 Unleash Your Inner Boss:
A CANADIAN PHOTOGRAPHY RETREAT FOR AMBITIOUS WOMEN
Are you like most photographers?
Stuck in a 9-5 you hate...
Struggling to book consistently...
Only getting ghosted or attracting budget brides who don’t value your work.
You dream of shooting epic destination elopements
but your inbox? Crickets.
Watching others live your dream?
You see photographers jet-setting and booking dream clients
but no one's covering your travel.
Your finances are tight.
And deep down, you know you’re meant for more.
You’re passionate... but stuck.
You love travel. You love photography.
But when it comes to creating a luxurious-looking portfolio? You’re overwhelmed.
Styled shoots feel impossible.
Then throw Instagram into the mix? A constant comparison spiral that fuels your imposter syndrome.
Heyyyy you beautiful soul-Â
I'M ESTHER!
I'm your host for this game-changing wedding photography retreat in breathtaking British Columbia.
With 6+ years behind the lens, I’ve built a career rooted in passion, creativity, and helping photographers like you level the heck up.
As a seasoned wedding photographer myself, I’ve been where you are — hustling, learning, and growing.
But it’s not just about snapping photos;
It's about creating an experience, both for your clients and for yourself as an artist. My mission is to guide you through every step of this journey, not just to perfect your photography portfolio, but to empower you as a business owner, a creative, and a confident woman.Â
Why am I the best host for this retreat? Because I’m not just a photographer — I’m your coach who genuinely cares about your growth. I’ve been fortunate enough to learn from some of the best in the industry, and now it’s my turn to give back by offering you the ins and the outs, strategies, and support you need to thrive in this competitive industry.Â
When I finally figured out how to scale my business and take my portfolio seriously, all of a sudden I had clients saying how they decided they had to go with me because my photos looked insane. Several mentioned how they see I travel and said that was a big factor for them as well, that I actively do this.
In a single year IÂ took 33Â flights +Â travelled to 10 different countries
Why am I telling you this? Because my deepest desire is for YOU to do the same!! (OR MORE!?)Â
This retreat isn’t just about business, it’s about building a community of like-minded women who support and uplift each other.Â
I have invested over $60,000 on my professional development.Â
This is obviously a very large investment and a big chance I took on myself, but I was so confident in a big return on investment.
Are you looking to do the same?!Â
I can't wait to welcome you to BC, where the mountains meet the ocean and the possibilities for growth are endless. Let’s make magic together!Â
Ready for the 3 best days of your CAREER?
 Now imagine this, you say YES to the opportunity of a lifetime.
Â
Not because you want a fun girls getaway, but because you are FINALLY saying YAASSSS to your dreams! You are all of a sudden going to receive the dreamy content on a platter, they get to show up and shoot
You get to arrive with a welcoming community of women, well experienced models who KNOW what to do exactly and to give that expensive face lift to your struggling portfolio.Â
This is the type of opportunity where you can literally walk straight into success, I am ready to SET YOU UP for major success by choosing well thought out locations with the most stunning scenery, hand selecting the vendorsÂ
You are going to find clarity when you come out to something that is curated with the best group of women and you feel like you can finally be yourself.Â
Now you have several SD cards that are stacked with absolute FIRE content, you cannot get those cards into your computer fast enough and get the images shared online! It’s time to DROP DA HEAT BABY!Â
The world can see your talent and you finally get the recognition you deserve because this is the type of content that has the WOW factor….
Your photos finally have people stop their scroll and think wait who took this??Â
You even utilize the social media strategies you took away from this retreat, and now you open up your email and see you got your dream inquiry for a beautiful mountain surrounded destination BECAUSE THE BRIDE SAW THESE PHOTOS FROM THIS RETREAT!!!
This would have never been possible if you didn’t say YES to yourself for once!Â

Road Map to Succeeding on Social Media take home workbookÂ
As a photography business coach myself, the most common problem I see in my students is that they have no clarity on what to do with social media. I want every single attendee from this retreat to be able to go home and know EXACTLY WHAT TO DO! No more guess work on Instagram, no more trying to just wing it and hope for the best on Tiktok. I am giving you my exact framework of what has been proven to work for REAL ORGANIC lead generation! I am giving this to every single attendee for no additional charge! Why? Because I CARE about the success of your business, not just during the retreat- but I’m here helping you and cheering you on after the retreat comes to an end!Â
Get yourself connected with the Best of BC Vendor ConnectionsÂ
Why is it crucial to get connected with vendors? I can say that when I started prioritizing networking with other vendors in the places I wanted to start booking more- it was an absolute GAME CHANGER for me! I want you to have the same success that I’ve personally seen, and the 65+ photography students I’ve personally coached. The referrals and exposure that come from vendor connections is absolutely WILD and I’ve seen attendees in the past retreats end up shooting real weddings for our past retreat models because the models loved this particular attendees' editing style + composition so much! I want the same for you!!
"Esther's approach to hosting the event was flawless. The way she presents herself during any of her events is very empowering. The venue was beautiful, the models well thought of and the diversity was amazing. Hiccups were presented in the original plan and Esther maneuvered them with poise, confidence and grace.
If you are looking at levelling up your craft all while having a great time, I would highly recommend attending one of Esther's Boss Babe Retreats.
Now for the guests, it was as easy as breathing when it comes to mingling with these ladies. Yes we were all there for our businesses, but each girl became a mentor, teacher as well as a friend. There was no cliques and everyone had something to bring to the table.Â
The venue was perfect with home like vibes for the accommodations. The staff were on top of it and the food was to die for. The vendor props were perfectly set up to suit the vibe and in all everything was perfect.
I would 100 percent recommend any of Esther's retreats or content shoots if you want to invest in your business. You will come out of it wanting more. Thank you Esther for Hosting and being the friend with a camera. I can't wait until the next one"

-Andrea Lynn NeydiniÂ
"The Boss Babe Retreat was by far my favorite and most impactful retreat I’ve attended since I started photography. Everything was well thought out and planned and while minor issues came up, Esther took care of everything with grace and flawlessly!!Â
The lodging was perfect in providing a homey environment for fun nights and spectacular views all at once while also providing a comfy environment for focus and learning.
From the beautiful models and setups to the warm welcoming environment, I feel so much more confident in my work and made new friends along the way. Everyone who attended quickly became a friend and sister who each contributed their own touch and personality and I couldn’t be more thankful for knowing a group of empowering women ready to succeed together. I couldn’t imagine not knowing any of these amazing women whom I hope to get to work with together again.Â
I 1000% recommend attending Esther’s retreats!! Her dedication to providing the best experience possible is impeccable and makes it feel just like a trip to sightsee with a touch of learning Attending her retreats will for sure leave you with knowledge that will help your business grow and succeed. I would without a doubt attend another of her retreats in the future!"
