In October 2020, Enterprise Partnerships invited Camera Story to co-mentor during a week-long photography and enterprise workshop in Broome, WA. Joining photographer and mentor, Freedom Garvey-Warr, the group of five women, Maria Fredericks, Kimberley French, Maria Jacobs, Colleen Mangolomara and Kitty Fredricks from the Kalumburu Photography Collective, traveled to Broome to participate in the development workshop.
The workshops provided the opportunity to enhance technical camera skills, explore post-production of images and editing software, improve computer literacy, and develop their online presence and Instagram profiles. Being in Broome, also allowed the women to connect with other Indigenous businesses, visiting Nagula Jarndu and receiving soaps and candles to bring back to Kalumburu.
