About This Walk

Join us at Riverwalk Bradenton for a special Worldwide Photo Walk at sunset! The Riverwalk offers everything from sweeping views along the Manatee River to colorful public art, lively green spaces, and the perfect golden-hour glow. Whether you’re snapping photos with your phone or hauling your favorite camera and lenses, this walk is about capturing the beauty of the evening while connecting with fellow photography lovers of all skill levels.

Leading the walk is Joe Nuzzo of Shutter Speak Photography, a Sarasota-based photographer, educator, and Nikon Z specialist. Joe has years of experience photographing everything from concerts and sports to families and intimate weddings, and he’s passionate about helping photographers of all levels grow their skills. You may also know him from his YouTube channel, Shutter Speak where he shares photography tips, gear reviews, and creative inspiration.

After we’ve chased the last bit of light, you’re invited to join us for an optional rooftop dinner at Oak & Stone. It’s the perfect spot to relax, enjoy some great food, and swap stories with other photographers while overlooking the city lights.

To top it all off, we’ll have plenty of fun giveaways—so you might leave with more than just stunning photos and new friends. Bring your curiosity, your creativity, and your appetite, and let’s make this Riverwalk Bradenton photo walk one for the books!

Photowalk Thank You

Thank You for Joining the Photowalk! 🌧️📸

Hi everyone,

A huge thank you to all who braved the weather and came out for the photowalk last night! The skies may not have fully cooperated,
but the energy, creativity, and good company more than made up for it. I had a great time walking, talking, and seeing everyone’s
unique take on the evening.
