Recently, I experienced the most traumatic time in my life - the loss of my mama, Svetlana. Her passion for photography infected me more than 15 years ago, and together we loved sharing this creative, exciting, and fulfilling hobby. Walking around the forest, then bringing my camera along to capture my feelings, has been my healing journey through grief. My mom’s energy is with me on these walks, and I want to share this space and my time with you in the hopes that you, too, can benefit from the healing powers of the trees, community, and joy of capturing moments in this beautiful world.
Spots are limited. Reserve your walk today and reconnect with the forest—and yourself—through a lens of wonder.
