Lisbon Street Photography Photowalks

3 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English

Most photo walks focus on postcard views or preset stops. This experience is different. Led by Jaki, a working photographer and co-founder of the Lisbon Street Photo Fest, it focuses on how to see rather than where to go. The walk blends teaching and exploration, moving through areas chosen for their light, texture, and atmosphere. You’ll learn how to read a scene, notice timing and rhythm, and photograph with intention instead of impulse. The group stays small so everyone receives personal guidance, no matter what camera they use. By the end, you’ll understand how photographers approach a city and how to translate what you see into meaningful images.

What's Included

We'll stop along the way for a coffee at a local joint and I'm happy to buy you a coffee or water.

Meeting and pickup

Meeting point

Meeting location will depend on the walk. Fábrica Coffee Roasters by Praça do Comércio will work for most walks. Otherwise please use WhatsApp and we can discuss an alternative meeting location.

End point
This activity ends back at the meeting point.

What to expect

See Lisbon through the eyes of a local photographer on this three-hour small-group walk. Instead of rushing between landmarks, you’ll slow down and explore how light, rhythm, and daily life shape the feel of the city. Move through neighborhoods like Alfama, Mouraria, Bairro Alto, or Cais do Sodré while learning how to frame strong images and capture real moments as they unfold. Your guide, Jaki, is a Lisbon-based photographer and co-founder of the Lisbon Street Photo Fest. He shares a working photographer’s approach to observation, timing, and composition, helping you understand how to see what most visitors miss. Whether you use a phone or a camera, you’ll finish with a new way of seeing Lisbon and a better sense of how to photograph any city you visit.
