Scott Kelby’s First-ever Worldwide Photo Walk
Scott Kelby showed me the things I thought would take forever to learn could be accomplished with a few keystrokes, vision and a bit of learning. That was all offered in that one seminar — for me. I had the vision, I just did not know what to do with it. That one Photoshop Seminar Tour changed my life forever.

Kelby’s Photo Walk is a fun, social photography event where photographers get together for two hours, usually in a metropolitan area or a trendy section of a city, to walk around, shoot photos, and generally have fun with other photographers. Each Photo Walk has a local assigned leader that chooses the route of the walk and the ending place (a local restaurant, pub or café) where participates will look at each other’s photos from the walk and make new photography friends.
