Seattle Camera Club (1924-1930) exhibit at Cascadia Art Museum. Stunning and historical work. A must see 📷

Cascadia's Curator, David Martin, has spent decades researching and rediscovering works by members of the Seattle Camera Club (1924-1930).

Established in 1924, the Seattle Camera Club (SCC) was a pioneering group in the blossoming movement of pictorialism, or art photography. At its height in the late 20's, SCC members were some of the most exhibited pictorial photographers in the world. Despite this success, factors like the Great Depression and the unjust incarceration of Issei SCC members during WW2 disrupted their lives and led the loss of much of their work.

In this photo: David Martin shares the story of Ella McBride (1862-1965), a core SCC member whose photography studio became a hub for SCC members to produce work, collaborate, and share techniques.

Visit Shadows of a Fleeting World: Pictorial Photography and the Seattle Camera Club through September 13th at Cascadia Art Museum!

A very happy birthday to photographer Lee Friedlander who turns 92 today, July the 14th 2026.

In the 1960s and 1970s, Friedlander evolved an influential and often imitated visual language of urban "social landscape," with many of his photographs including fragments of store-front reflections, structures framed by fences, posters and street signs. His work is characterized by its innovative use of framing and reflection, often using the natural environment or architectural elements to frame his subjects.

Master Photographer

Alfred Stieglitz, seen here in a self portrait taken in 1888, died on this day, July 13th, in 1946.

Stieglitz was a US photographer, and modern art promoter, who was instrumental over his fifty-year career in fighting to make photography an accepted art form in its own right.
