In its seventh year, this retreat emphasizes a mental and spiritual connection with photography. Take a break from the rapid pace of life and enjoy photography in a more thoughtful way.

From beginners to professionals, photographers at all levels of experience will learn new ways of approaching their art.

Students pick one instructor to study with for the entire week. Class size is limited to allow for individual instruction.

Evening programs on topics such as Photoshop are planned for conference-wide participation, allowing students to learn from other instructors.
