Street Photography Walks and Talks in Sofia
Description
Discover Sofia through the lens of a working film director. Join Martin — award-winning filmmaker, published photographer, and daily street shooter — for an intimate photography walk through the city's most alive and least-photographed streets. We start at the iconic Hotel Balkan on Sveta Nedelya Square and move through the Area of Tolerance — one of Europe's most quietly remarkable urban spaces, where a Mosque, a Synagogue, and a Cathedral stand within metres of each other. From there we enter the Women's Market (Zhenski Pazar), Sofia's oldest open-air market founded in 1878, teeming with vendors, characters, and the kind of light that turns an ordinary frame into something cinematic. We hunt the raw backstreets surrounding the market, and finish with a shared edit over coffee — included. This is not a sightseeing tour. It's a street photography walk led by someone who shoots these streets every single day. You'll leave with real images, a sharper eye, and a genuine feel for Sofia.

I am a keen amateur photographer and found the experience extremely helpful and at the same time very pleasant and definitely worthwhile and value for money. Martin has a good eye for photography and can give a lot of useful tips as well as locations and situations where one can get great shots. We also sat down twice ,once in the middle of the walk and at the end of the walk for a very helpful feedback of the photos we took that day! I would thoroughly recommend to all visitors and locals alike in Sofia. Great day out and great shots
