SANTA FE & TAOS VISION RETREAT, October 8 - 17, 2026.

$500.00

A $500 deposit will reserve your space. Balance of $7900 will be payable in two future installments for a total of $8400.

This 10-day experience, allowing us to walk in the footsteps of Georgia O’Keeffe, far exceeds a typical full-immersion photo workshop. It is a true Visual Retreat offering a  deep dive into the personal, emotional, and passionate pull photography has on us all. It will accelerate your creative journey, and help you find images that are beyond beautiful, compelling, and unique. It will open your eyes to what lies deep within you, and will elevate your creativity and your confidence. PLUS there is an optional pre-trip extension to photograph at the Annual International Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta!

IN THE HIGH DESERT OF NORTHERN NEW MEXICO LIES THE COMPELLING AND ENCHANTING LAND THAT BECAME HOME TO THE FAMOUS PAINTER GEORGIA O’KEEFFE.

She was married to world renowned photographer Alfred Stieglitz, and their connection forged a seamless path between art and photography. That path has paved the way for many of us to explore the creative bond that bridges those two disciplines.

The stark beauty of this part of the American West grabs the soul like few other places on earth. The mountains and sandstone formations, shaped by wind and water, work their way into your very being.

The quiet solitude soothes the soul and calms the mind.

Now, for the first time, join me on a VISION RETREAT to find your deepest creative core, and elevate your photography to a much higher level. This is an experience and an adventure not to be missed!
