Picture a casual photography event where photographers gather, usually in a downtown area or trendy part of town. They walk around, take photos, enjoy each other’s company, and support a good cause. After the walk, participants can enter their best photo into a friendly contest.
Mark your calendars for Saturday, October 5, 2024, as we gear up for this year’s event! Anticipation is building for another fantastic fall gathering, and we’re eagerly awaiting the stunning snapshots you’ll capture from your corner of the globe. Do remember that the exact timing of each city walk will be determined by the walk leader, who will consider factors such as local venue opening hours and the nature of the walk they aim to create.
Absolutely not! Participation is completely free! Although, please be aware that certain walks might occur in venues like zoos or parks that have their own entrance fees. Additionally, we’re always open to donations to assist the Springs of Hope Orphanage in Kenya. Every cent of your contribution directly impacts the incredible young lives at the orphanage.

We are so thankful for those of you that take the initiative to lead a walk! This event would not be the success that it is without the volunteers who organize and scout locations for the walkers.

We do suggest that before you start a walk you double check to make sure that you are choosing either a different time of day or location as any existing walks. This will prevent any competition between walks and give our walkers a variety of options.
Simply click on the “Find a Walk” tab in the navigation bar at the top of the page.
