Behind the Session - Luxury Retreat Photo + Video in Maine

Retreat Magick captured at Windhambrae Estate with Cait Scudder

There are moments in this work that feel like something more than a brand shoot, more than an event. More like witnessing a rebirth.

Capturing The Homecoming Retreat in October 2024, hosted by Cait Scudder at her private Windhambrae Estate in Maine, was exactly that. A weekend immersion that blended deep nervous system healing with luxury-level business expansion, this retreat was a portal for every single woman present, and for the work I was invited to create inside, and after it.

A Luxury Business Retreat Rooted in Healing, Power & Sisterhood

Set on 12 sacred acres, Windhambrae is the kind of place that meets you at the soul level. Every inch of Cait’s estate is crafted with intentionality: from the winding pathways and sacred grotto, from the bell tent ceremony space to the way the sun filters through the trees in the late afternoon.

Over the course of the retreat, I witnessed women release what they’d carried for years and rise into their leadership like never before.

We moved through rage ceremonies, soul-stirring breathwork, and game-changing business coaching circles that were equal parts strategy and spirit. Women arrived powerful and left unmissable.

What Was Captured

This wasn’t just documentation. It was a living, breathing visual ecosystem designed to match the depth, luxury, and magnitude of the experience itself.

From same-day photo previews to multiple cinematic storytelling edits, I created a gallery of hundreds of curated photo and video assets that reflected the power of Cait’s Homecoming Retreat experience in real-time. The final collection included:

• Attendee testimonial videos that captured raw, magnetic reflections

• Cinematic teaser edits designed to promote and sell out future retreats

• A complete photo + video library that Cait now uses across multiple six and seven-figure launches, websites, and social media channels

This body of work wasn’t created just to remember the retreat, but to expand its reach, elevate the brand, and ripple out the impact for months (and years) to come.

The Ripple Effect

Cait has since used this content to:

• Sell out her mastermind, The Millionaire Mother Experience (MME)

• Fill spots for Homecoming 2025 with ease

• Build new brand visuals for multiple businesses

• Deepen trust, connection, and resonance across her community

And in her own words:

“I’ve worked with dozens of photographers and videographers to build my multi 7-figure business and Monica takes the cake. Her technical skill, exquisite eye, and unmatched ability to turn your essence into art is a gift as healing and powerful as it is lucrative and brand-building. If you’re ready to see yourself and have the world see you in your truest gifts and magic, hire Monica. It’s an investment that will pay for itself, in every way imaginable, 100 times over.”
