This month's featured gallery is the RULE Gallery in Denver, Colorado. ALL galleries in the world can now be featured with Google Business Photos!

Today, Google Business Photos offically launches and I am now a Google Trusted Photographer!

For the past 2 months I have been not-so-secretly training for this great new gig. I am now working to create great imagery of local business they can use to gain worldwide exposure.

Please take a moment to check out the new website I just launched in conjunction with the project.

and I am listed here: http://maps.google.com/help/maps/businessphotos/get-started.html

I am honored and proud to be a part of this project to promote local businesses. 

Christmas has just passed and I am just now able to post this month's Featured Gallery Project of the Month. 

I am proud to announce a project I have been working hard to bring to reality. Eat, ink. is a book about Food, Chefs, and their Tattoos I have been working on for the last year and a half with my cousin Birk O'Halloran. 

This project has been more than fun. I've made three trips to NYC for nine photoshoots so far. I've faced some of the greatest photographic challenges of my career. We created a 37 page proposal/sample book. The result even got the attention of a top literary agency!

Please keep an eye on the website. We'll be posting more preview images from the book soon!

Jeannie Hartley speaks to the people outside of the Federal Reserve building in Denver, Colorado during the Occupy Denver rally and march, Oct. 15th, 2011

The protests later turned violent when back at Civic Center Park a small group chose to block Broadway with a sit-in protest. Police used tear-gas, pepper spray and batons to break up the group with some arrests being made. 

Please take a moment to view my photographs from today's march.

Colorado State Patrol officers evict the Occupy Denver protesters in the early AM hours of 10/14/11.

Last night, I witnessed a large police action to clear the Occupy Denver camp in Lincoln Park at the foot of the Colorado State Capitol building in Denver.

I arrived about 11PM the mandated curfew Gov. Hickenlooper stated would be the time for the camp to go. Tensions were high as an action by the police was expected. The crowd was peaceful. Still, something powerful was about to happen.

On my way into the park, I saw Denver Police rigging up in riot gear and other police officers setting up a processing facility on the plaza between the Denver Public Library and Denver Art Museum. 

About 3:15AM , the Colorado State Patrol officers in full riot gear stormed the park. By daybreak, the camp was completely gone and 23 protesters were arrested. 

Please take a look at my Flikr photostream for images from the Occupy Denver movement.

In my photography of the band at various shows, I've been experimenting with RAW format capture and processing using Photoshop CS5. Being able to create styles post-capture is an amazing benefit. Being trained in traditional film photography techniques I still feel it's almost cheating though. But if I can increase the speed and level of my creativity while not sacrificing quality, I am all for it. 

Enjoy.

Not only have I been a professional Photographer for the past ten years, I have also expanded my experience and knowledge to include the art of Graphic Design. 

This portfolio includes samples of design for print. I am currently developing my portfolio of design for web and multimedia that will be featured in June!

Enjoy!

Check out this night shot from Montezuma, Costa Rica:

To create this image I utilized a long exposure to capture both the ambient light shining from just behind me and the lightning from the storm offshore. 

Enjoy!

Beginning this month I would like to show you my high-resolution panoramic images and tell you a little about the process that goes into creating these images. 

Click Here to View the Enitre Panoramic Gallery

Many of my panoramic images including the image above (captured in March of 2010 at the entrance of the Grand Teton National Park) are created utilizing 10-25 separate exposures that are later stitched together digitally to create stunning large format prints. For example the Teton image's final resolution is 29458 pixels X 2896 pixels. That is enough resolution to make a truly photographic quality print over 8 feet wide! Details that could never be seen within a single exposure now jump out of the image when viewed closely. 

Any of the panoramic images in my gallery are available for sale with custom printing and framing option available. Recently I have been experimenting with printing on removable wall art material. Similar to a decal but with great quality and removability this stuff looks great on the wall and is really cheap! Please contact me for more information. 

Enjoy!
