I left the retreat feeling inspired and energised." Kate Ainger
"I'm so glad I booked the full retreat to completely immerse myself in the whole experience. I wouldn't have wanted to miss any of it! I loved the community feel of staying together in our shared house. Thank you for making me feel welcome.
It was really inspiring and also so much fun! I've come home from the experience feeling refreshed, inspired and keen to try new things and break away a little from what I usually do. Thank you for pushing me out of my comfort zone and believing in me." Louise Harmston

Meet Your Instructors
Hi! I'm Bex, an excitable soul, obsessed with colour, creativity, books and movies.
I've been a photographer for over 15 years, developing my skills in nature and landscape photography where I grew up in Scotland to now running a successful brand photography business on the south east coast of England.
My popular online course, Storytelling For Brands received rave reviews at Click Photo School and I've written various articles for magazines and blogs.
In 2020, I founded This Detailed Life, an international photography magazine. As Editor-in-Chief & Creative Director, with my team, I cultivated a wonderful and inspiring community of photographers and look forward to spreading that welcoming vibe into Camera Chameleons with Natalie.
Hi! I'm Natalie, I'm originally from the UK and living in Dubai since 2010.
I've built a successful Dubai-based family photography business as well as running my course ‘Fused: a guide to double exposures’ and as one half of The Photo Club UAE, designing, developing and delivering photography workshops and photo walks.
I don't sit still for long and invest a lot of time in working towards diversifying my photography business. I am super excited to be launching a retreat - something that has been on my bucket list for years!
I'm Mama to kids aged 15, 12 and 10 who keep me super-busy when I'm not shooting, editing or mentoring other photographers. I love my beagles, breakfast of any kind and my happy places are the mountains and the beach at sunset. I regularly get itchy feet for traveling somewhere new.
We are passionate about sharing our knowledge and skills to empower fellow photographers and business owners.
