Riverwerks 2023

Habersham Mill - Demorest, GA
October 29, 2023

I have taken part in some spectacular automotive events over the past several years, but few have come close to offering the ambiance, enthusiasm, and streamlined organization displayed by Riverwerks this past weekend.

Hosted by our friends Leh Keen and Autohaus Social, Riverwerks is a celebration of Porsche passion, drawing in enthusiasts from all over the region to Habersham Mills in Demorest, GA. A long abandoned iron works and manufacturing complex made for a uniquely picturesque backdrop for a stunning collection of Porsches from all eras, and it's clear that some truly creative minds were behind the setup.

Every single nook, cranny, and empty building was utilized, with each car staged within its own little vignette. As a photographer, this was such a treat. In fact, I wish I had taken more photos, but I was so caught up in the moment, just taking it all in. It was something of a sensory overload, but then that's a hallmark of all of my favorite automotive gatherings.

Every form of Porsche, from classic to contemporary, museum-grade to modified, air cooled and water cooled alike, were all brilliantly represented, fully showcasing the vast reach and diversity that this storied automaker inspires. In both quantity and quality, Riverwerks was exemplary, and it was made all the better by the company of so many friends I've made over the years who attended.

I cannot emphasize how special it felt to be there, nor how proud I am of our friends in the business for hosting such an incredible weekend. It was a real honor to be a part of. Congratulations to Nash, Leh, and everyone else involved, on a truly memorable inaugural event.
