I had the pleasure of attending The Peculiar Collective's 2022 conference, and I must say, it was an extraordinary experience from start to finish!

One aspect that truly sets The Peculiar Collective apart is their commitment to fostering a sense of community and connection among group memebers. The networking opportunities provided are invaluable, allowing me to meet like-minded individuals, forge new friendships, and even establish professional contacts. The organizers encouraged interaction and collaboration, creating an environment where ideas flowed freely, and creativity thrived. I wholeheartedly recommend The Peculiar Collective to anyone seeking a vibrant and supportive community in the world of photography and videography

Listen, if you didn’t attend the Peculiar Collective Conference 2023, then you missed it.  Trust me, you don’t want to miss it again. This conference was inclusive of every level of photography and videography.  We had the chance to learn from the best in the industry because the Conference Speakers were nothing short of AMAZING. There were top notch vendors present to show off the latest and greatest cameras, lenses, lighting and other necessary tools in today’s market.  Even our local camera shop, Service Photo was there to lend support.  I loved it so much last year that I brought friends along this year. The (KFAME) Kingdom Fellowship AME Church Photography Team saw the value in PC23 and 7 showed up.  Two other friends from the DMV came as well.  We all walked away with golden nuggets to improve our photography and our businesses.  It was THAT good!

Shout out to the Peculiar Collective Team who worked tirelessly to show us a good time and an awesome learning experience.  YOU DID IT RIGHT!

I heard that there were early bird tickets still available until a November 30th for just $349. PC24 is going to be epic.  Be like me and get yours NOW!

when i first started photography i didn’t know what i was doing, i just loved the art of photography. in 2 1/2 years i went through the stages of trail and era — fixing what i knew could be better and what i could’ve changed.

I had the pleasure of doing a workshop and attending the 2023 Peculiar Conference. As someone who has spoken at larger photography conferences, this was hands down the best conference I've been a part of. From the welcome I received when arriving to the photo walk and brunch on the final day.
This was truly a wonderful experience getting to know fellow photographers, learn from the best in the industry, and have excellent networking opportunities. I plan to be at everyone from now on. The team did a phenomenal job!

The Peculiar Collective is an amazing group to be a part of hands down. The things you learn in this community is nothing short of spectacular. When you come to their events you feel like family. I would recommend anyone at any level to come join this collective because I know what you are going to learn and the help you will receive. I mean they have helped me like you would never believe.

I've been looking for a community of creatives to connect with for sometime. I feel like the Peculiar Collective is what I have been searching for. I attended their virtual training on the exposure triangle. I was greeted with kindness, encouragement, and support. The training was easy to understand. The trainers and members were extremely generous in explaining the lesson to ensure I understood what was the concept on a practical level. Im looking forward to interacting more with the collective and i'm excited to attend the Peculiar Conference .

When I became a part of this community, I realized I had found a place where passion meets mentorship. The guidance provided by seasoned photographers is invaluable. Their expertise not only refines your technical abilities but also fuels your artistic vision.

Fellow photographers share their insights, critique your work constructively, and encourage you to explore uncharted territories in photography.

If you're passionate about photography and eager to grow, this mentoring group will elevate you to the next level.
