Do I need a professional camera?
No. Many photo walks welcome phone photographers. Hosts usually mention any gear needs in the plan. If you are starting out, look for beginner walks or host one yourself and approve people at the same level.

Sign in to GoMate and browse plans nearby. Photo walks show the theme, time and approximate distance. Request to join, and once the host approves you, you can chat with the group about the route.
Can I share photos with the group afterwards?
