Emma G Photo Walks bring photographers and models together for relaxed, professionally organised shoots around Cairns.
Whether you’ve just picked up your first camera or you’ve been shooting for years, you’re welcome to join.
Experiment with new ideas, photograph professional models, create fresh portfolio work and meet other photographers and creatives in Far North Queensland.
Emma will be there throughout the session to offer direction, answer questions and help when you need it — without turning the afternoon into a classroom.

Meet Emma.
Photographer, mentor and the person behind Emma G Photography.
Emma created the Cairns Photo Walks to make photographing people more accessible, bring creatives together and build an active photography community in Far North Queensland.
During each walk, Emma organises the locations, models and creative flow so you can concentrate on the part that matters: making photographs.
