BlackBird Gathering Exceeds Expectations!



Birdman Inc and The Blackwell Files would like thank all of you who attended the first BlackBird Gathering last night at the Presidio Yacht Club in Sausalito.

Getting to know the people we work with on a personal level, celebrating life and forging friendships really seemed to lift everyone’s spirits. We are truly honored that so many incredible people showed up and we consider ourselves fortunate to be part of this community.

There is no doubt we as hosts had an unforgettable night, but don’t take our word for it. Here’s what some of our friends had to say about last night’s party:

“A huge thank you to you all for creating such a wonderful event last night, what a great time had by everyone! It is so nice for the community to come together, just because, and have real connections. It means a lot. And, to finally meet certain people face-to-face... that was the biggest treat!”

“Just wanted to say thank you for such a cool and fun event! It was really great to get to see so many people all together. The venue was perfect, the tacos delicious. It was a great feeling of community.”

“WOW! What a fun night. Met a ton of very cool people, which is not surprising because you guys are the magnets! Thank you so much for including me…really fun to come out sporting a bindi.”

“Thank you all for such a great uplifting and fun party- it felt like a reunion of sorts for me and I enjoyed every minute of it.”

“What a great evening! I think that was the first time many of the folks I've met thru the biz over the last 15? years were gathered in one spot. Thanks for bringing us all together.”

“Thanks a million for gathering the SF photo community – connecting faces with names and voices - from the captain's bar to the cheese table, onward to the taco truck and the boardwalk views - altogether, the evening was a delight.”

“Thank you for hosting an amazing gathering last night. It was wonderful to see so many familiar faces and catch up in person. What a beautiful location. It was a great idea to bring people together prior to the holiday madness, too.”
