Here in Savannah the heat has been turned way UP (and incidentally so has the frizz level of my hair), and we’ve been enjoying the most delicious thick and heavy afternoon rains with dramatic claps of thunder and the occasional streak of lightening! When we arrive home from school my youngest always like to collect the […]

Have you ever kayaked across a lake full of trees? No, me neither… until Mother’s Day this weekend just gone!  Gorgeous Australian friends who also live here in the US invited us to visit them at their their campsite at a local Statepark in Georgia about 1.5hrs from Savannah.  They tucked us into their canoe and […]

One of our Advanced Photography Students asked me during our group coaching call last week what I did when I was in a photography rut? I smiled… oh that photography rut! I can’t pretend I don’t know her well… we’ve been firm friends lately, as the transition to living in a new country has sapped a […]

One of the best things about our photography courses is that it’s not all over at the end of the course. Once we’ve completed the modules, our students move into our graduate community where they continue to learn and play in a fun, supportive group online.

I’m so thrilled that she has agreed to be featured on the blog to share her experience and images with us. Biggest a-ha moment My biggest Ah-Ha in learning photography was finally understanding the exposure triangle! I had […]

This month I’m taking part in a blogging challenge & scarily we were encouraged to write one blog post a day! The first challenge was to share 10 facts with you, so here goes….. 1. Today is my Birthday! I was going to tell you about how I was lovingly referred to as a ‘Birthday Whore’.. but my husband […]

When I first started out as a beginner in photography, it was a huge challenge to learn the skills I needed just to get my camera out of auto! Going out and doing a course in person somewhere wasn’t an option for me… I was a full time mother married to a self employed man […]

I was recently on holiday with my family – it was a total treat, and I’m super grateful that we were able to spend this time together visiting friends and exploring new parts of the world! Plus as a photographer what more could I ask for… beautiful scenery and action packed days of adventure and travel! A Confession Yet […]
