Photowalking Utah FAQ


What is Photowalking Utah?


Photowalking Utah is a "group of like-minded individuals who get together regularly for photographic fun and learning".


How did Photowalking Utah begin?

Local photographers Bryan Jones, Ann Torrence and Rich Legg organized the first event in October of 2007. The event was modeled after the photowalks organized by photographer Thomas Hawk that had begun earlier in the year in the San Francisco California area.


Who can join?

Photowalking Utah is open to anyone who has an interest in photography. Skill level or type of camera is not a requirement. Anyone from beginner to pro is encouraged to attend.


How much does it cost?

There is no "membership fee" to be a member. The only cost is on certain photowalks the participants will be required to pay an admission fee for the venue we are photographing. Additionally, there is sometimes a suggested "Tip" to compensate models.


Where are the events held?


The photowalks are held in and around Northern Utah. We have had events from as far South as Provo to as far North as Ogden.


How many photographers usually attend?

The average event has around 40-50 participants. We have had events with as many as 120 and as few as 6.


Do I have to come to every event if I am a member?

Members can pick and choose only the events they want to come to. We hope that it will be so much fun though, that you will rarely miss one :)

The first event was held in October of 2007 with six particpants.
