Photowalks in São Paulo
Hi, I'm Filipe!
It is hard to know where to find photowalks. I will make your life easier.
Just choose your group and have fun!
FotoJornada
Coordinated by André Douek, as far as I know, it is the oldest group in São Paulo because their photowalks happen for over 20 years. The group already had other names throughout its history, beginning with Caminhada Fotográfica and later Jornada Fotográfica. You can learn more about the history of the group, support it, and get extra rewards (paid) here.

FotoTrilha
Organized by Vera Onishi, as its name suggests, it is a photowalk focused on trails. It occurs in parks in the city of São Paulo, surroundings and even in distant places. The walks usually happen on weekends and last the whole day, as there is a collective picnic at the end of the walk. It is a very friendly and receptive group but usually does not give exposure to their photowalks publicly.

Click a Pé
Coordinated by Mariana Orsi, this is the group that gathers the largest number of people on each photowalk, a few hundred. I'm sure that you will make some new friends :). They also organize exclusive photowalks in places that in order to photograph without them you will need special permissions.
