Les contrastes d'Athènes

They say beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. But some places are really awful. Want to see a different side of Athens? You’re in the right place! You will find a contrasting city, with a totally different cultural and social character, and another topography. Bustling places where tourists and immigrants, street vendors, and passers-by bump into each other, passing through it in a rush. This mix of cultural diversity and mirror of social “disorder”. Ungentrified and lively, the oldest limb of the modern metropolis—an area where no-frills Greek classics sit next to ethnic eats, 60s office blocks, and old printing presses. Not Athens’ prettiest face. Godforsaken places and a lot of urban decay: awful can be awesome. Dare to see it. Discover one of the most controversial and offbeat areas of Athens – only for true explorers. Please note that this experience may not be suitable for those who are easily overwhelmed. While no harm will come to you during the walk, it is important to understand the nature of the experience. Feel free to contact me to arrange a date and time that suits you best. Furthermore, if you're interested in my other offerings, such as Athens Social and Political Walk, don't hesitate to let me know. Please let me know before booking if you would like this experience in Spanish so that I can confirm availability for you.

Créez des bijoux en argent

Think of your own idea and we will create it together, we can make either a ring, necklace, bracelet, pair of earrings or a small piece of art. We can even add a stone and do stonesetting. Your idea/design should have the size of about 3x3cm or 1,180x 1,180 inch , weighting approx. 4.5 gram. If you wish to have a heavier piece I can advice you and negotiate it at the workshop (an extra gram equals to 1euro). Except of silver we can also use bronze and cooper, as these metals add colour to some particular ideas. Try to keep your idea simple and in 2 dimensions, so we can accomplish it in about 3 hours. If you are not so sure about what to create, you can choose any of my designs, or I can advice you. At first we will make a sketch and after we will transfer the design on the metal and cut it out with the saw. Then we will smoothen up the metal's surface with emery paper and at last we will polish it to shine it up. The piece is yours and you can call it "My Athenian keepsake" or "My unforgettable time in Athens". Making your own keepsake will give you the chance to learn in real the technical steps of it's creation.

The experience is ALWAYS private! Add the number of guests and see the total! Let’s be honest—there are plenty of photographers in Athens. But here’s why I’m different: *Your Story, Your Moments: No generic poses or forced smiles. I interact with you, study your vibe, and help you live in the moment. The result? Frames that look like scenes from a movie—authentic, emotional, and uniquely you. *More Than Promised, Every Time: While others deliver a limited number of shots, I give you ALL the good frames (70+) beautifully edited. You’ll get a sneak peek within 24 hours and the full gallery in 3-4 days. And yes, I always deliver MORE! *Tailored to Perfection: Your photoshoot isn’t a one-size-fits-all. I customize everything—the route, the lighting, the mood—to match your personality, the color of your outfits, and even the season. *A Fun, Stress-Free Experience: Even your kids and husband will enjoy this! I guide you through the entire process, making it relaxed, fun, and unforgettable. No awkward posing, just genuine moments and laughter. *For Those Who Value Artistry: This isn’t about finding the cheapest option—it’s about investing in quality, creativity, and a one-of-a-kind experience. But let my work speak for itself @natalie_in_athens So, are you ready to fall in love with Athens and take home memories that feel like a movie? Let’s go shoot some!;)
