Never been to a photowalk before?
Think of it as a relaxed community meetup where film photographers get together to shoot film, geek out about gear, and connect. You’ll meet fellow film enthusiasts, share stories, and celebrate the PNW film community while exploring Seattle’s waterfront with our Film Crew and event partners: Pentax & Ilford. Along the way, we’ll mingle, stop at landmarks, and take plenty of photos.
