FotoWalk image taken during a September event in Tulsa, OK

Welcome to 2020 and we hope you are getting all in FOCUS this year. The weather has been unseasonably warm for winter and we are hoping it holds out all the way to summer. It’s time to get outside, network and shoot something.

Starting off our Fotowalk series in Tulsa, Oklahoma is very fitting since the downtown area is so diverse, it lends itself to so many opportunities for a great shot. And many times, you just need a reason to go there and why not bring along some friends.

We are going to try something a little different this trip and we might call it a “Sit & Shoot” since we are not going to plan a route around the city landmarks, but choose a cool place and use that as the base of operation. If you feel like exploring more of the area, you are welcome to travel on your own or maybe with a newly discovered friend.

Big shout-out to our resident photo-nurse, Karen Hays, for the idea of bringing a couch to the Fotowalk. She will be providing a black velvet settee transported by the Wild Bison man himself, Ken Martin. We will need some strong men to lift it from the truck and place it for the shoot. That’s where Robert Lake comes in handy along with helping with some bottled water for attendees. Robert, Bedford Camera & Video manager, will be on-site to help with camera questions and local folklore. I would advise you to stop by the store before 6 pm (closing time) to pick up any last-minute gear tips or equipment.

We will have 3-4 models to choose from for your couch shoot and will be sharing their information closer to the date.

The main character for our “Sit & Shoot” is the Richmond Settee from LA Vintage.
