the honest part.

It is hard to find likeminded individuals within a safe space that isn't selfish.  It's hard to find a conference that personally and corporately builds you up.  It's hard finding people that just feel like family

our part.

Over the past 5 years we have amassed a family of likeminded people that are close knit and open to collaborating on thoughts and sharing "best practice" techniques.  70%$ of the speakers for this year's conference are consistent members that are reachable on a daily  basis.

"The Peculiar Collective Conference was a fantastic experience that seamlessly blended professionalism with a warm, family-oriented atmosphere. The event's focus on inclusivity and fostering connections made it feel more like a reunion of like-minded individuals rather than a traditional conference. From engaging sessions to heartfelt networking opportunities, it truly embodied the essence of a supportive and welcoming community."

"The team did an awesome job putting this together. I was impressed last year, but this year really sealed the deal. I even invited my team of church photographers to attend this year and saw the impact from the conference IMMEDIATELY! Their images improved TREMENDOUSLY!"
~DANNELL

"It was awesome to be at a conference that spoke to ME, a person of color by people of color mainly. This was my first time but it definitely won't be my last. The team did an excellent job. I actually liked the university setting. I have not one negative or critical thing to say about this conference. Thank YOU!
