The Olive Gathering | A Winter Workshop

Early on in my photography journey, I met a very talented creative named Carly. As Carly continued to grow her business, she realized she had a heart for education and bringing creatives together to build a community. Teaming up with her friend Brianna, these two introduced The Olive Gathering, a creative brand made to bring photographers together. I had the pleasure of attending their third workshop this past December and left inspired and refreshed. I had been feeling for awhile that I wanted to take time to create outside of timelines, and find an artistic side of my work that sometimes gets lost in the hustle. With the help of some incredible vendors, Carly and Brianna created the perfect opportunity for me to dwell in the shoot and to create something that felt new and innovative. I’m excited to share some of my favorite images from the day with you now, and further excited for what The Olive Gathering has in store for the future.

The very talented vendors who made this day possible! Thank you thank you!
