Moving

I have been tossing around the idea of moving my blog. Why? Well, for a variety of reasons. After doing some research and looking at numerous options I have decided to go with WordPress.

There will be very minor differences to the new blog. The name will stay the same and the content will be the same.

As soon as the change is made, I will update the blog and my readers with information on how to find us.

Me Ra Koh Photography Workshop

It was a little over 2 years ago that I realized every time I picked up my camera I was happy. I no longer wanted my camera to be just a point and shoot. I was eager to do more, I wanted to create. It's been a fun two years and I'm still learning.

What did I get from this weekend? Here's my short list:
1. New friends.
2. I'm talented and I'm good enough.
3. I'm the artist and my camera is the tool.
4. I'm very new to photo coaching but I will get it, at some point.
5. Crop in camera - it saves time.
6. Put down that flash- natural light is your friend.
7. It's time to take this "hobby" to the next level - how does Phillipa Dugaw Photography sound?

This is just a sample of shots I took this weekend. It was difficult and fun all in one
