Photo Walk Description

This year’s Photo Walk will be Scott Kelby’s 4th annual walk, and our 3rd year to act as Photo Walk Leaders. For the last two years we have led walks on the Waterway in The Woodlands. And although these walks were very well attended, and a lot of fun, we decided to change locations this year and lead a walk in Historic Downtown Strand District in Galveston.
Much of the architecture in this area is unique and there are plenty of distinctive photo opportunities. We will start the walk at 9:00 am, taking advantage of the morning light, but still giving time for those who will be driving down to the island from Houston. The walk has also been scheduled in the Fall instead of the summer, therefore heat should be much less of a problem.
We will provide a map of our walk route when we meet on the day of the walk. And once we confirm our post walk meeting place, we will post the location on this page.

  • Meeting Place After the Walk

    We will be meeting after our walk at the Fisherman’s Wharf at 2200 Harborside Drive. We have reserved tables right down by the water. It will be a good place to talk, look at our photos, and get something to eat.

    I am a member/novice photowalker of the Houston Photowalk, I would like to join your group for the Worldwide Photowalk excursion. Please let me know if there is room for me. Will this be the 1st of October? Thanks Shirley J.

    This will be my first Photowalk. I heard great things about your Woodlands walk last year and saw some terrific images that came from it. I am really looking forward to joining you in Galveston this fall.

    • John D. Lively says:

      Well I like to think that we had a good time at both of our Woodlands Photo Walks. We are looking forward to meeting you and have you join the walk.

    This will be my first photowalk and I am really looking forward to it…hopefully it will have cooled off some by then…

  4. John D. Lively says:

    I think you will enjoy the walk. I too hope it will have cooled off, but we have spent alot of time down on the Island this Summer. And believe it or not, it never seems as hot on the Island as it does on the mainalnd.

  6. Dawn Hays says:

  7. Dawn Hays says:
