Testimonials (What Others Thought About Our Stuff)

"I've got to tell you, it was a bit like drinking from a fire hose! There is so much good information to absorb. It was worth every nickel." —Brian Tice

"I just wanted to drop you line and tell you how pleased I am with the info from your DVD that I just got. Also, the info in the Fuzzy Logic book is going to keep me busy all winter! I'm real excited about adapting some of your approaches to help me separate from the competition around here." —Ladd Scavnicky

"I just viewed all of "Go Away" for a second time. I cannot underestimate how you have helped me. I've completed my first two in-home sessions. I had a great time, and the results were awesome. Thanks!" —Mark Illingworth

L-Gobo


"L-Gobo"
$170

This is the coolest thing since doorknobs were invented. I've wrestled with subtractive lighting for this entire century (so far). I've purchased and made various devices that worked, but were clunky. This one isn't! It's a Westcott product, but for now, it's only available through me. So if you want a really neat top and side blocker that you can carry around the yard, then stake the light stand into the grass... search no more! (It includes the Reflector Arm Holder, but not the light stand)

Note: I added a counter-weighted arm (not shown above) to balance the weight of the arm and panels. This can be done with an aluminum pipe, large washers on the end of the pipe, and hose clamps to attach the pipe to the reflector arm holder. Also, it's best to drill holes in the legs of your light stand to stake it down, to prevent wind from blowing it over. Contact me if you have questions regarding this modification.
