Join Leah Kelley Photography in New York City on July 9-12 for three full days of styled shoots, adventure, good food, and even better community. We'll meet at our headquarters — a Manhattan townhouse one block from Central Park before venturing into the city for four (yes, four!) styled sessions. You can also prepare for two deep dive workshop sessions that deal with common hot topics for photographers in the wedding and lifestyle industries.

But we do things a little differently around here. Forget your previous experiences with styled shoots...the fighting for a spot, the crowd of girls with cameras. We keep groups small (there are only 9 tickets total available!) so everyone has their moment to shine. Not only are our attendees photographers and small business owners, they're also your future best friends. We pride ourselves on being a community that prefers kindness and encouragement over hustling and competition, so you'll instantly feel safe and at-home.

So...what's included?

-3 nights in a Manhattan townhouse (shared rooms with other lady attendees)
- 4 styled shoots (portrait, engagement, and bridal)
-2 workshop sessions
-Fantastic community and planned outings in the Big Apple
-Access to a private FB group for photographers

What's not included?
-Meals (though we do provide breakfast snacks!)
-Transportation (flights, taxis, subway cards, etc.)

Arrival: Anytime on July 9, 2024. Leah and her team will be there to welcome you! If you arrive early, you're welcome to drop off your bags at the townhouse and relax, or go out and explore the city. The events don't officially start until dinnertime on July 9.
Departure: You're welcome to leave anytime on July 12, though we'll be ending the retreat with a nice breakfast at a local spot. Our checkout is 11 AM.
