Every year, photographers from every corner of the country converge at SYNC for an experience that goes far beyond the typical educational conference. It’s a weekend filled with inspiration, genuine connection, and transformation—a time when laughter is abundant, friendships are formed, and our businesses get a powerful boost.
At SYNC, we don’t just attend classes and listen to keynotes—we meet people who truly understand the challenges and triumphs of our journey as photographers and small business owners. Whether you’re a seasoned professional or just starting out, SYNC is the space where creativity flourishes, ideas ignite, and support flows freely.
Set against the stunning backdrop of the Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort—with its Southern charm and breathtaking sunset views of Choctawhatchee Bay—SYNC is more than an event. It’s a homecoming, a reunion, a special gathering of our tight-knit photography family where you truly “Find Your People!”
Just a short, two-minute stroll from the event at Baytowne Wharf, you’ll find a vibrant mix of shops, dining, and entertainment. It’s the kind of place where you’re bound to run into fellow SYNC attendees at every corner. Whether you’re unwinding to the picturesque sunsets over the bay or taking a short drive to the sugar-white sands and turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico (just one mile away), the experience is unforgettable.
