Camera West San Francisco - Grand Opening Party

Join Camera West San Francisco for an evening of conversation, community, and celebration as we officially open our new home on Maiden Lane.

The evening begins with a special conversation moderated by Sage Backstrom, bringing together Sean Cranor and longtime friend of Camera West, Mark de Paola. Together, they will reflect on the shared enjoyment of collecting cameras and watches, using them to create meaningful work, and how these tools ultimately connect us to communities and friendships that make the journey all the more rewarding.

This is more than a store opening. It is a celebration of craft, curiosity, and the relationships formed through a shared appreciation for capturing time and collecting the tools that help us remeber it.

Refreshments will be provided.

We look forward to welcoming you, raising a glass, and showing you the new Camera West San Francisco space.

RSVP is Required

In Celebration of Camera West’s San Francisco Store Grand Opening:

Camera West is proud to celebrate the Grand Opening of its new San Francisco flagship at 120 Maiden Lane, marking a major milestone in the company’s continued commitment to photographers, collectors, and creative communities.

Spanning three thoughtfully designed floors, the new space brings together the world’s leading photographic tools from Leica, Hasselblad, Fujifilm, Canon, Nikon, and Sony alongside a curated selection of fine watches, writing instruments, and collector accessories from CW Watch Shop. More than a retail store, Camera West San Francisco is an immersive destination built around craft, creativity, and community, featuring brand boutiques, hands-on experiences, workshops, and a dedicated event space for education and collaboration.

Located just steps from Leica Store San Francisco, the new Maiden Lane location strengthens Camera West’s long-standing connection to the Bay Area while creating a global destination for photographers and collectors visiting the city.

To mark the opening, Camera West will host a plethora of special programming including in-store demonstrations, hands-on field experiences, artist master classes, community gatherings, and a Grand Opening celebration bringing together photographers, creators, and friends of the Camera West community.
