"An
amazing week that I will never forget.
I feel so creatively replenished, and
I'm going home with a whole new body
of beautiful work. Every day we were
presented with authentic Hawaiian experiences
and opportunities to photograph so many
magical places on the island. It was
so much more than I could have even expected." ---Alba
Wejebe
"Thank
you so very much for the best work/retreat experience I
have ever had...it was truly wonderful. You created
an environment that I felt safe to do what I love doing.
For the first time in my life, I left calling myself
an artist...I had never referred to myself as an "artist" before last
week." ---Barbara Bond
"I have learned more in one week in Kathleen's Retreat than I have learned in years of photography classes. A wonderful experience to be in a gorgeous tropical setting and have supportive and knowledgable guidance." -- Liza Brown
