Anyone interested in portraits? 

IN UTAH FOR A WHILE
I've been working on next year's project a lot here in Utah so I have some location stability and some time to do some quick photoshoots.

AVAILABILITY
Because of Patreon I also have an employee that works on my pictures so I could handle some small photoshoots. 

GOOD LOCATION OPTION
Also I am staying at a house that's seriously super good for portrait pictures
(1-2 people) 

Let me know and I'll figure out when and how I can do this for my patrons.
We can do some lowkey fast and easy shoots... they don't need to be expensive long involved photoshoots. Just come stop by and get some rockin pictures.

Just a note to let y'all know what I've been up to.

1. PROJECT WITH ABC
I think you all know I'm working on a project with ABC ... if you don't then I guess this is me telling you that we're working on a Photo Event that we'll have next year and I'm planning an Exhibition event this year as an invite only sorta thing the end of september in Utah. Let me know if you want in. 

2. PHOTOSHOOTS
I just did a full week photoshoot for a photo company called SmugMug 
And now I'm back doing a lot of editing.
I may also open up individual or family photoshoots later this month. 
Let me know if you guys are interested.

3. JUNE
Pretty cool month I should share what I did and where I was at. 
Parked up Uintas for a week.
Then down on a houseboat on Lake Powell
Then North Rim grand canyon for a few days
Then Moab
Then back in SLC to end the month.
Got lots of editing done and took some cool pictures

Hope to get another month of screensavers out soon enough.

4. EMPLOYEES
You guys are helping me attain this. I'm able to get a couple part time assistants to help organize pictures so i can focus on taking, editing and doing my bigger projects. Not all the other stuff in between.

5. LAST NIGHT - RAINBOW
I had a pretty amazing experience photographing a Temple under a rainbow.
So I'm going to share it all with you in the next post... just for patrons.
I'll give you all the full file you can use as a background or print with it if you'd like.

SURPRISE GIFT TO YOU
So stay tuned for the next update and let me know if you end up printing it and take a picture of it and share it with me.

Have you been on a trip with me recently?
... you may want to read through this to know about the pictures I took.

GOOD NEWS, BAD NEWS, GOOD NEWS, BETTER NEWS

(Special interest to friends who've done stuff with me recently)

GOOD NEWS

I've done some really cool activities these last couple of months.

They weren't paid jobs but we all know I take my camera anyway because I love it.

And I took some awesome pictures of friends.

This includes Havasupai, Lake Powel, Moab, and even small activities like Shooting the Tube

Not to mention all the rest of the activities I've done earlier this year.

BAD NEWS

I am behind on the publishing of said pictures. Like way behind.

I mean one day maybe they'll all get up but I continue to do fun things, while juggling my actual career and my work on my Book and my upcoming project with ABC.

And let's face it... I'm not gonna stop doing fun things any time soon.

GOOD NEWS

I still want to share these pictures, they deserve to be seen and shared.

So let's make a deal.

I'll work on some of the pictures but I'll need to put a sort of priority level approach to my time.

Those that support me in my endeavors and my art will just have a higher preference in the order of things.

How to support?

Then just let me know what you're looking for and when I'm at the computer we'll make it happen.

BETTER NEWS

If you were at POWELL, HAVASUPAI, MOAB or some recent FOR FUN event

I won't just put a higher priority on that event for you.

I will GIVE YOU SOMETHING COOL

I give everyone rights to use the pictures online (sharing, posting, making profile pics)

But i've had a lot of requests from people who want prints.

I hate selling stuff and worst of all is selling stuff to friends from fun events.

So I'll give my supporters FREE access to the full files and rights to print them.

This is a big deal... this is like one of the first time I've done something like this in 10years.

It may be less money (not that i'd ever try to sell stuff anyway) but having you on the team of long time supporters means oh so much more to me. And I want to support those that want things printed... cuz that's cool.

So be a patron supporter at http://patreon.com/jarvie and then let me know what you're hoping for. Let's be a team, your support will help me keep on doing awesome things.

EXPERIMENT

And if this over the top experiment goes well maybe I'll keep doing it.

If you're reading this thinking about some cool thing we did a long time ago and wish I'd do it for that thing... send me a message maybe I'll have time soon and can make it happen.

RECAP
Support on this website and send me a message of what you're looking for... you're on the team!!

I still have a goal to do a TOP 10 for each month. 
I'm going to open this set to all patrons as well... enjoy

Oh and I couldn't decide on 10 ... so I just made it 15... it was a pretty special month anyway.

Please let me know how you end up using these images.

Screensaver, background, phones, tablets, tv ... i don't know what people do these days but let me know.

p.s. if you read this today (tuesday) the Free Prints thing has been extended through today

WIN-WIN
For a while now I have enjoyed turning the tables on my birthday and trying to find ways to do something creative for others that becomes a WIN-WIN

PATREON
I think most of my friends have no clue about this site I use patreon.com/jarvie 
Which I call Crowd Patronage.
A place for supporters to give a little and get a lot.

OVER THE TOP
In April I gave out 30 $250 quick photoshoots for simply being a patron.
I was giving of my time and talents.

TODAY FREE STUFF
This time I'll give of my Time, Talents and Money
I'm going to give all patrons no matter the support level a free Print.
In fact $36 of pictures.

All those who are patrons will be able to see the next post which gives the code for the $36 gift certificate.

PRINTS ON THE WALLS - AND EYEBALLS ON THE SITE
I will actually be paying the print costs for these images... but it's worth it. 
I want to get you art that will bring beauty to your house.
And I want you to take a look at Patreon and share it with others.

90% of my friends have no idea what it is and the impact it's making on my ability to pursue my bigger and grander projects.

SHARE
So you can see it's worth it for me. It's a wonderful place to develope a community and the time and money will be worth it in the long run. 
Share this post with anyone that may want a print of a temple or landscape pictures or that may just want to support me as I create awesome things.

-------------------------

EXTRA BIRTHDAY TREAT FOR ME
The hope is a few of you get the more exciting sizes which cost more than $36... anything above $36 is going to help cover the cost of printing.

PATREON HELPS ME DO FUN THINGS
Regardless of the outcome Patreon does help me have the flexibility to do some fun things.
