5th Annual Studio Lighting Photowalk

Wow, has it been five years already?

Again with a repeat of the past four year’s most popular Photowalking Utah event, we will be doing an indoor “Studio Lighting” photowalk. The event will feature eight different studios set up within a large conference room. Participants will be able to walk to each setup photography station and try their hand at shooting. Models will be provided along with assistance from the host photographer at each station.

Again this year we will be working to create a variation in the type of lighting setups provided. This will give the participants a way to work with a large variety of portrait lighting arrangements.

I have arranged with several models to help us out. Just like the previous event, we are suggesting a $4-5 “tip” given that will be put in a pool and divided up among the models after the event. This is purely optional but it really helps to have dedicated models available for the photographers to shoot and this is a great way to compensate them for their time. I’ve got a pretty diverse group confirmed so far including different ages / genders / looks.

For those photographers that aren’t carrying around digital SLR’s, don’t worry. We will have a way to sync point-and-shoot cameras via slave to at least a couple of the setups. Everyone is welcome at these events regardless of skill or equipment. There will even be some higher end gear available to borrow.

Here are the details:

Date: Saturday February 25th
Time: 10:00 am – 1:00 pm
Location: Gateway Community Church, 584 E 12300 South – Draper
Cost: Free (though a suggested model tip of $4-5 is appreciated)

If you’re planning on attending, please drop an RSVP into the event announcement on the Photowalking Utah Facebook Group (link).

Cheers!

January 21: Photowalking the Leonardo

By Ann Torrence

The typical January weather forecast for Northern Utah is cold. Really cold. Like no fun photographing outdoors cold. Out of respect for January’s chilly weather, Photowalking Utah likes to play indoors.

Join us this month at Utah’s newest cool (yes, pun intended) place to hang out, The Leonardo - a science/tech/art museum located in Salt Lake City. Get your inner geek on and come make art out of science.

Details:

Who: Anyone is welcome. Photographers are encouraged to bring their family
When: Saturday, January 21 – 11:00 am
Where: The Leonardo – 209 E 500 South, Salt Lake City

The great people at the museum have extended a discount to Photowalking Utah. The admission cost will be $7.00 instead of the usual $14.00. To receive this price, you must enter with the group at 11:00 am (come early).

Tripods are perfectly acceptable, but please be mindful of those around you if you will be using one.

As always, this event is open to photographers of ANY skill level and with any type of camera. Head on over to the Photowalking Utah Facebook Group if you have any questions or would simply like to say that you are coming.

We hope to see a great group on the 21st.

Here’s a little bit different view of yesterday’s boot photo. It’s amazing what a difference a little perspective change can make :)

Newspaper article: Photowalking Utah

Today’s edition of the Salt Lake Tribune features a very nice article on our local photography group Photowalking Utah. Big thanks to Trib reporter Glen Warchol for taking the time to track us down and put it together. Gotta love the pic of Leah that they used :)
