Proposal photoshoots We had the absolute pleasure of getting our photographs taken by Andy and it turned into one of the most unforgettable experiences of our lives. I planned to propose to my (now) fiancée and Andy not only helped coordinate the moment beautifully, but he also captured it perfectly through his lens.

The photos he took of our proposal are absolutely stunning — natural, emotional, and beautifully composed. We couldn’t be happier with how they turned out. Andy’s warm personality, professionalism, and deep knowledge of Brugge made the whole experience both fun and inspiring, even beyond the proposal.

Thank you again, Andy — we’ll treasure these photos forever!

Two years of planning a surprise family reunion including setting up a photo memory for my almost 84 yearold big brother and my determination for the family to all come to Bruges and salute the guy who continues to suffer from diminshing health and near blindness. Nothing better to offer than photo memories in a city we all love. Days prior to the planned event, bro was placed in a remote French hospital from his nearby Seine riverboat tour due to a lung infection. . Sadly we had to cancel all planned activites and hope for a refund , knowing the set program was non refundable. The amazing kindness of this company to understand our grief and pain was awesome. I can not thank them enough for making a big exception and also made a vow to tell everyone to hire them when travel takes them into this beautiful location. In this time, it was a relief to hear that Andy made the exception . The world is better for understanding people as this. Thank you Andy!I am a Virtuoso travel advisor and so willingly recommend a good human as you are. Ken Sause, CTC Wallingford, CT USA

Andy was great both in terms of accommodating our needs on very short notice and taking amazing photos. He’s very skilled whether you want him to shoot you or teach you how to shoot someone else or something else, he’s the man!

One of the best tours I’ve ever had. The local Canadian Andy provided tiny little insights into the history of Brugge. The best part was of course learning how to get most out of your pictures. Either with a modern camera, a 20-year old DSLR or even your iPhone. Even our kids (13 and 10 y old) were eager to learn from Andy how to make better photographs. Additionally, Andy had very good tips on hardware and software for photography. Well done and thank you very much!

Photo tour : Hidden Brugge April 2025 I took the "Hidden Brugge" tour and was very informative.
Andy definitely knew his photography and local history of Brugge.
He had good examples on his ipad and gave good suggestions and critique of pictures immediately taken.

Thank you, Andy! My fiancé arranged for Andy to photograph our engagement. It was just incredible to capture such a special moment in such an auhentic way. We will treasure these photos for ever. <3

Best Photo Tour!! Don’t miss it! Andy was our guide and he was amazing! You will learn so much and have a very enjoyable walk through parts of the old city, over bridges, and through the streets of Brugge. Can’t recommend this enough. Make sure to ask for Andy McSweeney! You will leave a better amateur photographer than when you started, all within 2 hours. Best excursion! Enjoy!

Andy did a proposal shoot for me and my partner and he was brilliant! Photos turned out great!

Andy was the perfect person to help us capture memories in a beautiful city. The pictures we received stayed true to the style shown in his portfolio. Best of all, Andy was so nice and easy to spend time with. Neither of us are very comfortable in front of the camera but it was easy with Andy behind the camera. I can't recommend Andy enough!

I had a proposal photoshoot with Andy, and it went great. He was very helpful in such a stressful moment, and he gave very useful and practical advice on the location for the proposal, and we could quickly organize a scenario for the surprise moment. He could fit several nice spots in a one-hour photoshooting session, with many nice photos. We received great energy from Andy, he made us feel comfortable from the beginning, and we enjoyed the whole experience. I strongly recommend Andy as a great photographer under cover for mariage proposals :)

I recently booked Andy to photograph our engagement in Bruges and I couldn't be more happy with the whole experience. Not only did Andy spend time helping me figure out the exact right location and timing but the pictures he took are remarkable! We are really happy with all of them. It is clear that he is not only good at his craft, he has a lot of experience knowing exactly all the right spots to shoot in Bruges. He and his wife knew how to go unnoticed while covertly recording the whole event. I recommend Andy and Photo Tour Brugge without any reservation. You'll be happy you trusted your special day to him!

We went for the tour as a family with our 11 year old. Andy was excellent and ensured we had brilliant tips on technique, edits, framing and location. He engaged our kid well with enthusiasm and feedback. It was a good photo walk and almost felt like a 2 hour walk around Brugge with a photo friend ! Thanks Andy and wish you and family the best.

Nachdem ich Sommer 2024 schon eine Fototour mit Andy unternommen hatte und von ihm den Tipp bekommen habe, Brügge zur Weihnachtszeit zu besuchen, habe ich das gerne getan. Zum Hochzeitstag waren wir im weihnachtlichen Brügge und ich habe diesmal ein Romantic Couple Shooting bei Andy gebucht und seiner bezaubernden Katie als Assistenz an dem Abend. Es sind wundervolle Fotos entstanden und Erinnerungen für immer! Andy ist immer fröhlich, lustig und wir hatten so eine gute und entspannte Zeit mit den Beiden, das sieht man auch auf den Fotos. Wir möchten Andy sowohl als Fotograf für Shootings in Brügge, als auch die Photo Tour empfehlen! Man lernt sehr viel über Brügge, sieht Plätze die man allein vielleicht nicht entdeckt hätte und eine gute Zeit ist immer garantiert! Danke Andy und Katie!

Foi uma extraordinária experiência estas 2 horas com o Andy. Grande fotógrafo, grande conhecedor de Brugges e da sua história. Depois desta experiência passamos realmente a conhecer a extraordinária cidade de Brugges. Obrigado Andy!

"Shades of Brugge" Photo Tour with Andy McSweeney was just brilliant. My only request is that I had not done a night photo like this earlier so photography would have been better from the start of our European holiday. I went on the tour in the hope of learning at least one new tip and be taken to something perfect photo spots in Bruges. Andy provided lots of guidance and tips during the trip that I will take forward in my photography journey. Also, the locations taken were just awesome with a couple hidden gems. Would highly recommend connecting with Andy if you are in Bruges for a photo tour you will not be disappointed. Thanks, Andy, for a great tour.

We spent a wonderful morning touring beautiful Bruges with Andy. He gave us a lot of information about Bruges, it's history and the way of life for the locals. He showed us a good cross-section of the city, from the canals, to architecture, to some quiet streets with little details that I would not have noticed As two enthusiastic photographers he spent time encouraging us to try some different compositions and spending time showing us some tips and tricks. Andy has real passion and energy for his work and it shows. I would really recommend a tour with Andy.

Op een koude novembermiddag en avond genoten van de bijzondere rondleiding en wandelvierdaagse fotografie. Je ziet Brugge op een andere en intensere manier. Anders kijken naar gebouwen en op andere manier je foto’s maken. Deze combi van rondleiding en fotografie cursus viel in goede aarde bij ons hele gezelschap, van jong tot oud! Ook mede omdat Andy het met zijn humor, enthousiasme en betrokkenheid het tot een compleet feest maakte! Ik raad deze tour van harte aan! Jef van Wingerden

I randomly stumbled upon this tour while on another tour, looked it up, saw he allows you to take a +1 and off we went. I had a great time wandering through Bruges with Andy. Nice shooting locations and good tips for fine tuning some shots. It was nice to see all the options for shots that you can have at a location. And there was some history, tips for maintaining a relation with your partner while being a photographer and some light Comedy thrown in.

I was fortunate to spend a few hours with Andy checking out some of the less-visited places in Bruge a couple of days ago. What I valued most was learning how to make the most of a photo shoot location from all aspects, as well as technical tips and cool history facts. If you like taking photos and wish to see Bruge and improve your street photo technique, I would highly recommend this tour.
