Dear Readers,

    First of all, thank you for your interest and support in Begleiter.com Photography. 2011 has been a year of change, discovery and growth.  

2012 is around the corner and I am grateful to announce I  will be celebrating my 30th year as a freelance photographer and the publication of my fifth photography  book,

" 50 Lighting Setups for the Portrait Photographers" Volume Two; due out in June.  

   This book is a sequel with a lot more in-depth digital information from conception to digital post production.  All but one of the portraits are of people from Montana.   

In the works is a celebration of the publication and my 30th year as a professional photographer , slated for June  so stay tuned.

The new year also marks  the launch of the Vintage 2013 Calendar. I met with "my man" Steve Robertson who has some pretty exciting ideas of how to make it happen...which I will reveal in a later issue. If you are interested in sponsoring a month give him a call. 

Enjoy your holidays and  have a Happy New Year, I look forward to hearing from you.

The offer still stands, that if you stop by I will treat you to my favorite Chai Tea.
