PAST RETREATS
We are proud that our participants’ work from our retreats are adorning some of the most renowned international publications, including:
The COVID-19 Pandemic was a challenging time for so many, especially wedding industry professionals who dedicate their lives to make a wedding day the most magical, special day in a couples’ life. Photographers play one of the most important roles in a wedding day, capturing all of the raw emotions and beautiful moments for their clients to enjoy and relive for the rest of their lives. Being a wedding planner, I have always known how crucial quality photography is, but for me the pandemic definitely carried a silver lining as it gave me a chance to understand other wedding creatives on an entirely different level! After connecting and collaborating with so many amazing spirits in the wedding community over the course of the pandemic, many of which were photographers, I began planning retreats to provide wedding photographers with an opportunity to unwind while realigning themselves to their purpose, business, and brand. I wanted more than anything to bring together a group of creative minds for the most worthwhile, transformative 3 day experience in beautiful destinations around the world!
After travel loosened back up and the wedding industry was booming again, we finally were able to host our first retreat in Tuscany in November 2021 with a group of 25 photographers from 13 different states and 4 different countries for 4 breathtaking days of networking, shooting, and education at the picturesque Villa Cetinale. I am still finding it difficult to verbalize how surreal this experience was and what a beautiful community we have built! Our attendees have described it as a life altering, rejuvenating experience beyond what dreams are made of. There were many tears, there were many laughs, and most importantly there was an abundance of beautiful content created to inspire brides all over the world! We are delighted to share a collective gallery from our host photographers, who educated, nurtured, and offered their expertise over the course of 4 awe-inspiring days!
