Behind the Scene: Ottawa Rising Tide Style Shoot

Just over a year ago, two couples from Annapolis started a creative movement that changed how creatives around the world interact and collaborate with each other. The Rising Tide Society brings creatives together in the spirit of community over competition, because “a rising tide lifts all boats.” (J.F.K)

In the winter, a local chapter got create in Ottawa, and one Tuesday a month, we meet to chat about how to lift each other up as creative entrepreneurs. In the spirit of collaboration, the Ottawa group planned and contributed to a large style shoot where everyone showcased their abilities and talents. The theme was Southern Bridal Brunch and the outcome exceeded my expectations.

So here are the behind the scene of our style shoot that brought so many great vendors together!
