The Ballan Photography Retreat

📍 Ballan, Victoria
🗓 21 & 22 March 2026

The Ballan Retreat is a two-day immersive photography retreat set inside a breathtaking historic Ballan property. Textured walls, wooden floors, dramatic natural light, and multiple styled rooms make this an unforgettable place to create.

This is not a fast-paced workshop environment. It’s a retreat-style experience designed for photographers who want time, space, and guidance to create cinematic, story-driven images.

The retreat includes four curated creative sessions:

• Gatsby Glamour
• Gothic & Hollywood Glamour
• Vintage Glamour
• Marie Antoinette Inspired Grunge

You can attend one session, multiple sessions, or stay for the entire retreat.
Come for a day or make a full weekend of it.

Please note priority will be offered to full retreat attendees.

What’s included

– Small groups capped at four photographers per model
Two models per session, working across separate rooms (we will have 4 professional models - line up below)
– All models, props, styling, and creative direction provided
– Hands-on tuition throughout each session

Investment

Full Retreat Pass (all 4 sessions): $950 (1 Spot Left)
