Website being refreshed

Published by admin under Uncategorized

I’ve been wanting to update and refresh my main website for some time now.
2007 was a spectacular year and I have over 30,000 images that I captured, many of which are among my favorites.
So the desire to post favorite images on my blog and site has been a bit overwhelming, and sadly, extremely lacking.

The new galleries will be up online soon and they will be filled with tons of images.

I currently have one new gallery active - titled ‘Monochrome’ and will have one online soon titled ‘Tones’ and another one titled ‘Vivid’.

These three primary galleries will each be a ‘greatest hits’ selection of images - each one matching the theme of the gallery title.

I decided to do it this way to make the viewing experience even better.

Of course, I will have a couple of engagement session galleries as well as a ‘featured’ wedding gallery.  Add to all of that there will be links from my blog here to showcase complete wedding galleries - showing images from start to finish - and also showcasing the various books I have designed for all of my clients.

Needless to say, there is a lot going on here and I am super excited to share all of these wonderful images with everyone.

God Bless!

Attention Photographers!!!

Published by admin under Uncategorized

CLICK HERE to go to my Photographer’s Pro Shop and check out the prices on my newest Lightroom Presets.

Yes, I have lost my mind.

I normally charge at least $50 for my newest pack of powerful Adobe Lightroom Presets, but a good friend of mine has convinced me that ‘micro sales’ is the ‘future’ - especially for downloadable content.

He told me that when a downloadable product is inexpensive, and proves to be a valuable benefit to the end user - that the end user will tell as many people they know who might benefit from that product. Which in turn will cause them to tell others as well and then the snowball will begin to roll and you can actually do better selling stuff for less than you can by tacking on a larger price tag..
Personally, I don’t know if he is correct or if he is trying to take advantage of me. But I really have nothing to lose here so I figured I would give it a try.
How ’bout some testimonials?

“You make a mean set of presets my friend. I like’m a lot.” Mark Hawkins of Mark Hawkins Photography

“I have the presets as well and they are just fantastic.” Chad Bailey of Chad Bailey Photography

“These presets are the best EVER, your contrast settings remind me of Zones III - V… I would pay a million dollars for them” Ansel Adams

(okay, that last one was made up - just seeing if you were still paying attention : p )

Seriously though - I honestly want to see if there is any truth to what my friend is saying. Feel free to prove him right, Or, prove me right so I can happily raise my price again to where I think it should be. If he is correct and I sell and profit more with a lower price, I will keep the price as-is for 3 more months, and if he continues to be right I will keep the price that way forever.

So if you need a really great set of Adobe Lightroom Presets, check mine out.

They work great for me and I designed them originally to speed up my work flow and I am sure they will work equally great for you.
God Bless! <><

ps. you don't have to be a pro either. Adobe Lightroom is super powerful and is a great tool for ANY photo enthusiast.
