New Website!!

So the website is finished mostly anyway, at least enough to be uploaded. If anyone sees any glitches or problem areas, feel free to let us know. It has been needing a makeover for a while since I had done the original page with frames, and couldn't enter very many keywords for the site. The look is overall different, and hopefully will be easy to navigate. All of the same content should still be there.

Also, we will be sending out the first edition of the new BlackWatch Studios Newsletter this week. If you have been associated with the studio in the past, you are automatically subscribed to receive a copy. Feel free to pass it along to anyone you feel might enjoy what we do at BlackWatch.

Photoshoot tomorrow...

Its been quite a while since we've been in the studio to do our own art shoot. I really miss it, so I'm excited that we will be shooting tomorrow. Stay tuned to see some new images!

Outdoor Lighting Photography Workshop

We took a little break from all of the home improvement tasks today and scouted out a few places we thought might make a good setting for the class. This place is unbelieveably beautiful, and just perfect for the upcoming outdoor lighting workshop:

Hines Hill Conference Center is situated on the Hines Hill Campus next to the CVNPA Administration Building. Sitting on 60 acres, the conference center offers a private sanctuary in the park...

First Blog

So I'm new to this blogging thing, be kind...

The studio has been busy the past few months with Lighting Workshops, Photoshop classes, and a few model shoots (not nearly enough of those, however...) the best thing for me about the classes is getting to know a bunch of new people. We've really enjoyed having everyone down to the studio for the classes and workshops so much that we might even start having a "social hour" for class attendees to just come and hang out at the studio, ask any questions you might have now that you've been away from the class for a while, and (hopefully) trying out some of the stuff you've learned.

I started this blog page so that I can keep folks up to date with events at the studio, upcoming classes, and just some random thoughts etc.
