Evan Harris

I would absolutely recommend anyone to attend one of Evan’s events, with no caveats, such a great host

I had so much fun and felt like this content retreat was so beneficial. Evan and Aysh were wonderful hosts, 100% worth the investment. It was small, only about a half dozen of us and I loved that, nobody was competing for shots and everyone had room to be creative and get their shots. Hosts absolutely prioritized attendees over themselves and were wonderful to work with. Everyone was so considerate and meshed well, thankful for such a positive experience.

I loved how small the group was, I believe seven photographers including the hosts. I feel like when it is smaller, you get to connect with the other attendees and truly get to know each other. I stayed at the Airbnb with both hosts and two other attendees, I had so much fun with them all! We all shared our personal lives and sung 5SOS together in the car lol. We had five photoshoots and an hour education so I absolutely think the price was worth it. (2 days) The model couples were all amazing! This was my second retreat this year with Evan hosting and I will be going to another , I love him he cracks me upppp. Everyone flowed together and I feel like everyone was able to give direction for what they were wanting creatively. I loved trauma dumping with Aysh, she is so genuine and did amazing co hosting. I would love to meet up again with everyone who attended this retreat because I enjoyed everyone and their energy!!!!!! <33

I think it went really good and people should let go of that exception a little bit, that everything will go exactly to plan. Some things are out of our control completely. We had to pivot locations couple times and I am telling you, it was meant to be! Because the weather let up once we got to new location and all the spots we shot at were perfect for the concepts! I loved how completely different all of them were. I don't know about tips on improving because I feel like both days the sessions and time in between flowed and we had time to grab something to eat even with driving 1.5-2 hours to different locations, they definitely did their research when working out the schedule!! One thing I wanted to touch on was model outfits, they were all dressed like in their own clothes (while of course fitting the vibe) and truthfully I really like that. It feels more personal to them rather than everyone having their hair and makeup professionally done and fancier outfits (I just personally liked that they did their own makeup and hair how they wanted and picked outfits that were still them!)

Great price for the value of getting 4 different couples as models and 4 creative concepts.

I think it would be good to have time set aside and dedicated to do image reviewing and get to ask questions and get feedback from the host in real time. Everything was to the minute and there was not much downtime to decompress from one situation to the next. It was go-go- go! A designated lunch break would be a good time for this.

both Evan and Aysh put so much time and effort into every shoo they have, and we will be returning to any and all shoots either of them want us at in a heartbeat.

me and my sweetheart modeled for the last night of this retreat, and we had SO MUCH FUN! Everyone there was so sweet and caring the whole time. Everyone knew exactly when to hype us up. I can't wait to see the results from ALL the shoots done on this retreat (as well as our own!) and I can't wait to see the amazing things both Evan and Aysh plan in the future.

turn the heater up in the place next time HAHA

I attended Forever Yours, LA hosted by Evan Harris and had a genuinely wonderful experience. I’ve attended and worked alongside Evan prior to this event as well, and one thing that has always consistently stood out is how important inclusivity and creating a safe environment is to him. This content day was thoughtfully planned and creatively inspiring from start to finish. The concepts matched the mood boards beautifully, communication was clear, and the atmosphere throughout the day was welcoming and supportive. As a queer photographer, I felt completely safe, respected, and comfortable being myself. Evan is a strong ally to the LGBTQ+ community, and it genuinely showed in the way everyone was treated with kindness and respect. The experience was collaborative, uplifting, and absolutely worth the investment. I would 1000000% recommend attending a retreat or content day hosted by Evan.

I had a wonderful time, it was my first retreat / content day and I had so much fun. We had four shoots in one day and they were all really fun concepts! I had a great time and I am attending another one of Evan’s content days next week because I had such a wonderful time!

This is a great way to meet other creatives and learn from one another! Highly recommend!

I love the hosts, I love the community of people they brought in. Only slight feedback is having less people. But everything else went smooth and well! No other issues and it is definitely a fun experience!

Evan and Macayla were truly a joy to work with, and the concept that I attended was magical and made me feel like I’d been gifted a dozen new friends. :)

KEEP BEING YOU!

An amazing group of photographers, and super friendly. The day was organized with a TON of options for content and really really fun!

I recently attended a retreat in Seattle and overall, it was a really good experience. The hosts created a space that felt creative, collaborative, and genuinely inspiring. There was a lot of intention behind the concepts, and it was clear they care about giving photographers an environment where they can create and connect.

One thing I do want to clarify, because I know it can sometimes be misunderstood, is that when it comes to the models, the hosts are typically the ones selecting wardrobe and overall styling. That’s pretty standard for retreats like this, and it helps keep the vision cohesive across each shoot. It wasn’t about the models choosing their looks, but rather the hosts curating everything to fit the concept.

The variety of setups and the opportunity to shoot in a new location made it especially worth it. It felt like a great mix of learning, creating, and just being around other people who love the same things.

The main areas for improvement would be organization and being a bit more prepared the day of. There were moments where things felt slightly unstructured or rushed, which could be smoothed out with a more detailed plan or timeline in place ahead of time.

I would also recommend limiting the number of tickets sold to keep the experience more intimate and less crowded. That would allow everyone more time and space to shoot, and ultimately walk away with more of the photos they’re hoping for.

That being said, this was his first retreat, so a few kinks were expected. It didn’t take away from the overall experience, and it just feels like something that will naturally improve as he continues hosting.

Overall, it was a positive experience, and I’m excited to see how he grows and refines things moving forward.

Styled shoot have been such a blessing in and crucial part in my personal business growth. Don’t skip out on them!

It was such a gorgeous day and everything was so beautiful!
For the price, i wish there was more vendors involved to connect with ! Makeup artists, dress rentals, hair stylist, etc!
Overall it was great content and I’d return to another styled shoot!

You will feel completely comfortable attending any of Evan’s concept shoots.

Nope, Evan is amazing!

Evan is fantastic. Great models, good vibes, learned a lot, laughed a lot, got great content.
