I wanted to get the word out before I get so busy with Christmas, coming up.
A world-famous and award-winning celebrity photographer, Me Ra Koh, takes incredible pride in empowering women. Me Ra has been featured Oprah, VH1’s Fabulous Weddings and Martha Stewart TV shows. She also created the SOAR! Scholarship which recently begun (Dec 1st). This Scholarship breathes hope and encouragement into people around the nation. It allows three women to have their photography dreams come true by helping them build their own photography business. Isn’t that great? The three scholarship winners will receive camera equipment from SONY, software from Adobe, ShootQ, and SHOWIT. Also, SmugMug will design websites and blogs for those winners. Wow. In addition to all that (as if it wasn’t enough) the three women will receive mentoring from Me Ra and other industry leaders on launching a successful photography business. How awesome is that?

In the 12 months following the announcement (of the winners), each will document their journey through photos, blog posts, videos, etc. All of these wonderful tools and advice provide three deserving women the opportunity to pursue and achieve their photography dreams! Seein’ how I host a weekly PhotoHunt, I thought this may be of interest to many of you. This wonderful program can empower and enlighten young women throughout our nation. Giving young women hope and encouragement allows them to thrive emotionally and physically.

Each SOAR! Scholarship applicant must complete a brief online application (requires personal & family info), a summary of what makes photography your passion and your time and travel commitments. Applicants must also submit a two-minute video explaining why they are worthy of receiving the SOAR! Scholarship. The entire application process proves fast and easy, and all information and FAQs can be found within the SOAR! Scholarship website. Hope someone benefits from this

I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour campaign by Mom Central on behalf of the SOAR! Scholarship and Me Ra Koh Photography. In addition, I received an Amazon gift certificate to thank me for taking the time to participate

I just have to show off the new one, again. But, she fits the topic well! She is super fast – wow. Watching her run and play on the hardwood is more than a hoot! She and Nix aren’t really friends yet but maybe we are makin’ slow progress. I hope. I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas this coming weekend!
