WORLDWIDE • 2026 & 2027 TRAVEL ADVENTURES
Travel Calendar
Resfeber
noun | restless anticipation before a journey, when anxiety and excitement mix
We collect airline miles like it’s a competition. And we’re winning. Travel isn’t part of our brand; it’s the heartbeat. We’ve photographed clients and mentored photographers across all 50 states and over 20 countries, more ground than most studios cover in a lifetime.
Twig & Olive Travel and Themed Session Calendar for 2026
In the U.S., you’ll find us in the Pacific Northwest’s misty forests, along California’s golden coast, across Texas’s vast landscapes, and on Florida’s sunlit shores. 2026 takes us even further, back to Australia again and everywhere in between.
If we’re nearby, let’s create your portrait story. And if you want us to come to you for a wedding? We’ll bring the adventure.
These travel dates don’t mean we’re unavailable that day!
Almost all travel dates are with Doug, which means Courtney is often back home and ready to photograph your session or wedding. We’ve heard too many times that someone didn’t even inquire because they saw we were traveling. Please always send your inquiry!
We’re available for portrait sessions and weddings year-round. Our wedding packages include travel at no additional cost; we handle all logistics with no surprises.

PHOTOGRAPHY EDUCATION WITH TWIG AND OLIVE
Trips that Teach
2026 keeps us on the road and in front of photographers we love learning alongside. You’ll find us at WPPI in Las Vegas, ShutterFest in St. Louis, and teaching a workshop on Australia’s Gold Coast. Seven years of ShutterFest and counting, and we’re not slowing down.
If you’re interested in bringing us to your PPA chapter, photography group, or event, reach out. We love this work.
