Keith Cuddeback I pay for the required $1M policy for liability insurance, with a specific "additional named insured" certificate specifically indemnifying the California State Parks system, then I pay the Bodie Foundation an additional $3000 or so to bring groups in for 6-7 hours of interior access plus 6-7 hours of after hours and night access. Their fee structure starts at $500 fro night access plus $100/person, $400 for interior access plus $100/person, so including the insurance it could easily cost well over $1000 for a person to arrange their own access, but by bringing in groups, I can get access down to $545 for both interior and night access, and if I have room, I've occasionally offered night only at $325 and interiors only at $245. I've had other pro photographers come in with my workshops multiple times, since it's cheaper than arranging their own access. http://www.jeffsullivanphotography.com/blog/bodie-night-photography-workshops/
Yikes Jeff Sullivan! It's great that you are arranging access for groups. I'm down for a night access, even on short notice. How do I get on the list? I'm planning to go to Bristlecones next week during the new moon, do you have a group then? I'm flexible.
Keith Cuddeback I'm bringing photographers out to Bodie this Saturday. The standard package I set up includes access to building interiors not generally open to the public from sunrise to noon, then a return at 6 pm after the park closes for sunset and night access until 1 am: http://www.jeffsullivanphotography.com/blog/bodie-night-photography-workshops/ I was thinking about opening up a limited number of spaces for night or interior access only if you'd prefer that.
Jeff Sullivan this month the timing isn't quite right. I can't get away until Tuesday so I'll be going to Bristlecone Pines then. However, I would like to plan to do a night shoot at Bodie in the future when you have space. Cheers!
G+ Photowalk May 4-7: Yosemite National Park - A World Heritage Site, one of the world's most incredible landscapes - Lunar rainbows ("moonbows") - waterfalls at peak flow - dogwood trees blooming by the Merced River - Spring wildflowers - reflections in Spring pools & the Merced River - full moon night landscapes The second photowalk in my series this Spring, again coinciding with the full moon to maximize shooting opportunities, will be to Yosemite National Park. This is one of the most spectacular landscapes in the world, and with lunar rainbows and night, full waterfalls, and wildflowers and trees blooming, this is arguably the best weekend of the year to visit. Feel free to RSVP or ask questions here, or for more information in a post which won't get buried, I've set up a post under a new Yosemite page at this link, where I'll maintain all the latest logistical details: https://plus.google.com/u/0/b/116372553458318494396/116372553458318494396/posts/ct...
Limited Time Offer For the next 2 weeks, the light of the setting sun will backlight Horsetail Falls just before sunset... if the waterfall is flowing and if clouds don't block the sun! I just cancelled reservations for 2 rooms at the Yosemite Lodge for Feb 24-26 Weekend. I'll still be going, but I decided to camp instead. Come on up and shoot Yosemite in the Winter! https://picasaweb.google.com/107459220492917008623/MyTravels20062009#5293901653794383122 #plusphotoextract
Valley of Fire I've added a lot of Valley of Fire photos to further illustrate some of the types of opportunities available during the G+/Panoramio Photowalk April 5-8 in the Las Vegas Area .

ReplyDeleteBeautiful shot Jeff Sullivan. When I was there they closed before sunset. How do you arrange to be there at night?
