Discover our 2027 Photography Workshops & Retreats
Now Open for Registration
For those who seek more than sightseeing, these immersive journeys offer deep connection with people,
places, and cultures. These are not conventional photo tours, but thoughtfully crafted journeys built on trusted local relationships and rare access that I have developed over many years. Each day blends authentic local experiences with creative reflection to inspire joy, learning, and profound creative growth.
UNIQUE EXPERIENCES
Step beyond the typical tourist lens and experience places with a depth and access few workshops can offer.
Time spent with locals, artists, monks, musicians, farmers, families, and communities creates opportunities for genuine connection and insight into daily life and culture.
REGIONAL CUISINE & COMFORT
Savor healthy, delicious meals reflecting local flavors. I believe great food is one of the best ways to experience a culture.
Travel in comfort and style while staying in exceptional properties chosen for luxury, elegance, character, and charm. Minimal hotel changes — and sometimes none at all — allow you to settle in, immerse fully, and experience a place more deeply.
EXPERT GUIDANCE & SEAMLESS TRAVEL
Each workshop is designed with great care and personal attention, so guests feel genuinely supported — not only in their photography, but throughout every aspect of the experience.
I return often to these places, working closely with trusted local collaborators while personally designing and leading every workshop myself.
Join us in 2027 for a journey that is as much about heart, curiosity, and connection as it is about photography.
"I've taken many other photography trips, but Catherine's are in a league of their own. The extraordinary people and places she provides access to make for a truly once-in-a-lifetime experience. She's a wonderful teacher and knows how to build confidence while helping you hone your skills no matter what level photographer you are." - Workshop Guest, 2024

This is the crown jewel of all my photography workshops.
