Zim was the friendly, professional and an outstanding tour guide for the photographic safari at the Work Trade Center. She knew about my camera, the best places and techniques to outstanding pictures of the Oculus and World Trade Center Fountain. She is also knowledgeable about the reconstruction of the World Trade Center post 911. You will not be disappointed when you take a photo tour with Zim.

I have done photo safaris with Zim before ...she is outstanding!!! Zim is very familiar with a wide range of cameras and is expert in her knowledge of photographic technique. If you go on a photo safari tour with her, she will have already been there and scouted out the best places to shoot!
