Creative Photography Retreat

Retreat to historic Rockport, Texas, with Kathy Adams Clark to explore and grow your creative side.

Discussions led by Kathy will help explore the individual creative style.

This is a chance to watch and share as photographers create abstract images, realistic images, or photos that tell a story. This is an opportunity to watch and learn from others about capturing, processing, and presenting photos. No competition -- just sharing and learning.

Lodging on your own at any of the wonderful locations in Rockport.

TBA -- Limited to 10 people

Comments From Participants

That time at Block Creek with you and Jays is still my very favorite workshop experience. You are not only a great teacher, you are just a fun person to spend time with. I really enjoy being with you.

I had a blast and can't wait to do more trips.

We really enjoyed the trip. You were helpful with all things photographic, both shooting and processing. If anything, I probably should have asked for more help. Additionally, your insights into flora and fauna were especially appreciated.

It was awesome to be with Kathy Adams Clark, and others at Block Creek Natural Area on this adventure -- to see so many wonderful birds and have an expert photography instructor help up learn, improve, and capture amazing images.
