I'm no stranger to shooting on the beach which is why I love hosting in costal areas and Charleston has been at the top of my list for a while. The historic downtown area coupled with nearby Folly Beach, makes this the perfect place for some amazing styled shoots. Get ready to channel your inner "pogue" as we explore the Outerbanks!

Option to arrive early (check-in 4pm)
Hang out and go to dinner in Downtown Charleston
Your ticket includes lodging, breakfast and snacks (Thursday - Sunday) and lunch and dinner on Saturday. Attendees are responsible for lunch and dinner on Thursday and Friday and transportation to/from the Airbnb. Transpiration will be provided to and from the styled shoots. However, you are welcome to drive yourself.
$500 retainer is due to reserve your spot - the remaining amount can be paid over the next 8 months.
The closest airport is the Charleston (CHS) Airport. Other nearby airports include Myrtle Beach (MYR) (86 miles), Savannah (SAV) (87.2 miles) and Columbia (CAE) (106.8 miles).
Yes! You are more than welcome to stay at your own home. Please note, there is no discount for staying elsewhere.
How can i get from the airport to the airbnb?
Uber and Lyft are both available in this area. Because the airport is so close to the Airbnb, and I will be providing transportation to and from the shoots, I do not recommend that you rent a car, save your money!
what if I don't know anyone?
I get it, it can be scary and intimidating to attend an event like this. I (Sarah - the most paranoid person in the world) attended my first overnight out-of-town photography event at the age of 25. I didn't know a soul. I flew from Fort Myers, Florida to Palm Springs California, rented a car, roomed with a 47 year old woman I met in the event's Facebook group, and then drove over to the coast and flew out of LAX on Super Bowl Weekend (while the Super Bowl was being hosted in LA). If I can do that, you can do this! Plus you have something I didn't have, a friend (ME!) here to help you the entire way.
Can I Make Payments?
Yes! After the retainer has been paid, the remaining amount can be paid in equal increments. You can also pay in full or with Afterpay if you would like to.
Feel free to reach out to me (Sarah) on socials (linked above) with any questions you may have.
I am here for you!
If you’re on the fence about whether you should attend a workshop or not, I highly encourage you to just go for it! You’ve got nothing to lose but SO much to gain! Sarah will be the best host, and biggest supporter walking right alongside you!"
