TWO DAY RETREAT
INDULGE IN TWO FULL DAYS OF PHOTOGRAPHIC ACTIVITIES AND WORKSHOPS TAILORED TO SUIT YOUR CREATIVE NEEDS.
Ripiro Beach, (two and a half hours north of Auckland) is such a wonderful place that it really is worth staying out here and experiencing the sound of the ocean and the big skies. Our clifftop property has magnificent views and a feel of being in the wild and at one with nature. You have your own private cabin with ensuite bathroom. Wifi available. Home cooked meals (DF and GF available) are included.

Beginner and advanced photographers are welcome! Outings and activities are arranged to suit your preferences and needs.
We also work around the changing light and tides.
Before you come to the workshop we discuss your skills and what you are wanting to learn during the weekend. You are given a list of possibilities to chose from ..... you might want to work on pushing your creativity with the camera, improve your post processing or work on basic camera skills. We do all of this while exploring this fabulous spot in Northland !
If you are more adventurous climbing the dunes, a 4x4 trip down the beach to Pouto or up the beach to Manganui bluff are fun to do.
As we have no light pollution, on clear calm nights shooting the stars from your cabin deck is also an activity we do.
We do a mix of outdoor and indoor photographic activities :
A Dawn beach shoot / Sunset from the clifftops / Taking time to shoot the ‘Little Lovelies’ life presents us – slowing our minds down and finding the magic around us!
Creativity with Intentional Camera Movement– how to lose your inhibitions, break all the rules and fall in love with your camera!
Creativity with Photoshop – How to follow through and give your images that extra ‘something special.’
‘Nurturing the Flame’ – how to keep creativity alive (studio session).
‘Why we need to do competitions and how to get the best out of them’ (studio session)
TIMETABLE:
Arrival 6pm - Evening session – Photoshoot or inspirational session.
Day one – Full day activities and evening photoshoot or inspirational evening.

If you think this two day retreat is a possibility for YOU this year, feel free to contact me and chat about it.
I`m flexible with the timing of it and am happy to do weekends or during the week.
