Ymn Merhebi (Original Post) What is photography if the picture isn’t imprinted in the heart before being captured by the lens? Shadows, nothing more. More than you already know, photography has recently become a growing passion to me. Nothing seems to quench that thirst of photographing everything and everyone lately and to be honest, the [...]

Nour Kabbara (Original Post) Today, I woke up to fireflies. Owl Cities’ “Fireflies”, which is one of the most soothing alarm tones to wake up to. As today, was “Shoot As You Walk 29”. Taha N had messaged me the path last night and like last time, it was to “Dahr El Megher”. But, unlike [...]

Ymn Merhebi (Orginal Post) Perhaps it’s not the best shoot as you walk journey I’ve been to, but so many thing got in the way that made it nevertheless unforgettable. It’s been such a long time since I last went on a journey to the center of Tripoli that I’ve missed everything about it. We [...]

Bilal Kamoon (Original Post) lol   Fun, excitement, enthusiasm, passion, positive energy, sunday mornings’ serenity, nature, photography… all in one place at the same time. Is this even possible? Absolutely! It’s Shoot As You Walk in its 29th adventure for 11/03/2012. Shoot As You Walk is a public event organized by We Love Tripoli, a Lebanese, youth-led, non-governmental organization promoting social [...]

Nour Kabbara (Original Post) The winds of change haven’t left us yet. This March has been the coldest month we’ve had this year, with snow and rain and blistering cold! Despite the weather, “Shoot As You Walk” is back with it’s 1st adventure of 2012! This time, the path was a one less travelled, to [...]

Ymn Merhebi (Original Post) Two years, 25 journeys, more than 300 photographers (professional & amateur) and one beloved city. I still find it hard to believe that two years have already passed for the shoot as you walk group’s events! It really seems like yesterday, perhaps because we never count our happy moments, and that time [...]

Ymn Merhebi (Original Post) Let me tell you the story of an ancient city, a city so rich in its heritage that each and every tiny alley is a time witness despite the fact that it’s getting poorer and more neglected by the minute. It’s sad really, because if you don’t surround yourself with love, nothing [...]

Nour Kabbara (Original Post) Finally, its October, my favorite month of the year! Apart from it being my birth month, it also marks the beginnings of autumn (though I’m still counting on at least one last trip to the beach for a proper goodbye, maybe next week?) and better photo ops. Take today for example; I [...]

Nour Kabbara (Original Post) I’m guessing this is this year’s finale of the “Shoot As You Walk” Ramadaniat series. And as I’ve been informed, the path is going to include Azmi & Kadisha streets… Truth be told, I’m not that interested in going this time, mainly because of the overcrowded streets that become so as the [...]

Farah Merhebi (Original Post) It’s been a while now since I attended my first “shoot as you walk” event with “We Love Tripoli” people. To tell you the truth, I was not quite certain I would ever repeat it.. let me first explain that ever since we were kids, old Tripoli with all its charm [...]
