Upcoming: July Travel Photography Classes & Photowalks

Fujifilm is presenting a number of summer seminars on travel lenses and travel photography across America. They’ve asked me to lead two of them: one in Austin, Texas, on July 8th, and one in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, on July 25th. If you live in or near those two cities, mark your calendars now and be sure join in on the fun.

The Austin class and photowalk will be at Precision Camera & Video, located at 2438 W. Anderson Lane, on Wednesday, July 8th. The class will begin at 5 pm, afterwards—about 6:30 pm—we will head over to the Austin Public Library to walk around downtown with our cameras. The fee is $5, and you do need to register (click here). It’s going to be a great time of learning, community, and photography. If you live anywhere near central Texas, I hope to see you there!

Later in the month, on July 25th, I’ll be at Bedford Camera & Video in Oklahoma City. The full details are still being worked out, but it should be along the lines of an afternoon class followed by a photowalk. As soon as it’s all finalized, I’ll get the details out to you. If you live in or near Oklahoma City, be sure to check back periodically so that you don’t miss out.

I don’t have details on the other locations, so if you live outside of Texas and Oklahoma, check with your local camera stores to see if they have any events going on. It’s possible that they are hosting one of these summer seminars, and, if so, you’ll want to join in on it. If you live in Austin or Oklahoma City, I hope to see you this July!

Free Fuji X Weekly Photowalks Coming Soon!

Golden Architecture – San Diego, CA – Fujifilm X-T5 – Emulsion ’86 Recipe

Join me on a free Film Simulation Summer Photowalk!

I’ll be in four different cities—Denver, San Diego, Nashville, and Philadelphia—in August, which means these will come up fast. The photowalks will be jointly hosted by myself and another photographer, as well as a local camera store, and is sponsored by Fujifilm. It takes a lot of collaboration for these to happen, but I think that only makes them better.

This isn’t the official announcement. I’m hoping that I can give you all of the details by the end of the week; however, August is right around the corner, and I want to start getting the word out so that those who may wish to attend have a chance to make plans. Look for the official announcement by this coming weekend, or maybe early next week at the latest. I’ll spread the word as best as I can on social media once everything has been set, but definitely check back if you haven’t seen anything by early next week.

Above: Some pictures from a recent photowalk that I cohosted in Scottsdale, Arizona.

For now, just know that I’ll be in Denver, San Diego, Nashville, and Philadelphia soon. Denver will be on Saturday, August 3rd (time and location TBD). San Diego is tentatively scheduled for August 9th (time and location TBD). Nashville and Philadelphia will be shortly thereafter. Again, once I have all of the details finalized, I’ll let you know. Hopefully this is enough information that those in Denver and San Diego can begin making initial plans to attend, and those in Nashville and Philadelphia can begin looking forward to it.

We’re going to have so much fun! It will be an opportunity to meet fellow Fujifilm photographers, try out X and GFX gear, learn more about Fujifilm’s Film Simulations, put Recipes to work, and more. You won’t want to miss it!

The best part for me will be meeting you all. If you live in or near any of these four cities, I hope that you’ll be able to join us. I look forward to chatting and photographing with you in person in August!
