about holly garner

community leader, photographer, museum professional


Through my photography, I focus on quiet moments in busy places and the rich inspiration found in my travels. Discovering new places, meeting new people, seeing and sharing new perspectives is part of my artistic discovery.

As an early adopter to Instagram, I quickly recognized the lack of an Instagram community in Washington, DC. By founding IGDC in 2011, I set sights on creating a community that invited local photographers to embrace the social platform to share their work with a greater audience and to connect with fellow photographers. To foster creativity, IGDC curates daily features and organizes photo walks in the DC Metropolitan Area.
