although we already live in Hamburg, we discovered new spots with Liviu that we had never seen before. This is a great activity both for visitors and for locals who want to explore new places in Hamburg.”
