Craftcation Conference: Capturing Creativity and Connectivity

As the official photographer for Craftcation, an annual five-day conference in Ventura, California, I had the opportunity to document a dynamic gathering of makers, artists, and small business owners. My role was to visually capture the energy and essence of the event—from hands-on craft workshops and expert-led business panels to wellness activities and vibrant networking moments. Through my photography, I highlighted the diversity of attendees and activities, ensuring that future participants from across different skill-levels and backgrounds could see themselves reflected in this creative space.

In addition to storytelling through imagery, I worked closely with event organizers to showcase key sponsors like Spoonflower, Brambleberry, Singer, and Oliso, capturing their products in action and seamlessly integrating them into the conference’s visual narrative. My photographs continue to be used in Craftcation’s marketing materials, shaping the event’s brand identity and outreach efforts.

I’m honored to return as their photographer again in 2025, continuing to bring this inspiring community to life through my lens.
