Order an Image
Seattle photographer Al Smith began taking photographs as a hobby as a teenager and continued documenting his experiences, both abroad and at home, throughout his life. Best known for his photos of Seattle's Jackson Street area jazz clubs and musicians, Smith also photographed family, friends, and local people in their everyday lives

This image shows three photographers set up to take photos outdoors in an unidentified park-like environment. Two of the men have their cameras on tripods, and they speak with a third photographer. They were likely friends of Al Smith, with all four on a outing to take pictures in the natural landscape.
