I’m back in the office after an AWESOME ‘workcation’ with some amazing boss ladies!! Last year, 9 of us local creative entrepreneurs rented a beach house in Ocean View, Norfolk for our first workcation together. This year, there were 11 of us! Days and nights were filled with working on our businesses, masterminding, joking & laughing like hyenas, playing games, taking headshots, taking time to relax, drinking wine and eating a TON of food haha. I loved all of these ladies before workcation but feel SO much closer to them now. I don’t know what I’d do without these women! Here’s a recap of our fun weekend together!
Our ONLY formal group pic we took together and we’re still missing Alison haha! She had to run out on a business errand (like I said, boss ladies)!

(not pictured)
Working together, sharing ideas and getting feedback is one of the best parts of workcation!
And wine lol… I think I had half a glass the whole weekend, ya’ll know I don’t drink LOL. Does me putting white grape juice in a wine glass count? Christina is so cute haha!
Andddddd ALL THE DIPS…
And the games. Okay I lied, everything is the best thing about workcation haha! The next few images are from a game of ‘Heads Up’. It got pretty wild (hence why some of the pics are out of focus LOL).
We got up early on day 2, worked some more and took some headshots!
Here’s a little behind the scenes! Crop in tight to avoid the messy area and reflect the window light with a white towel!
In a tight space you have fit to in where you can!
We headed to the beach during golden hour. The light was SO beautiful!
The phrase “organized chaos” pretty much defines our weekend!
Christina shot so many headshots! Girl is a beast with that 70-200 lens!
We had to get another ‘Wolfpack’ pic since did an entire Wolfpack photoshoot last fall! My people <3
Love my Crystal! <3
Emily has the sweetest heart!
Liz took some test shots on her camera (timer) and caught us looking cray!
Much better!
We had to recreate this pose from the first workcation. See last year’s recap here!
WE HIRED A PRIVATE CHEF!!! A four course meal including sushi for dayssssss. This was the best idea ever. And he cleaned up the kitchen afterwards. We were in heaven.
My people. I love them so much! Cheers to a perfect workcation. It was so good for the soul and I’m blessed to do life with these ladies. Counting down to next year!
