Raising Luxury is coming to THE GREENBRIER

Raising Luxury hosts its first retreat March 11–12 at The Greenbrier Resort in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia.

In two focused days, you’ll stop guessing and start booking higher-level work—with clear strategy around communication, branding, marketing, client expectations, and what top planners actually look for before they recommend a photographer.

This is not a styled shoot.
But you will get a rare, two-hour workshop with the legendary Oberports: “Powerful Portraits.”

You’ll leave The Greenbrier with a real plan, sharper positioning, and the confidence to show up like the photographer luxury clients—and planners—trust.

That’s Raising Luxury Retreats.
In-person education for photographers ready to book events that match their talent. Industry leaders. Proven strategy. Valuable connections. Real momentum.

Investment: $1,297 with payment plans available!

This retreat is valued at over $2,400! Discounted rooms are available for students at The Greenbrier starting at $199 before taxes and fees.

  • More than photographers

    • You will learn from wedding planners, designers, photographers, and marketing experts. Instructors will educate you on what it really takes to get noticed AND recommended. Hearing different perspectives will set you apart from other photographers simply trying to impress clients with pretty pictures.

  • Not a Styled Shoot

    • Although we are not a styled shoot, we are an education and business retreat, you will receive a two-hour workshop Powerful Portraits, with legendary photography team, The Oberports. The will remind us of the value we add when we bring intentional posing and design into photography for high-end clients.

  • Discounted Rates

About The Host

Kelli has been a wedding photographer for almost 20 years and a photography educator since 2020. Before photography became her career, Kelli was a teacher and the desire to help others through education has never left.

Though I tried to create workshops and retreats on my own, the vision didn't become clear until I invited my friends. Collaboration is the key.
