Why choose trash the dress session in São Paulo?
Every Sunday from 9:00 to 16:00 the city closes Avenida Paulista to cars, and the most photographed avenue in São Paulo becomes a walkable set for a few hours. That is what decides how a session is planned here: the photographer you work with lives in São Paulo and works across São Paulo all year, so they are not seeing the place for the first time alongside you. That prior knowledge is the difference between a session that keeps to its schedule and one spent looking for a frame.
The hour matters more than the location. For Parque Ibirapuera, the window to aim for is weekday mornings, before the running groups and school visits. The session runs 2 hours and is built around that window rather than around your diary — it is the one variable that genuinely changes the photographs, and it costs nothing.
What does the session in São Paulo look like?
The typical session runs 2 hours across two locations: we start at Parque Ibirapuera and move on to Avenida Paulista and the MASP open span. Two locations rather than one give you two distinct backdrops, and the move between them produces the frames made in motion — frequently the truest of the set.
