Catherine Just’s Story:

Catherine Just

Catherine Just is an award winning, published photographer gracing the cover of National Geographic Magazine and inside Oprah.com. You can also find her photography inside Photo District News Magazine, Inside Weddings Magazine, Miguelruiz.com and her writing inside dowhatyouloveforlife.com and Guiding Light photography.

Catherine was voted one of the best wedding photographers in the country by earning a spot in the “Top Knots” photography competition sponsored by Photo District News in 2005, and again in 2006. Since then she has been showing her work around the country. She also leads an online Soul*Full eCourse and leads Soul*Full photography Retreats around the world.

Catherine combines her photography experience with her personal transformation from a raging drug addiction at the age of 18, to continuous sobriety for the past 24 years. Artistic expression was the biggest factor in Catherine’s recovery. It gave voice to stories that were hidden underneath layers of fear and doubt. Jumping into the creative process helped Catherine find a way to connect with the world around her and with the world within.

Catherine encourages people to combine photography with spiritual practice, writing and physical well being to create a more Soul*Full life. All of these aspects of life connect with one another and inform each other. Photography can help you see every day moments as sacred, and Catherine explores this idea in her Soul*Full eCourse and retreats. Catherine encourages her students to let go of fear, doubt and perfectionism and just try! Catherine’s down to earth approach helps create a sacred space where people feel at ease and safe to explore and create.
