I would do the following:
- quit shotwell
- make a backup copy of the database
- physically move the photos
- start shotwell
- wait
normally shotwell finds photos even if you move them around in the
used folders. At least that is what happens with all the photos
I often move around.

If that does not work out, unwind:
- quit shotwell
- move the photos back
- restore the photo db.
