Why this photo walk is memorable
Most travelers leave Buenos Aires with hundreds of photos of buildings and almost none of themselves. A photo walk turns that around: you spend 45 minutes in one of the city's most photogenic neighborhoods with a professional who knows where the light falls, and you come away with portraits that actually look like your trip.
It is also a quietly good way to see a neighborhood. You walk at a slow pace, stop where a local photographer would stop and notice doorways, cafes and street corners you would otherwise pass.
What happens on the walk
The session is a guided walk with a camera rather than a studio shoot. Israel mixes posed portraits with candid moments as you move, and gives you simple, natural posing guidance so you do not have to know what to do with your hands.
Who it is for
The walk suits solo travelers who want photos of themselves without asking strangers, and friends who want shared pictures of the trip. Couples can book Israel's separate couples' photography session instead.
Before you book
The meeting point, the neighborhood for your date, what is included and the current price are all set on the Airbnb listing, and they can change. Check the listing before you plan your day around the walk, and message the host there with any questions.
What you get
- Professional portraits taken during the walk
