When we looked back on our experiences with workshops, educational opportunities, and mentors, all three of us saw room for improvement in the way these activities were delivered. In our careers, we have all experienced interactions within the photographer community that left us feeling like photographers like us were not well represented in the industry leadership.

 When we set out to create Cowgirls with Cameras, our mission became to incorporate the things we most wanted when we attend workshops; seek growth or expertise; work with a mentor; or access our support community. As we grow and expand Cowgirls with Cameras opportunities, we are focusing on nine points we feel will bring an enriched experience to those who attend our experiences and offerings.
