SUMMARY

BEST WEEKEND EVER (BWE) was a vibrant three-day youth conference filled with sessions, block parties, and breakout groups designed to engage and inspire young attendees at Anthem Church. The event brought together students for worship, learning, and connection in an exciting and faith-centered environment. As a photographer, my role was to document the energy, community, and impactful moments that defined the weekend.

THE CHALLENGE

Capturing the dynamic nature of a multi-day event required adaptability to cover various settings, from high-energy block parties to reflective breakout groups. Ensuring every aspect of the conference, including its mission and the unique moments, was effectively highlighted posed a creative challenge. Balancing coverage of both group interactions and individual moments of growth demanded a keen eye and strategic planning. 

THE APPROACH

I focused on being present and intentional, capturing the authentic energy and spiritual depth of the event. By creating connections with attendees, I documented the essence of the community and the life-changing experiences throughout the weekend. My storytelling approach ensured that every image reflected the joy, growth, and impact of BWE.
