It’s crazy to think its almost been 2 months since I attended the Unveil Workshop put on by Nathan English Photography! When I met with him during the winter for a mentoring session and he mentioned that he was putting together a workshop, I knew right away that it was a workshop I wanted to be at. I have admired Nathan’s work for as long as I can remember, before I even started my own photography business 5 years ago, and I knew he was someone I wanted to learn more from. He does incredible work but what I love the most about Nathan is his heart and the way he cares for his clients. Thats what has always stood out to me the most. There are so many incredibly talented photographers in the world, but its the heart behind the work that captures me the most and Nathan is the best of the best.
I am so happy to say that this workshop did not disappoint. He shared so much of his heart and knowledge as well as helped craft some gorgeous vignettes for us to photograph. I learned so much in the 2 days we were together and I have loved being able to start to implement the various things I learned. Not only did I learn a lot but I had the chance to meet so many other incredible photographers too and learn along side them. It was so fun to be able to bounce ideas off from other talented creatives and be able to help each other out.
Another amazing part of this workshop was the incredible food provided by the Everyday Chef & Wife! They made all of our meals for us, which was all so incredible, and they ended the workshop by cooking and serving us the most amazing meal. Truthfully, I am struggling to truly articulate how wonderful this workshop was. The time that went into planning each and every detail was so obvious. Nathan gathered the best of the best in the industry to help provide an incredible experience for us attendees and it did not go unnoticed by me. I am so incredibly thankful for this experience, the work Nathan put in to creating this workshop, all of the work the vendors put in to creating gorgeous vignettes for us to photograph, the amazing food provided, and the talented photographers I got to work alongside and learn alongside. Thankful is all I can really say. I am just so thankful.
Vendor love!

I can’t stress enough about how much work went into this workshop and how excited I was to be able to attend. It completely blew away my expectations and it truly was such a joy to have been able to attend. The dinner that ended the workshop was about a 3 hour long dinner that included multiple courses, cooking steak on really hot rocks, trying all sorts of new foods, lots of fellowship with incredible people, and a whole lot of laughter. It was a workshop and time in my life that I will never forget and I am so excited to share these images with you.
