Glacier National Park Retreat | 28th July- 1st August 2026
📸 Simply Art Photography Retreat: Glacier National Park, Montana – July 28th- August 1st 2026
After the incredible success of our retreats in Tuscany, Bali, Western Australia and the Caribbean, we are beyond thrilled to announce our next Simply Art photography retreat destination — Glacier National Park, Montana!
Famous for its sweeping alpine landscapes, turquoise lakes, wildflower meadows, and dramatic mountain ranges, Glacier is one of the most breathtaking places in the United States — and the perfect setting for a transformative creative experience.
We’ll be staying in a beautiful luxury lodge near the park, surrounded by soaring pines, crisp mountain air, and uninterrupted views that feel like stepping into a postcard. Think warm timber interiors, spacious gathering areas, outdoor hot tubs, and serene spaces designed for both relaxation and inspiration.
As always, your accommodation, breakfast, lunch, and drinks at the lodge and transportation to and from all shoots are included.
All you need to do is book your flights and prepare for an unforgettable adventure in one of America’s most iconic national parks!
🌿 This retreat will dive into personal branding, business development, and hands-on creative growth, featuring a series of extraordinary styled sessions across Glacier’s most stunning locations — dramatic mountain vistas, lakeside shores, golden fields at sunset, and intimate forest clearings.
🌿 This retreat will also include a lifestyle, unposed newborn session, giving you the opportunity to expand your portfolio with soft, emotive, natural images in a beautiful and authentic setting.
When we're not shooting or learning, you’ll have time to wander and unwind — explore the park, enjoy scenic overlooks, visit charming local towns, or simply relax at the lodge surrounded by new friends who share your passion and drive.
This experience is designed to elevate both your artistry and your business, offering a blend of high-level education and soul-stirring adventure you won’t find anywhere else.
