feel inspired and confident at every session
Increase revenue in your photography business
attract your dream clients
What if you could ...
I've been a professional photographer for 9 years, and spent the first 5 years in a state of perpetual burnout. Always chasing, pushing, reaching, and striving - until I shifted my mindset to create a business that fit AROUND my life, instead of a business that WAS my life, and watched in awe as my entire life shifted into attracting, receiving, and trusting. Now I've spent the last 4 years mentoring other photographers on how they can create an abundant business focused on sustainable work-life balance - how to ROOT, so you can RISE.
What if I told you - you don't have to choose between an abundant career and a slow, present, joy-filled life?
all while working less, and playing more

Breanne
"She uplifted me, empowered me, and loved on me through all of my self doubt. She helped me get clear on my vision of where I wanted to go, then helped develop a clear road map on how to get there! She doesn’t leave a single question unanswered. She gave me the confidence I needed and I left feeling like i could conquer anything."
"Kaylyn not only transformed my business, but my life!!!"
Maiya
"Spending time with Kaylyn on the Sunshine Coast felt like coming up for air and inhaling that first breath after being underwater for a long time. It was the best decision I ever made for my business, my wellness and the way that I approach my photography. I would 1000% recommend any workshop, retreat, or mentorship that Kaylyn puts on because it’ll be so completely full of heart, inspiration, and rest."
"the best decision I ever made for my business, and my wellness"
Sara
"I struggled with business burnout, social anxiety, lack of confidence, and depressive habits. Her energy is phenomenal at creating a warm and inviting space for my rawest emotions. She helped me identify pain points head on with flowing conversations filled with empathy and understanding. She caught on to even the little things I needed; then provided gentle tools and suggested habits to introduce healing and that’s where the magic really happened. She was, and is, my constant rock as we peel back layers I hesitate to even share with my closest family and friends."
"Kaylyn helped me find my best self from the inside out."
Shelby
"Kaylyn is sunshine in human form. I’ve done both her photography mentorship and her coaching program and she truly helped change my life and my business. She provided support, her wealth of knowledge and a safe space to be real. She shares everything so authentically. I am eternally grateful for all that I have learned from her."
"I am eternally grateful"
Jesse
"Kaylyn taught me everything from how to start my own photography journey, to how to attract my dream clients, to camera settings, to editing, to social media marketing, to how to bring out candid emotion. I can honestly say my mentor session with her changed my life. She taught me how to be more present. She taught me the importance of journaling and self reflection. She was so positive, and motivational. Fuelling me up every step of the way. Truly I have never ever met anyone like her... She has become my best friend.
"my mentor session changed my life"
I'm a goofball with a big smile who loves to laugh, travel, explore and CONNECT.
Along with my partner Darren and my two hilarious little mini-me's Cohen + Isla, I live on the ocean in the rural community of Pender Harbour, BC.
On my days off you’ll usually find me building a beach fire with the kids, hiking and playing in the forest trails near our home, or escaping cell service and exploring dirt roads.
I'm here to guide you back to a deep remembrance of who you are, what you want, and what lights you up. I hold sacred space for you to integrate and embody the beautiful, unique, magnetic soul you truly are. All of you is welcome here, and I look forward to welcoming you both into my home, and home to the seat of belonging that is always within you.

Hi, I'm Kaylyn!
Your mentor and new bestie.
5. is this a women's only retreat?
4. how do payments work?
3. are meals included?
2. What are the accommodation arrangements like?
1. how many attendees will there be?
This is an extremely intimate retreat with 6-8 attendees (+ myself + my assistant.) We intentionally designed this container so that each attendee will have time to share, to be witnessed, and to be held and supported both in group activities and individually through the week.
As this retreat is taking place on our property, everyone is invited to bring their own camping gear and camp together on site, with use of the bathroom, shower, kitchen, and all amenities in our home. Camping gear is not included. If you wish to stay off-site, booking your own airbnb/accommodations and joining us for the retreat days, you are welcome to do so.
2 nourishing catered dinners will be provided, and on the 3rd night we will have a celebratory dinner out at a local restaurant. Breakfasts and lunches are not included. You will have access to a bbq and full kitchen with a fridge for your meals + snacks throughout the retreat.
An initial booking retainer of $650 is required to book your spot. The remaining balance is due 7 days before the retreat. (August 22, 2023) All payments made are non-refundable. If you are unable to attend your ticket will become transferrable to another attendee.
While this is a women's retreat, my partner Darren will generously be helping me with some of the behind-the-scenes coordinating, and will be on the property during the retreat, while also respecting the privacy of the retreat and giving us our space. Since you know and love me, I have a strong feeling you'll love him too - he's pretty freaking incredible. With that said, I completely respect and trust your decision on whether this retreat feels aligned for you!
