The Graceful Gathering is not any “workshop” or intensive study. It’s a loving community to its core. Courtney pours her heart and soul into creating a place of grounded education and a safe space for young and old creatives to fully invest in themselves. You’ll leave this community not only with amazing education, but people who understand you, and friendships that will last a lifetime! 

I went to The Graceful Gathering as a Senior Photographer that also loved photographing couples. At TGG I found my true passion and now two years later I photograph weddings. I loved the connections I made with other photographers, the education we got and the gorgeous styled shoot we were able to attend.

At round one of The Graceful Gathering, I was reminded why it is so pertinent to provide grace to our clients & to ourselves, & to give more faith that things will work out when we give them to God. I met quite a few new industry friends, becoming very close to a few of them, & was able to meet a few of my Instagram friends for the first time! So much fun! They guided styled shoot that was included that I attended was great. And then I saw glimpses of the add-on - wow!! I should've participated in that one, too! I don't think I am the only one who can say that they had an absolute blast at The Graceful Gathering, round one. I'm definitely looking forward to coming back!! I love being a people-person, making them feel welcome, & helping them however I can. I love to serve. Let me know how I can be of help to you!
