Join us on a desert

14TH-18TH OCTOBER 2024

Join us beneath the vast, starlit skies of Joshua Tree, where over four days, we'll embark on an intimate journey of couple photography, nestled within the unique beauty of the desert. This workshop is not just an opportunity to capture the enchanting landscape and the intricate dynamics of love and companionship; it's a deep dive into the artistry of photography, guided by two hosts who bring their own unique perspectives to the lens.

Set in an amazing villa that offers both comfort and inspiration, our retreat is designed for photographers eager to explore new dimensions of creativity and connection. Through a blend of hands-on sessions, personal exploration, and shared experiences, we'll explore the nuanced art of couple photography, encouraging you to see and think differently, to push boundaries, and to experiment with new techniques and ideas.

This workshop is about more than just taking pictures; it's about sharing ideas and experiences, about the synergy of collaboration, and about fostering a community of like-minded creatives. Here, in the quiet majesty of Joshua Tree, surrounded by ancient rocks and the timeless landscape, you'll find the perfect backdrop to explore both your subject and yourself.

MEET YOUR HOSTS

I'm Mari (like calamari without the cala) I'm a wedding, couple, and family photographer based in Chicago, IL and focus on the storytelling aspect of imagery along with playful movement and poetic visualization. As a former dancer and performer, using movement and prompt work is my go to in guiding clients into a natural flow. I don't consider myself a documentary photographer - while I still believe I am creating honest poetic and cinematic imagery, it is the representation of each love story I aim to tell. I am passionate about talking about my own story and how I alchemize my experiences into the art I create and how others can tap into that space as well.

Chicago Based
A Traveler Heart

Once upon a time, a famous traveler called love the greatest adventure. In my many years, I stopped by in countless foreign countries across the whole world. I visited many places, some of them as big as london, others as romantic and as lovely as italian villages. Wherever I went, I met incredible people, and the stunning observation was that, despite our evident differences, we all share one specific trait. Everyone - regardless of their origin - falls in love.
