A Colorado Ranch Renovation

We had the honor of being able to photograph this project from start to end. Three years in the making, Pony UpRanch in Vail, Colorado transformed from a older ranch style property to a beautiful mountain contemporary design thanks to Architect Tom Cole http://www.tomcolearchitect.com Here is the final product after a relatively quick build considering the magnitude of it all.  Water features abound throughout the property.  The garage (or “pavilion”) has a rooftop deck. An elevator was built for guests that can’t handle the stairs. The “Sweat Shop” is a separate building for swimming & workouts with doors that completely open to the outside.  The existing horse arena was re-skinned and beetle-kill pine was used for the indoor arena.An atrium was added to enjoy some greenery in the Winter months. The cabin is situated high on the mountain & feels like a real getaway from it all.Along the creek was the perfect spot to build a tent for guests to camp out.What a fantastic experience for us to be able to photograph such an incredible property!

Rock your Style!

You know you’re going to get a great photo when you have a group of hair stylists that can rock the camera. The staff at Bliss Hair Salon did just that. They brought style, attitude & fun! Oh, and their hair looked awesome too!

The Vail Valley’s hippest hair salon, Bliss was rocking’ it on their photoshoot!

This Summer’s Vail Valley Magazine believed to be “Best Yet”

Well, how could you go wrong with Mikaela Shiffrin, Olympic Gold Medalist on the cover! Not only a great story about her, but stories about Beekeeping, Cowboys, a French Country Home, Mountain Biking and Mushroom Hunting make it a fabulous read. Oh, did I mention most of the photography is by Brent Bingham; editorial as well as ads.

Check it out!

So excited to see Mikaela Shiffrin & Heidi Kloser going to the Olympics in Sochi! We had the pleasure  and honor to photograph them for the holiday issue of the Vail Beaver Creek Magazine.  Not only that, we shot Mikaela for the Vail Lifestyle’s Sochi Magazine and her U.S Ski Team car decal in Europe and caught her signing autographs during the World Cup ski race here in Vail. You go girls!!

And a little biking time as well…

My good friend and fellow photographer, Katherine Schmidt, took this photo of me in Salida

Getting Out of Dodge, not that I don’t love Vail in the Summer

Recently, I decided to get out of the studio and the valley for a few days.  I took a model and a friend to explore the small town of Salida, Colorado where we shot in back alleys and coffee shops, and what an interesting place it was! The town is a mecca/confluence for not only rafters and bikers, but also artists of all types. A prominent creative vibe thrives throughout the entire downtown area where the streets are lined with  art galleries, funky antique stores, and fabulous restaurants! If you go there be sure to grab a delicious coffee at The Brown Dog Coffee Co., and Cafe Dawn.  Dinner at the Laughing Lady is also exquisite!

Here are some of the photos :

 

New Horizons for the Vail Valley Magazine

In 2011,Vail Valley Magazine welcomed Joette Gilbert as an integral part of the magazine’s new direction and look. We had the pleasure of working directly with Joette for the major portion of the magazine’s photography. From the cover image to feature architectural and landscape images to advertisers photography, we worked closely with Joette and the advertisers to produce a fresh new look for this 28 year standing magazine. The response from the advertisers and general reader have been enthusiatic and overwhelmingly positive. We can’t wait to see what we’ll bring to the Winter Issue this Fall!  Stay tuned!
