When I was in the thick of raising littles and running my business, I never had the time to do the things I wanted to do to improve or grow my business...because laundry and carpools and all the things that come with working from home snuck into all my free time.
Do you know when I could work on the things? When I got out of the house and away from all my daily tasks.
Retreats became my way of investing in myself and my business and getting the things DONE!
And that's where The Focused Path Retreat was born – so, you can get away and work on your business without all the distractions of home + get the support you need.
Photography retreats reimagined.
the ultimate girls' getaway with learning AND down time to relax
personalized, small group instruction (4-5 participants)
photos for your portfolio, website and social media
tools and skills on the topic being covered at the retreat – each retreat is on a different topic
an amazing community because there's nothing like photography besties
What you'll gain...
This isn’t just a retreat; it’s an investment in your growth, your business, and your future.
"One of the biggest takeaways for me was learning how to truly stand out in a saturated market. Natasha teaches you how to create a quality experience that your clients feel—and that sets you apart from the rest. Since the retreat, I've noticed a huge shift not only in how I run my business but also in how my clients respond."

Learning feels like a vacation!
"This retreat is a game changer for your business. You get hands on learning, direct feedback and the tools you need to grow your business. (connection with clients, pricing, social media, etc) You also get to spend time with fellow photographers who understand what it takes to grow in your craft. Natasha has a special way of making learning also feel like a vacation...it truly is the best of both worlds!"
–Denise Feagans–
Natasha is amazing and an open book!
"Natasha is amazing and an open book. I was sitting in a place of overwhelm, feeling like I had everything to do and no idea where to start, and Natasha was able to help me figure out where I really was, what I needed to get done, re-direct me so that I could quickly get a lot of it knocked out, and then help me lay out a plan to move forward."
