Posted by admin on August 12th, 2009 | 0 comments

I have always dreamed of visiting the majestic island of El Nido in Palawan. Immaculate beaches, towering limestone cliffs, fascinating lagoons, majestic mountain ranges and colorful marine life – absolutely a paradise. And I must say, a photographer’s haven.

If only I have the moolah to spend, hubby and I would definitely join the EL NIDO PHOTOGRAPHY FESTIVAL this coming October:

CCPC May 2009 Photography Seminars.

Posted by admin on May 21st, 2009 | 0 comments
It may be the last few days of the month but check out the Camera Club of the Philippines Center’s (CCPC) May 2009 schedule for the remaining photography seminars they have that might be an interest to you.

Since last month, I’ve been planning to attend their basic photography course but procrastination always takes over thus, leaving me just waiting for the next month’s new schedule. Their seminar fees are the cheapest I’ve researched so far and the fact that their center is just a 15-minute ride from our place, this would really be a nice seminar starter for me to attend.

And oh, do I see Atty. Raymund Fortun’s name on the bottom of the list as one of their lecturers? I bet the novice wedding photographers out there will be anxious to be part of this seminar.
