Shotwell stores it's data in a SQLite database. You can change the path as follows:

close Shotwell

make a backup of ~/.local/share/shotwell/data

sqlite3 photo.db

type a command like this:

sqlite> update PhotoTable set filename = replace(filename, '/old/path/', '/home/me/new/path/') where filename like "/media/media%";
