About operator:

We run adventurous photo walks around Sydney, allowing photographers of all levels to get more from their phone camera or their traditional DLSRs. Our experienced photo guides know this city well. We visit parts of the city that even the locals don't know about. Our inspiring trails allow you to explore Sydney on foot, with your camera in hand and a professional photographer by your side. Every experience is different: phone photography, camera basics, portrait, street, travel, night or macro photography. We also host free photo events like PhotoWalks (e.g. explore The Rocks in Sydney); PhotoTalks where photographers present their work at our studio in Chippendale, and PhotoReview nights where we deconstruct and critique members' photographs. Visit our website. Thank you, Shane Rozario and the WAO team.
