So, here is the big announcement:
I Heart Faces is hosting Photo Walks
all around the country on Saturday, June 5.
Angie asked me if I would be a leader in Philadelphia.
I was super nervous and I had to think about it for a few hours.
Or a day.
{Something like that}
In the end, I decided it would be a wonderful thing
to meet photographers from this area.
I contacted some of my super amazing photographer friends,
and with their help,
I know it is going to be a spectacular day.
It is rich with history and detail.
The fantastic children’s toy store, O’Doodles
is going to allow us to use their toys as props
and they are also going to supply
a Cat in the Hat model!
How great is that?
We are also going to be shooting at
Christ Ascension Lutheran Church,
which was built in 1869.
It is stunning.
We are going to have additional models.
A delicious baby,
A sweet 8 year old,
2 high fashion models,
and a Bride!
If you are hoping to portfolio build
this will be a fantastic opportunity.
One thing I know for sure:
We will have fun.
Please sign up!
For just $6.26 you are bound to have a super day of shooting!
Lead Photographer: Lisa Furrey @ the Long Road to China
Detail Photographer: James @ Newtown Area Photo
Support Photographer: Julia @ Catching Memories Photography

Oh...awesome! Congratulations on being asked! For sure they've got the right woman for the job ;D It sounds wonderful, Becky...I really wish I lived closer, so I could join in!!! Looking forward to seeing the wonderful images you all produce :D
Have fun! (and, no...I've never been on a photo walk. I'm pretty sure there's one organized every year in a town close to here. I've gotta remember to look into it!)
This is soooooo exciting - and sounds like your walk is going to be wonderful!! Can't wait!! :)
Oh how I wish I lived closer to you. What an amazing, fun filled day you're going to have. I noticed Lisa is the lead photographer... she's awesome too! Can't wait to see all the fabulous pictures!
gorgeous photos, but then again you already knew that. :)
I've never been on one and I'm not that far away in NJ. Oh my!
SO excited to hear you're leading too!! Isn't this gonna be great!!??
This sounds awesome... I wish I lived near Philadelphia (or any real city) so that I could go.

Hey!!! I'm so excited to go on the walk with you! Thanks for the comments! I'm excited to meet you, as well as share our passion of photography:)
LOL! So I have to be a brat and ask why $6.26? Austin Texas is only $5.00 to go!! :D
LOL! Totally kidding! So why not Boise Idaho! Wouldn't that be soooo cool too! Maybe I will go on a photo walk that day... all by myself... :(
I am so excited for you. This will be so much fun for you. I so wish I could join!!!
This is great!
<><
Awesome! How wonderful.
I just wish to be there...
Never been on a photo walk but it sounds wonderful. Years ago we lived in NJ and took a high speed train into Philadelphia occasionally as that was where my then husband worked. I have always admired the history and beauty of Philadelphia.
I JUST realized that!I have ALREADY emailed My Two Seasons! i had no idea she was from Boise! Small world! Yeah I am so excited! I will look into signing up for sure! Thanks for letting me know
I do photo walks around my house - I am alert to so much more beauty when I have my camera along.
I love these shots - every single one!
I LOVE Chestnut Hill...especially eating outside in the summer (at that exact resturant!)
yay! you'll be a perfect hostess, I just know!
I think these photowalks are going to be a blast! (this will be my first one - nothing like jumping in with two feet, eh?!)
I just signed up for the Philly photo walk! I can't wait to meet up with other i heart faces/photography enthusiast's!
I've never been on a photo walk, but it sounds uber fun!!! Sounds like you have organized a fabulous day! Can't wait to see the pics from it!
Hope you're having a great day!!♥
I walk and I take pictures but not at the same time. Ha I know your walk will be SO, SO much fun!! You already have some great things planned. Enjoy
I have never been on a photo walk. But I often walk with my camera in my hand. Same thing????
You are awesome. YOu got all that stuff and those people together? Awesome.
Love these photos here...I want to visit this area. Ok, I just want to visit the store that says: CAKE.
Rebeckah,
You are amazing. I can't believe all the resources you pulled together. Your group is going to have so much fun. Good thing I have my sister along with me or else it would be one pathetic walk. :) I'll let her do all the planning.
Becky, I'm so excited that you're leading this walk!! You are going to show those lucky photographers a great time!
Oh Wow!! You will have such a great day!! Wish I could come!! Bit of a long flight through! I think it took me nearly a day to get there last time!!
Can't wait to see the pics!
That sounds fun! I have never been on a photo walk before but just seeing your pics, make me want to capture some historical images from my area. Thanks for the idea ;O)
I have not been on one... but it sounds like SO much fun! Can't wait to see your pictures from the walk, I'm sure they are going to be wonderful!

Pat's, Geno's and Chi Town are great places in Philly. There is so much historic places to see there too.
I really, really wish I lived close enough for this one! You all are going to have a fabulous time!
Sounds pretty cool.
Oh...my... goodness! And you were all "I wonder what it is??" on Facebook... heee! I am SO excited for you; what a fabulous honor and opportunity. I can't wait to see your shoot, as well as the others; I feel like I'm going on a road trip without leaving home! (well, except that I'll be down in Destin, FL and won't even get to go on the Atlanta one.. pfooooo!). Have a blast, girl... you will be the BEST!
you make me feel walking along with you...
Your walk sounds like a lot of fun! I wish I could join you!
The picture of that church is just beautiful. It makes me want to go in and study the beautiful windows.
Have fun!!!
That sounds so wonderful!!
I've never heard of a photo walk, but it sure sounds exciting! Congrats! How cool and fun is that?!
I heard about the photo walk and knew there wouldn't be one near me (but I checked just in case-- I was right) Have a great time.
I spent a year at Chestnut Hill and soooo would love to live close enough to go instead of being here in MN. Ahhh, I miss Philadelphia!
Love your pictures!
I'm so sad that I don't live in Philly - I'd join your photo walk. The pictures are gorgeous.
I've never been on a photo walk but it sounds like so much fun!
Oh wow! It does sound fabulous! I might just need to get back from Utah to make it there!
Your photos of Philly are wonderful!
I just signed up. I have a friend that lives in that area, so I'm familiar with it and it should be fun. I can't wait to meet you all. If anyone wants to carpool, I'm coming from North Wilmington, DE

I've never even heard of a photo walk but yours sounds amazing! Have a great time. I can't wait to see the end results.

I love your pictures! Don't you just love Philadelphia in Spring/Summer?
I love the shadows on shot 2 and the angle of #3 - my photo walks are almost always solo ones alas.
Lovely idea, lovely photos!
That's so exciting and great shots! Enjoy your walking!
Sounds like fun! Wish I were closer! Awesome pictures, too!
I did a photowalk in Boston last weekend. I wish I could make it to yours. They are so fun.
I imagine you'd be fantastic to go on a photo walk with!
you have a wonderful sense of adventure and you're a great photog
sounds like an amazing thing :)
Thank you for visiting my blog! I love your photography!
Wish I could join you - a bit far! Your pictures are so stunning.
What a fun day that's going to be, it sounds likes you have it planned perfectly! I can't wait to hear all about it!
I signed up for the walk...thanks for the invite. I just hope I can find it!! Wayne Woodruff at http://2zars.blogspot.com/ might be interested too. He photographs and follows both me and James and lives in Chalfont.
Oh! How I would love to be there...the commute from Los Angeles is a little much. Congratulations for being a part of it...and, no, I have not been on a photo walk but sure do want to!
A bit far off, but those things can be very fun.
That would be so awesome! Wish I could come ;)
Very cool, I liked seeing your town thru pics :)
You have some great shots there! I hope your photo walk is a success.
Wow! You have reached the pinnacle of blogging!!!
A photo walk sounds like so much fun! You shoot beautiful pictures, I'm sure you'll have a great time.
I have never been on a photo walk! My daughter goes to college in Philadelphia. Philadelphia University! thanks for stopping by my blog!
My sister and I often go for photo walks, but I've never heard of an organized one before! I sure wish I lived closer!!!
You are a wonderful photographer, I love the pictures you posted.
I have never been nor had I heard of one. These pics are stunning!!!!!!!!! Have fun.
Never heard of a photo walk but always love your pictures.
Great post Becky! This is going to be fun!
I'm signed up for Chicago and I can't wait!!! I'm excited to see everyone's pics from the day! Your group is lucky to have you to show them around the streets of Philly! Have fun!
Oops Lucy the cay was me. :)
Wow, Rebeckah, that sounds really fun! Congratulations. Truly, I think you guys are going to have an absolutely crazy fun time. I am so jealous. Remember the times we went to philly together? some of my absolute favorite memories. However, I have to admit that I am disappointed. I thought you were going to announce that you were pregnant. ;0)
This looks like so much fun and no, I have never been on a photo walk. :-(
I wish we could connect in real as easily as on the web!
What a wonderful idea! I have never been on a photo walk, but the one you have planned sounds incredible!
I would have liked to join you on this walk! Thanks for sharing and showing this walk. You're a great guide!
I also like to combine walking and taking photos! Or cycling and shooting pictures.
the air is fresh,
the sky is blue,
the building are tall,
I love them all!
How wonderful! You are the perfect person to lead this! Congratulations!
Those photos of this quaint town are beautiful. I can't wait to see more Photo Walk photos. :-)
I enjoyed this photo walk! That was incredible and fun.
YEAH! I will finally get to meet you!
I'm coming and will bring Lexi with me! WAHOOO!
She can even be an extra model if needed :-)
So excited!
Love and blessings - Jill

Thanks for your sweet comment on my blog. As you can see I haven't blogged in awhile.
I am a novice photogragher looking to take better shots of my sweet girl.
Looking forward to meeting you too.
Ooooh! I so want to see the inside of the cake shop. :) Awesome photos. Looks like it was a beautiful day. And very cool that you are leading the Photo Walk in your area. You have such talent!
I've never done a photo walk before... I can't wait to see what y'all come up with ! Your Philly pics have been great so far.
I got your invitation, but I don't know if I'll be making the walk. Sounds like fun though.
I've never been to Philadelphia. Thanks!
Wonderful photos my friend. I just love them. I've never been on a photo walk. How cool. Congrats to you. Mahalo for stopping by my playground. Have a great rest of the weekend :)
How exciting! I have been on one photowalk and that was in Nashville after Blissdom with Amy & Angie (and others). I was freezing cold but very fun!
I want to but is to far away, MB
I am so EXCITED!!! Cannot wait for the walk...... I know you have been busy planning all the details......it is going to be fabulous!! So happy to be part of this event:)
I plan to get a post together in the next day or two, so I can help spread the word!!

Lisa
Not only have I never been on a photo walk, I've never even HEARD of a photo walk. I am so anxious to come back and see all about it in June!
I just signed up for this walk. I am bringing my niece with me...she's an artist in Philly. I am so looking forward to the experience! See you then!
