Cheer Challenge update

A number of folks have emailed me through the blog looking for Cheer Challenge photos. These will be posted soon - a number of factors is delaying their appearance.

First, there are over 2,500 photos. I need to edit out at least some of them before they are posted to the site. Unfortunately, I'm extremely busy with other projects right now.

Secondly, in the past I have divided the images by teams, I don't think this will be possible this time around. To sort these in this manner isn't practical.

That said, they will appear chronologically starting from the practice round to the end of the competition. If you know when your team competed (and the team before and after them) it might help you narrow down your search.

I may be able to do something within the website to organize the photos by teams at some point, but for right now the plan is to put these images online unedited (I'll remove the truly blurry photos, etc ...) and in one big gallery.

Remember that the 99 cent downloads are unedited in any way. You can crop them or enhance them yourself.

If you order any prints (4x6, 5x7, etc ...) I will crop and enhance the photos before they are printed.

Thanks for taking the time to reach out to me to show your interest in looking at these photos and please email me if you want to be notified when they are uploaded shawn@coldhollowphoto.com

Take care!

Quick update

I finally have a spare moment to update my blog.

As of today, all sports games are now uploaded to my website.

I should be getting to a few more games in the next two weeks. As you can see I haven't seen many games this fall.

That's because we've been extremely busy with sports leagues, school shoots, seniors, weddings, etc ...

It's been nice to be in such demand, but it has made it challenging in some ways. I think we've learned a lot this month in regards to time management and outsourcing some of the production.

That said. if you or someone you know is a photoshop savvy, has a good computer and an eye for photos and design, we might have some work for you from time to time. Give me a call or shoot me an email - shwn@coldhollowphoto.com if you have any interest.

We've nearly caught up on our production for the fall, so hopefully I'll be able to do a better job of communicating on the blog in the days to come.

Take care!

99 cent downloads now available for select folks

As my business has continued to grow, I've been trying how to find a way to reward those teams, schools and leagues that hire me to do their sports photography.

I think I may have found a way.

Starting immediately, any photos I take for any league, school or team that hires for their posed photography business will be able to instantly download any action image from any games they play or just 99 cents. Also, I've dropped the cost of 4x6s by a buck and I am offering CDs of all the images I take of any one player in any one season for just $34.99, plus tax.

I also can do photo collage posters for $49.99. Shoot me an email - shawn@coldhollowphoto.com - if you have any interest in these unique gifts.

A couple of logistical things: I no longer edit photos before I upload them. Wish I could, but I'm far too busy at this point.

If you download an image, it will not be cropped or edited. You will have to do that once you get it. If you order a print or a CD, those images will be professionally cropped and edited before you receive them.

Here's the difference between unedited and edited photos.

This is the original image as it appears on my website:

Here's a cropped and edited version:

Here's an alternative crop:

As you can see there is quite a bit on enhancement than can occur with these unedited photos.

If your current school, team or league photographer isn't offering these services and you would like to switch to our service, please let me know. We are pretty tightly booked, but we can always find a way to make room for more customers. If you would like to see samples of our work, letters of reccomdendation and sample price lists, please contact me and I'll get them to you ASAP.
