DIVERSITY & INCLUSION POLICY

Last updated March 9, 2026

At Twig & Olive Photography, we believe every individual, couple, and family deserves to be seen, celebrated, and authentically represented. Our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion is woven into every aspect of our Madison-based studio and our global educational reach.

Inclusive Photography Services

We provide photography that embraces all cultures, identities, and expressions of love. We celebrate our clients regardless of race, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, or background.

  • Our wedding and portrait sessions are tailored to reflect the unique beauty of the people we work with. We avoid "one-size-fits-all" posing.
  • We prioritize making every client feel comfortable and confident, ensuring styling and location guidance are inclusive.

Business and Hiring Standards

Diversity extends beyond who we photograph to how we operate. We partner with vendors who share our values and prioritize equal opportunity in our professional collaborations.

  • Our workshops and resources support photographers of all backgrounds to foster a more accessible industry.
  • We actively seek out collaborations that represent a broad spectrum of perspectives and life experiences.

Authentic Representation in Content

We are intentional about the stories we share. Our marketing materials and portfolio highlight a diverse range of identities and body types. We commit to meaningful representation and actively avoid tokenism in our blog posts and social media.

Commitment to Growth

Inclusivity is an ongoing effort. We regularly review our policies and seek educational opportunities to better support underrepresented communities. We welcome feedback from our Madison community and the wider photography industry as we continue to improve.
