Monterey Peninsula Photography Retreat

written by Rebecca E. Parsons

Monterey Spiritual Photography Retreat with Catherine Just

Creative Unfolding

Take Refuge by the Sea

Unending Visual Beauty

Catherine Just , an Award Winning Photographer, is hosting a photography retreat on the beautiful Monterey Peninsula of Oregon Sept. 29- Oct. 3, 2010. For 4 nights and 3 full days, you will be led to combine spiritual practice with photography for more mindful image-making through a deeper understanding of ourselves. Through meditation, journaling, discussion, camaraderie, photography exercises and connection with nature, we find our way back to the essence of who we are with clarity and lack of judgment.

Photography Retreat in Oregon

“What happens when you allow yourself the time to dive deep into your creativity? What if you mix it with a gorgeous seaside retreat center, a group of fabulous like-minded people, tea, meditation, journaling, discussion, and mindful photography? Grab your camera and let’s find out! All levels of photography are welcome.”

Escape our technical world and re-focus your attention on your most authentic and creative self! Allow your senses to ignite from the breathtaking beauty of the Monterey Peninsula coastline. Invite the peace, quietude and meditative environment of Asilimar into your soul to help guide you back to your true authentic voice. Connect with other creative souls on a similar journey back to heartfelt expression. We invite you to join award-winning photographer Catherine Just on this travel photography workshop and spiritual retreat.

Retreat Summary PDF

Catherine studied the self portrait through photography at art school.
“It felt like I was learning how to speak and photography was my voice….I also worked with Miguel Ruiz (author of the Four Agreements ) as my spiritual teacher for 5 years and helped him organize and run his power journey’s so the spiritual element is incorporated into the retreats.”

“My goal now is to provide opportunities for myself and other photographers to
come back to center and find authenticity in our creativity…by looking through
the camera and listening to our hearts.”

Spread your creative wings. Space is limited, so please visit the retreat website for more information or to register.
