Photographic/Video/Web Services for Artists & Small Business
To pricing

I offer a variety of services and workshops: Photography, Digital Image Editing, Building/Maintaining Your Own Website, pottery, and raku and wood-fire kiln building.  The first class I ever taught was break dancing...that's another story and I would probably just "break" instead of dance if I taught it again.

The images you see on this page are from my photographic workshops where I also demonstrate in real time digitally projected how to edit your images and if there is time also address websites, traditional and online marketing.  The goal of my workshops is to give you a solid understanding of what you can do to give your work and business an edge--either by doing it yourself or hiring someone like me.  With the costs of everything going up, now is a good time to invest in your work:  with professional photography, a website/some form of a store, and a revised marketing plan.  If you are a hobbyist, it is still good to be able to share your passion and progress in the form of a website.

Added this year are a variety of photographic and video related services I am offering.  Having grown up with computers and being an artist in a variety of mediums, I have developed the ability and skills to understand what most artists are looking for when it comes to how they want their work or themselves presented.  I am always learning and updating my skills and abilities including learning how to light and shoot new forms and mediums.  Added to this repertoire is also high definition video production, editing, writing, and DVD and web authoring.  I am convinced short films are the next step in presenting our work and ourselves, telling the story of what we do, as a positive marketing component to our plan and as an amazing artistic vehicle for self expression.  On the more commercial side, "How to" videos have tremendous potential as well.

Below are my services to artists.  You are welcome to make general inquiries.  I use the best commercial software and design tools (Adobe Master Collection, Sony & Canon Products) as well as a variety of open source software.  I am available as a consultant in any of these areas, please inquire for rates, and if I can't help you I usually know someone who can.

Commercial Photography of Artists Work  (see examples)
All images from a photo shoot are edited in Photoshop CS3 including touch up, cloning, brightness/contrast adjustments, etc. All 10.1 mega pixel images will be available for download from my website; I provide instructions in how to download--it's easy. Initial work can be posted online for evaluation.  If you have a highly reflective surface, please inquire as HRS take more time to shoot and edit in Photoshop.  You can mail the work to me or drop it off, but before you do, contact me about your work, what your expectations are, any questions you have, an estimate, etc.  You must schedule with me the time and expected time of completion so you know when you can expect your images ready.  If there are some services you would like but do not see, please contact me.  I can also provide services to uploading your images for your directly to Zapplication, JAS, etc.

If you have a project in mind, suggestions, contact me to see if I can help you.  Chances are, I can.  A note on Shipping:  You are responsible for the shipping/insurance both ways.  I take exceedingly great care in packing and will re-pack your work as it came.
