Once
upon a time,
there was a photographer
who longed to:

Feel that "creative spark" again,


Get her
 "creative spark" 
back,


expand her mind
through artistic education,

meet other creatives and gather as a sisterhood of those who love photography and art,

escape the laundry and dishes (at least for a few days!), and create beautiful things,

capture unique and beautiful images while attending high-end styled photo shoots,

and,... feel the grass under her feet while walking through rows of flowers in bloom. 

Then
one amazing day, she came across something that made her dreams come true...

eat delicious food she didn't have
to prepare (enough said!),

Come and join me on a relaxing and creative escape from everyday life. This momentary pause will give you time to focus on your artistry and help you get that "magic spark" back. While we are together, we will soak up the charm and relaxation of local floral farms, and the calm serenity of the Northeastern countryside. We'll enjoy great food, amazing company, and gorgeous photo shoots. 

My dream, aim, and motivation with every single aspect of this retreat is to feed you creatively, awaken your inspiration, and completely spoil you! You give so much to others: your family and friends, community, and your business. It's time to nurture YOU. (And psst... the best news is that this experience can't help but benefit your craft and, by extension, your business as well!).

This retreat will provide a creative theme each day, which will be infused in activities, styled shoots, and even meals. In my retreats, no detail is left out - once you are in my care, I have it all covered and your only job is to have an amazing time!

Frequently Asked Questions

just in case you were wondering...

Doesn't this sound fun?!

is this open to all photographers?

This retreat is open to my students first (anyone who has purchased one or more of my courses), and then if there are still openings after that, I will open up spots for other photographers!

will there be styled shoots?

Yes! There will be styled shoots (family, maternity, and editorial). They will be set up to follow the "recipe" I teach in my Get the Glow course. They will range from highly creative, to soft and serene. ALL will be gorgeous!

how do I book and is the deposit refundable?

A non-refundable $500 deposit holds your place in the retreat. Once the spots fill up I have to turn others away (I'm sure you understand this policy as a business owner, yourself!) If you find that you can't come, you may sell your ticket to another.

WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THE PRICE?

Once you arrive to the retreat (travel to and from are up to you), the retreat price covers lodging, transportation, 2 meals a day (plus snacks), and admission to all events! I invest a LOT back in to each attendee.

can you tell me more about the meals? 

I will provide two meals a day (usually breakfast and dinner, although we may eat at different times). I will always have snacks available at the Airbnb for you to take with us when we head out, too! Please let me know of any dietary needs.

what do I need to do on my end?

Once you book your spot at the retreat, it is up to you to get there, and that's it! The minute you check in to the minute you check out, I've got things covered. Everything is planned to the "T!"

WHERE WILL WE BE STAYING?

We will be staying together in a large and charming home so we can enjoy conversation, food, camaraderie, stories, and PJ night! We won't be hanging out there the entire time (we have things to do!), but it is wonderful to all stay in one place.

Is there an itinerary I can view?

There will be when we get closer!  My creative director and I have been planning this next retreat for months and are SO excited to share what we have! Although there will be a few surprises :). 

will we have the time of our lives?

Abso-freaking-lutely! I take hosting and educating very seriously (but we also have so much fun!). I am fixated on making sure you feel taken care of and completely spoiled. Whatever it takes! 

WHAT IS THE SLEEPING SITUATION?

There will be 15 attendees (there is PLENTY of room for all!), and everyone will have their own bed. There are options for single and shared rooms (see below). If you have a roommate request, let me know!

Private rooms (4 available) - $3900

A little more about where we'll be staying...

I was over the MOON to book this home for us! It has so much space, you might burst into spontaneous skipping just because you can. It will be a fantastic "home away from home" where you can relax and feel completely at ease. We also have a few options by way of rooms! There are shared and private rooms, and please let me know if you'd like to come with a friend and stay together. There is PLENTY of space for all attendees... and more! Retreat prices reflect your room choice, but no matter what you decide, you will be completely taken care of with fantastic meals, fun events, beautiful shoots, and
top-notch education. I invest a LOT back in to each person at my retreats. It is my absolute pleasure to do so.
