A much needed weekend of CAMARADERIE and creativity


The desert landscape of Joshua Tree is breathtakingly beautiful, and it is no wonder that it has become a popular destination for photographers. Recently, five photographers decided to meet up in Joshua Tree for a photo retreat. These women, myself included, who came from different parts of the country, shared a passion for photography and were excited to spend time exploring the desert and capturing its beauty through their lenses.


Over the course of the next few days, our group explored Joshua Tree National Park and its surroundings, capturing the unique beauty of the desert landscape. We photographed the iconic Joshua trees, the colorful rock formations, and the vast expanse of the open desert. Each photographer had a unique perspective and style, and it was inspiring to see how they approached the same subjects in different ways.


But it wasn't just about capturing the landscape. We also spent time photographing each other, taking turns modeling and capturing each other's unique personalities and styles. We experimented with different lighting and poses, and it was a great opportunity for us to learn from each other and grow as photographers.


In the evenings, we gathered around the fire pit, sipping wine and sharing stories. We talked about our inspirations, our struggles, and our goals as photographers. We bonded over their shared love of photography and the natural beauty of Joshua Tree.


As the photo retreat came to an end, we reflected on the amazing experience we had shared. We had captured stunning photographs, learned from each other, and formed meaningful connections. We left Joshua Tree feeling inspired and reinvigorated, ready to continue pursuing their passion for photography. It was a reminder of the power of art to bring people together and inspire creativity.
