Camp Common Folk

Venue: Donnelly River

Web: http://campcommonfolk.com.au/

Camp Common Folk is a 3-night camp (glamp) being held at Donnelly River in WA's south-west from 14-17 September. For wedding photographers of all levels, it's part conference and part workshop - with nine local and national speakers talking about all things business and creative - as well as a focus on the attendees to share and learn from each other, and build an on-going community vibe. There are also some killer bonfire nights planned.

The event is hosted by Common Folk Collective, an open community of like-minded, creative, common individuals who like hanging out, talking shop and understanding the business of wedding photography. Not some ‘get in touch with your inner self’ camp, it’s wedding photographers camp.
