PhotoWalk - Bedford Camera (Tulsa, OK)
It time again to kick in the PhotoWalk series since the weather is warming up and getting so nice outside. I’m sure you are as anxious as I am to get back to a positive social setting of learning, sharing and experimenting. All things perfectly suited to a casual photowalk event.
Bedford Camera and Video (Tulsa) 2nd Thursday Photowalk schedule is back in swing and our first is April 8 2021, 7pm-9pm on the WEST side of the Jenks Pedestrian Bridge. Check out the map below for the red circle camera icon for the meeting place before a short walk to explore the area.
In the “Small Flash - Big Light” series, we will work with the smaller camera fashion strobes and gels to create different dramatic portraits of our models. You are welcome to bring your flash system, I will be featuring the complete line of Westcott FJ Series lights and available to answer any questions. These powerful, rugged battery powered lights have a universal trigger system that will work with almost any camera. If our favorite muse, Shiann, doesn’t make an appearance, I bet the resident Fujifilm photographer and model, Tori, will be happy to set into the light. Either way, it will be a blast and you don’t want to miss the first FotoWalk of the season.
Maybe I will break out some fire as the skylight becomes darker around 8 pm and see what images we can create.
If you have any questions, be sure to stop by and see the folks over at the Bedford Camera & Video store in Tulsa, OK. Be sure to signup and follow the Bedford Camera Meetup Group for other exciting social and educational events.
After the event, I encourage participants to upload and share their images to the Flickr Group created for these events - Bedford Camera Tulsa Photography Group. This make it very easy for the models to get copies of the images taken and a great place for online social interactions.
See you soon!
2021 PhotoCon Fotowalk
Spring is in the air and it’s time for another Bedford Camera & Video PhotoCon Fotowalk!
Welcome to the largest Fotowalk in the state sponsored by the fine folks at FJ Westcott. Come see the full line of lights being used on the Envoy Walks.
The Trawicks and Dorseys have teamed up for another great experience for a Photo/Video route. As a bonus, the sound expert Ryan White from RODE will be on the video walk to answer any questions and demo great microphones for location audio capture.
We all meet at the Aloft Hotel in Bricktown for a 6:30pm start, hit the marked route for fun shooting and then get to the Grand Finale location by 8:00pm for some Steel Fire photo action!
As a special treat this year, the video and grand finale will have a special dance appearance of the
El Grupo Panamerica.
This PhotoWalk is FREE and OPEN to all
photographers and videographers!
Envoy FotoWalk - PhotoCon LIVE 2020
The largest Photowalk in Oklahoma, and possibly the midwest, will happen the night before Bedford Camera & Video PhotoCon and we are trying something different. We are combining talent between the Trawicks and Dorseys with a guest leader, Ryan White from RØDE Microphones.
The Trawicks will lead the STILL FotoWalk and the Dorseys will push through on the VIDEO Fotowalk. Both parties will finish at the Deep Deuce Dog Park for the Grand Finale at 8 pm for a little something special.
Last year’s event was spectacular despite the fridge temperatures and blowing winds. Let’s hope for better weather or bundle up for the “diverse” Oklahoma weather.
We will all meet in front of the Aloft Hotel before taking our routes towards the model shoot stations manned by talent by Vail Models.

MID-AMERICA PHOTOGRAPHY SYMPOSIUM
Teaching a lighting class at Bedford Camera PhotoCon in 2017
CREATIVE KITCHEN PORTRAITS
Photography is all about LIGHT and this workshop is all about the fundamentals of that elusive formula. Robert will stir you up with the FIVE properties of light and how to beat them - including the sun. Then we will sprinkle in the simple way to understand different light meters and why they are always correct, but you don’t like the answer. And top it off with the ONLY difference between natural light and flash that is easy to overcome.
So interesting so far? Hang on… it’s gets crazy about halfway through the program. Robert will LIVE shoot with unique light modifiers found in your kitchen. Yes, YOUR kitchen. You are encouraged to bring whatever kitchen utensil, mixing bowl, pots, pans, plates, cups, appliances, etc. available to be part of this unique portrait. We will use those items to create dramatic lighting, as well, as possible props for the models.
Register now for this fun, casual and information packed program. Bring your enthusiasm, questions, and favorite dance moves. Skeptics and hecklers encouraged to attend with special seating in back of room. Fruit may be provided.
