Women's Weekend Photography Retreat in the Kawarthas
What: A Photography Retreat just for the ladies, at a stunning resort surrounded by nature
When: October 19 - 21, 2012
Fee: $899- all-inclusive (includes food, single-occupancy accommodation, photography instruction, and all taxes. Alcohol extra.)

The Westwind Inn offers the perfect setting for a relaxing retreat and rich photographic experience. Overlooking the lake, with gardens and hiking trails right on the property, the location inspires both creativity and a sense of inner peace. The guest rooms are cozy, all with fireplace, cedar-lined walls, antique furnishings, sitting area, private balcony, large 4 piece bathroom, air conditioning and colour television. Delicious meals are served in the Treetops Dining Room, which commands a breathtaking panoramic view over the lake.
Enjoy the fellowship of other women who share your love of photography. This retreat will give you the opportunity to immerse yourself in your photography for an entire weekend, free from the distractions of home or work. The surrounding natural beauty will allow you to relax your mind, free your creative spirit, and renew your passion for photography.
The workshop will consist of a balance of presentations and field instruction. An evaluation session on the final day will allow you to enjoy and learn from each other's images, and receive valuable feedback on your work.
My goal as your instructor is to meet you wherever you're at in your photographic journey, and to help you to develop your skills, enhance your vision, and tap into your creativity.
