2011 brought many firsts and we trumpeted the fun on our photo blog.
We held our first Open House at the photo studio. It represented a big milestone at HarryNowell.com. We worked hard to transform a run down property into OttawaStudioWorks.com

We blogged three classic courses held in January February – Creative Fundamentals, Natural Light Portraits and Photographing Pro Hockey. We posted some hockey photos from the workshop, too!

The studio slowed down a little in April as we introduced a new member to the team at HarryNowell.com. He stole our hearts.
