Extra! Extra! Mountain Hi Aquires.........

An additional set of top quality lights! They will add portability and creativity for both studio and on location sessions. They are a unique travel set of Broncolor lights (7 in all!), complete with soft boxes, stands, reflectors, two hard sided shipping cases,and all kinds of extras for the ability to get some wonderful new looks and I can't wait to try them out. Photographers often rent these for fashion shoots. Now....for many of you a few new lamps just wouldn't be all that exciting, but they are sure to be a great benefit to all my clients and they mean a lot of fun for Mountain Hi!

Before and After - New Services!

I am now doing photo restorations and for those of you who are trying to rent or sell your property - check this page! Its shows a photo I've tweaked - the end result? A much more inviting property! Be sure to visit my website - the Before and After page!

Please feel free to contact me - a nominal fee could mean the difference between a sale sooner rather than later.

Also, see a challenge of taking a photo of a statue and making it look alive - now that was fun!

More news - already!

Excitement is building around a ship's bell recovered off the west coast of South America! By a special photoshopping process, I was able to use a photographic image of the bell, separate the colors into channels, and help identify a date on the bell of 1555! Much research and mystery surrounds the bell, and now we are hoping photographs will also confirm the foundry and ship's name. Much of the bell is corroded and little can be identified visually, but it is great fun to be detective.

  • A new book is coming out this summer will have some nice landscapes from Mountain Hi - I'll keep you posted on the progress.

Mountain Hi Photography Welcomes You!



I've been wanting to give my valued clients a place to comment, give feedback and get involved - it's been a goal for a while, so I'm excited to invite you to join this blog! So, Welcome!
Many things have been going on here at Mountain Hi, I wanted to give you a quick update. A few projects which will be keeping me busy are:






  • Photography, design and layout for the 2009 Monument Firefighters calendar....we've already begun and it is going to be a lot of fun, not to mention it will benefit a worthy cause - I'll tell you more about that later with a link on how to purchase one - there will be smoke and fire! The above is just a sneak peak at a possible page. Russell Park from the Colorado Springs Gallery is also contributing greatly - thanks so much to him!



  • Calendars - that seems to be one of the things in demand for 2009, so if you have a subject you'd like to discuss, give me a call!



  • Seminar: I will be attending a Light Seminar in Nashville, Tennessee in May - sounds like it will be very valuable - can't wait to know more!



  • Smyth Byrd - Bed and Breakfast and Tea Room, Plattville, Alabama, Photo Session, May I'll be photographing their beautiful location for their website, promotional items, stationery, etc. That will be fun!



  • Weddings: The busy season approaches, so you might want to book now - I still have a few dates open.



Well, that's all for now....I hope to hear from you now about what you'd like to see!
