Unfiltered. Unapologetic. Unforgettable.

THE VIRTUAL CONFERENCE REPLAYS

Two days. Ten hours of photography, business, and creative conversations worth coming back to.

Unfiltered AF brought together documentary photographers, mentors, and industry leaders for two days of workshops, honest panel discussions, photographic critiques, and practical business education.

From developing your photographic voice and finding opportunities beyond social media to building a business, navigating uncertainty, and making stronger photographs, these sessions cover the creative and practical sides of being a photographer.

Whether you joined us live or missed the conference entirely, you can now watch the recordings at your own pace, revisit the conversations that resonate, and put what you learn into practice.

Ash rADDATZ & JENNA SHOULDICE

For the past 10+ years, we’ve helped thousands of photographers find their voice, refine their vision, and build businesses and work rooted in meaning, sustainability, and impact.

We’ve helped photographers at every stage from those just picking up a camera, to those who’ve been doing this for years.

And we knew we had to bring this work to more of you… photographers with the heart, grit, and creative fire to lead in this new era even in times of uncertainty.

So we called on other industry leaders and the people we’ve mentored, the ones doing extraordinary work in the world right now, and brought this conference to life.

A Quick Note on Results:

We’re here to give you clarity, tools, support, and various strategies based on our experiences, but we can’t guarantee specific results. Your success depends on your own effort, commitment, follow-through, and unique circumstances.

Every photographer’s journey is different. We can’t predict where yours will go, but if you show up and do the work, this can be a powerful part of it and you will get a lot further than staying stuck and scrolling social media.

We give you just the real stuff that works when you work it, know what we mean?

No copy and paste, idealistic strategy that requires a severe Type A personality to keep up with (nothin’ against Type A’s btw)… because every photographer has a different background, different goals, and their own version of success. And let’s face it, us creatives are a bit messy and all over the place.
So instead of some “guru” bullshit, we give you support, clarity, and various ways to approach things, ideas, real world examples, helpful guidance, etc. and depending on your unique situation you choose what fits best for you.
