For the past several weeks I’ve been working to organize a local photo walk as part of Scott Kelby’s 3rd Annual Worldwide Photo Walk. Last Saturday was the big day and we had an amazing turnout of 20 photographers! It was a great outing and I had a lot of fun meeting other photographers in the area. I use the word “area” loosely because many participants traveled some distance to attend. I believe a few folks even drove upwards of 2 hours specifically for this event – I couldn’t be more grateful for that.

It was sweltering… with a heat index over 100 by our 9AM start if I had to venture a guess. I spent a lot of time trying to talk with other photographers, making sure folks had a bottle of water and they were finding shade if they needed it. It was a tough challenge because the group scattered much more quickly than I had anticipated. This was definitely a group that liked to engaged in their photography! I only managed to click off about 100 frames in two hours. I’m posting a few of my favorites today and would love to hear your thoughts.

Outside of the Worldwide event, I’ll be planning these walks 2 or 3 times a year here on the Outer Banks. If you’re interested, keep an eye out on obxphotowalk.com for the next event!
