The Good Gate Presents - Windowlight at Wildemere

ARTISTS, UNITE! 📸✨

It’s me, Cosimo — Owner & Lead Photographer for The Good Gate and DIG’S Photography.

WELCOME TO WINDOWLIGHT AT WILDEMERE, the 3rd Group Shoot hosted by The Good Gate in 2026. This stunning Detroit estate is the perfect backdrop to create incredible portfolio work while connecting, collaborating, and celebrating with fellow photographic artists.

If you’ve been to a Good Gate event before, you already know the vibe: good energy, beautiful light, creative freedom, and a room full of artists ready to make magic.

This event will be split into two creative sessions:

☀️ Day Group — 12PM–4PM
🌙 Night Group — 5PM–9PM

Each session runs 4 hours and includes:
• Models
• Photographers
• Stylists
• Multiple shooting spaces throughout the estate

This event is 18+ only because some artists may be creating boudoir, implied, topless, or art nude work.

Important to know:
• No one is required to shoot any specific genre.
• You simply must be comfortable being in a creative environment where others may be shooting up to art nude.
• No pressure or coercion to shoot beyond anyone’s boundaries will ever be tolerated.

Clear communication about creative limits and expectations before shooting is strongly encouraged.

Each session will include approximately:

Models: up to 18
Photographers: up to 10

This balance allows everyone plenty of opportunity to collaborate while keeping the environment creative, relaxed, and productive.

Artists will not be granted entry until 15 minutes before their session begins.

Please:
• Do not arrive earlier than 30 minutes prior
• Begin packing gear 10–15 minutes before your session ends
• Vacate the estate at your ticket end time so the next group can enter smoothly

The estate features several unique shooting areas, each with beautiful natural light and distinctive character.

To keep things fair:

• Shooting areas are limited to 30 minutes per artist
• Sign-up sheets will be provided before the event

All registered attendees will be invited to the Private Facebook Event Page, where the sign-ups will be shared. Cosimo will send the invite after you complete registration.

THIS EVENT IS INVITE ONLY.
Please do not share the event link or details with anyone else.

If you purchase a ticket without receiving an invite from a Good Gate Team Member, your ticket will be refunded and entry will not be permitted.

Regular tickets go on sale April 20, 2026 (by invite only).

The first 25 artists to purchase a ticket before April 20, 2026 receive 15% off.

⚠️ Artists purchasing All-Day Tickets are expected to actively create during both sessions.
Please do not purchase one unless you plan to participate throughout the entire event.

Only ticketed photographers and videographers may capture photos or video during the event.

Models may not set up cameras or mobile devices for behind-the-scenes footage due to the privacy of other artists attending.

Purchasing a ticket does not guarantee you will shoot with any specific artist.

Artists are always free to:
• Accept or decline collaborations
• Choose who they create with

No one is owed an explanation.

Good Gate events are best viewed as networking opportunities where great collaborations often happen organically.

We’re bringing in professional stylists to elevate the creative experience.

Stylists will be located in the 2nd Floor Loft.

✨ Bundle Styling

Space inside the estate is extremely limited.

Because of this, there are no chaperone tickets available.
If you require a chaperone for comfort or safety, this event will unfortunately not be a good fit.

• Free street parking is available near the estate. Team Members will drive you from the parking area to the home we are shooting at.
• Because this is a private location, the address will be sent 4–6 days before the event.

Upon arrival, please check in at the entry door using your Eventbrite QR code with a Good Gate team member.

Photos shown in the listing are images of the estate itself.
Any images featuring models are from previous Good Gate events and group shoots.

Lock in your ticket early before prices increase — and get ready for another incredible day of creativity, connection, and artistry with The Good Gate community. ✨📸
