Info

Brazilian street photographer based in Rio de Janeiro. Internationally exhibited and awarded. Photo walk leader and curator, helping photographers experience the city beyond its landmarks.

Marcia Celjar is a Brazilian street photographer based in Rio de Janeiro whose work explores the quiet poetry of everyday life. Drawn to spontaneous gestures, layered scenes, and the subtle relationships between people, light, and space, she creates candid photographs that reveal the extraordinary within ordinary moments. Rather than documenting places, her photography seeks to capture atmosphere, emotion, and the fleeting connections that unfold naturally in the streets. Whether working in Brazil or abroad, she is guided by curiosity, patience, and a deep appreciation for authentic human presence. Since 2017, her work has been exhibited and recognized in international festivals, exhibitions, and awards in Brazil, Mexico, Portugal, Italy, Jordan, and France, including the Paris Street Photo Awards, Lisbon Street Photo Fest, and Rome Photo Lab. She also collaborates with international street photography communities, curates online features, and leads photo walks encouraging photographers to slow down, observe more deeply, and develop their own visual voice.

Street Photography Experience in Rio

A wonderful experience! We went on an inspiring photo walk with Marcia. We started very early in the morning and she took us to some sensational spots along Rio’s city beaches that exude a unique sunrise atmosphere. Marcia showed us lots of beautiful, authentic corners of Rio de Janeiro and knew exactly when and where the light would be at its best. Her open, positive personality made us feel right at home straight away. A brilliant street photographer with a real passion for her work – highly recommended for anyone who wants to experience Rio through the lens.

Street Photography Experience in Rio

Marcia is the most energetic photographer I've ever met. He knows the area, its people and the local dynamics perfectly. His enthusiasm is totally contagious. Thanks to his guide, I discovered an authentic Rio de Janeiro that I would never have found on my own. An unbeatable street photography experience !
