Fresh off our Palm Springs retreat, we’re breaking down everything that made it unforgettable — from building real connections between planners and photographers to creating a new standard for styled education and content.
In this episode, Raquel and Alex share behind-the-scenes stories from the retreat, the lessons that came out of the roundhouse discussions, and Elise Morgan’s perspective on how to strengthen relationships between planners, photographers, and videographers.
We also dive into practical tools for creatives: • How to approach planners and venues with intention (not cold DMs). • How to warm up your leads and convert more inquiries into bookings. • The sales techniques that are actually working — from voice notes and Loom videos to quick follow-ups and vibe-check calls. • How to stop procrastinating and start building momentum now.
We’re also announcing our next La Perle Retreat at Solage Calistoga in Napa Valley and a special Black Friday Legacy offer for new members.
Listen in for honest insights, strategy, and inspiration for creatives ready to grow in community — not competition.
