Depth of Field

Depth of Field is a weekend gathering bringing together women from across the action sports and outdoor media world.

This isn’t just another industry event - it’s a chance to genuinely connect, learn, and grow. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just getting started, you’ll walk away inspired, informed, and plugged into a supportive community of like-minded photographers, filmmakers, athletes, and storytellers.

Come along to hear real stories from people doing the work - not just the highlight reels. Learn how they got started, what challenges they faced, and how they’ve carved out their paths in the creative and sports industries. You’ll also get the inside scoop on working with brands, events, and media from the people hiring creatives right now.

Plus, the weekend is designed to be relaxed, collaborative, and fun - think good food, chill hangs, and plenty of space to meet rad people.

After a delicious lunch by the Sherwood chefs, we’ll dive into an open panel discussion featuring a mix of filmmakers and photographers. Expect a collaborative conversation covering industry insights, with plenty of time for questions and real talk.

Throughout the day, we’ll also be highlighting some exciting gear and product drops.
