The Inspired by Light Retreat is a 4 days, 3 nights hands on learning and bonding experience held on Prince Edward Island; one of the most picturesque places in Canada.

This very intimate retreat will be the perfect place to unveil your struggles, tap into your creativity and connect with like minded beings.

Mark your calendar for July 31st-August 3rd, 2024. I can’t wait hang with you on the east coast. KBxox

You want to know a secret? Over the last 11 years I've grown the most as a photographer after attending in person workshops. Now I want YOU to do the same!

the details

I’ve rented the most charming oceanfront house that’s located on 1.5 acres of pure bliss. It will be the perfect place for us to work, play and relax together.

You’ll want to arrive on July 31st, ideally before 1:00pm as I plan to hold our first shoot and a welcome dinner that evening. We will say our goodbyes late morning on August 3rd. If you are coming in from the airport, we will try and coordinate flights with the other attendees, that way a pickup and drop off can be better arranged.

I’ll have 3 sunset/sunrise styled shoots planned for us. These will be for you to learn about how I prompt, pose, light, connect with and guide my clients, all the while shooting yourself to add some show stopping images to your portfolio. 

Back at our home base, I’ll teach you everything that I have learned to get to where I am today, which is running a six figure photography business and feeling as if I’ve never worked a day in my life. This will include how I edit, style, market, manage my business and prepare my clients for their shoot with me. I’ll answer all of your burning questions.

We will have time set aside for group activities like hiking, beach combing, campfires and some well deserved suntanning (with a some beverages of course!). You might also want to take advantage of the property we will be staying on and set up a shoot of your own!
