Created by a photographer
for other busy photographers.
If we haven't met yet, I'm Lisa!
When I first got started, I so badly wanted to learn from others. But I couldn't take time away from my family (and business) to travel to in-person events.
Plus...I found my brain could only absorb so much info before what I'm learning goes in one ear and out the other!
Can you relate?
That's exactly why I created the {online} retreat experiences.
So MORE people can enjoy the energy and inspiration that comes from an in-person event (without having to travel!)
Over 24,000 students have experienced our online retreats + classes...
will you be next?
With such a wide variety of talent joining us this year to teach, we don’t just get to witness how one person works; we get to see the process from a variety of different photographers.
Because there isn't just ONE way to run a business
(and for that I'm grateful!)
