“The Retreat content was exceptional. I loved that Sophie led by discussing a certain mindset rather than the technical aspects of a shoot. I found that both her message & her method of delivery really resonated with me. During the shoot she demonstrated a perfect combination of presence, calm & warmth and gently remained in control at all times. It was incredible to watch her workflow and I absolutely loved that she pared it right back to something that could be reproduced anywhere.”

“Photography is a challenge but the biggest challenge is finding someone to support us throughout our journey, we don’t come across photographers that often. You made me feel supported, encouraged and most importantly I left feeling extremely motivated to keep doing this.”

“I left the retreat feeling deserving and inspired! Perhaps my favourite part of all, was Sophie reminded us that wanting more, as scary as it can sometimes feel, is actually really exciting and perfect stepping stone for growth. The retreat was a beautiful place to explore these feelings and I am so excited to watch my business grow over the next year. Without a doubt, I absolutely know that Sophie is rooting for us all!”

“Sophie's gifts extend far beyond her photography skills. a successful self-made business woman - so admirable. she is a natural leader and educator and has a gift with words and delivering messages. her simple words in this simple session gave me the simple steps to grow something that I value, something that I treasure, that is my passion, and she really truly reignited me to keep on keeping on.”

“The workshop was the perfect mix of shooting and talking. There were so many moments where it just clicked for me. Especially mistaking boring for consistency. I have taken a lot of personal development away from listening to Sophie. The confidence and selling the experience were huge for me, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Simplicity is everything and I have been trying to move in this direction for around 2 years now and always fell back into trying to create something new everytime, the workflow has just opened my eyes and helped the session flow so much better and I feel like I now have that consistency in my work.”

“I honestly don’t think I could put into words just how incredible Sophie’s Newborn Retreat was. From the moment I arrived, to the moment I left, I felt welcomed, felt warmth and felt extremely lucky to be there. To be in Sophie’s presence. Be around her energy and kindness was just beautiful. To listen to her speak, watch her work and be able to pick her brain at what makes her an incredibly successful photographer was priceless. Leaving the retreat, I felt inspired and motivated to go out and achieve those goals and dreams that I seemed to constantly push back because of uncertainty and self doubt. Sophie’s genuine approach to making you realise that you need to trust and believe in yourself is not an attribute that many have.”

“Little did I know that I would not only be learning so much from Sophie, but from all the other women I was surrounded by. It was honestly the most amazing, uplifting, life changing experience I have ever had. I loved that we stayed together over the three days. That we ate our meals together and that we had the chance to talk and get to know each other. It’s through these moments that I was able to feel confident and comfortable in speaking up and asking questions, chatting to everyone about my business, my goals, my struggles. Thank you for providing this space for me to do this. I have walked away from this retreat with confidence, drive and ownership of my business. I’m ready to propel my business to the next level, without hesitation or fear. I’ve also walked away with lifelong friends and beautiful connections with some amazingly talented, kind and strong women. It was such an honour to apart of this experience and something I will never forget.”
