“The lectures, panels and reviews at Chico Hot Springs offered an inspiring week of sharing among like-minded photographers, collectively possessing wildly diverse and complex approaches to our medium. The atmosphere was relaxed yet invigorating, fostering a most generous and lively spirit among colleagues and participants. I would highly recommend it!”

“Incredible reviewers and reviewees in one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever had the chance to spend a couple of days. I don’t think there’s a better location for that kind of event, and Jesse and Lindsay’s passion and energy made it perfect. It was a privilege to discover so much good work in such a great environment.”

“If there’s such a thing as photography heaven, this is it. It was a real privilege to be among so many wonderful artists - and I mean both the reviewers and the attendees. And to spend time together not just in structured reviews, but in spirited conversations over meals or drinks, or hiking or exploring or enjoying the hot spring. The spirit of camaraderie was amazing; many new friendships were made and many old ones renewed and refreshed. And of course, the Paradise Valley is almost literally heaven. ”
