2019 Colorado Leap Retreat || Register Here
Registration is officially open right here for our 2019 Leap retreat. Please read below for all you need to know about this retreat before reserving your seat. Everything you need to know is shared right in this post.
Leap stands for so much that I needed in the beginning of my own journey. It’s a special experience for those that want so much more than just the know how. Leap is for those that want to find their pulse and discover their “why.”
Because honestly, that leap of faith is what stands in the way of all of the good things waiting for us in that vast unknown.
We surround ourselves with these invisible walls built out of our own fear… or maybe that is just me. Either way, this is a walk we don’t have to do alone because we aren’t alone. This had been on my heart for some time… years in fact. I had wanted to host a very special experience that incorporates a healthy love for photography, a passionate and safe place to nurture hearts and minds– with an educational opportunity to bring out the most in each woman that chooses to join me in this experience. I have been looking for the courage to leave the comfort of my own nest as a self professed people loving introvert, to envelop others in a warm and safe environment. I believe to truly grow, we have to be willing to shed our skin and offer up a bit of vulnerability in exchange for the chance to fully bloom and come into our own. To help photographers reach their goals by helping them to listen to their own unique voice, a voice that begs to be heard but is sadly so often pushed away and squandered in fear is my biggest goal. Friends, your work is so intertwined with just who you are. Too often we are afraid to even acknowledge that we love what we are doing in the fear that we will come across as less than humble or not genuine but the truth is, you deserve to be doing and creating things you love. I want to help you do that. I want to be that safe space for you.
It is so easy to let the voices and the influences of others in– and it taints our ability to believe in ourselves and to trust our own true visions at times. It is terrifying to put yourself out there. I understand that as well as anyone. But this is your safe haven. I have the chance to sit across from women each year. Mentoring and nurturing other souls is something that has proved to be a huge blessing to me as well. This is that but on a grander scale filled with fellowship and friendship and reconnection.
What is included:
-A riveting and beautiful experience.
This is not a formal retreat. Pack your favorite yoga pants/sweat pants/cozy pants of choosing. Bring those house shoes and that dry shampoo. We will have breakfast together every morning, take nature walks and explore our surroundings, breath in that fresh mountain air, have bits of down time in between all of the learning (there is even a hammock, folks!). Think a bunch of girlfriends sharing a love for photography and all things beautiful together. I want to hear your stories. This is meant to be reinvigorating. Whether you are slightly introverted like myself or completely outgoing, we are about creating a sisterhood with bonds so strong they last for years to come. I am here to teach you, but I am also here to hopefully support you and create something memorable for you.
-All main meals + some snacks (okay lots of snacks because it’s me.)
You are welcome to bring anything you want too though. Judgement free zone. If you do have any dietary restrictions or allergies please do let me know so I can be mindful of your needs. There will also be coffee, tea and wine.
-Lodging in the cutest 1950’s Colorado Cabin. This cabin is surrounded by glorious aspen trees + mountains and is AMAZING. it has cozy, homey touches and will be our backdrop for our sessions. You only need bring your heart, an open mind and your camera.
-At least three amazing shoots.
1 Lifestyle Family session IN the cabin, a Full Family session outside with the landscapes and mountains all around (yet again…another pretty epic family) + a bonus shoot (Mama & Me.)
You shoot right alongside me. I am here to help you with anything you need that extra bit of help with.
-20 Minute one-on-one time with each gal during our time together to reflect privately on any questions you may have pertinent to your business. We will peek at some of your work, have a little chat and get to the very bottom of what stirs your soul and fills the gaps in your business. This will be gentle but honest and a way to pin point some things that can help YOU flourish when you leave.
-A walk through of my full editing workflow from RAW to the finished images I would deliver to my client. You can bring your computer for this if you like, but it isn’t necessary.
-My full business/client workflow. I will share how I have built up my business and stood out in what seems to be a saturated market.
-Preparing for Family Sessions, Client interaction, Marketing, Session styling, Location Scouting and just about anything you would like to ask me.
-Personal sharing in regards to my own work/family unbalance haha. Honesty is everything though.
-Creative exercises to get the mind working in the most wondrous of ways.
