Come visit us on Lazy Way Lane!

 

Lazy Way Lane near Key West Bight, where the Fury, Sebago, and several other charters leave from every day. Come by and rent a GoPro underwater camera for the day! (Image courtesy of www.conchscooter.blogspot.com) We are located in the fine art gallery for our friend Alicia of AER Photography.

Summer is in full swing, and it’s time to rent a GoPro HD camera!  Down at the Key West Bight near Schooner Wharf Bar is a little road affectionately referred to by the locals as Lazy Way Lane, and there you’ll find things like jewelry stores, an amazing pretzel place (ask for our good friends Jan and Dave), and our friend Alicia of AER Photography.  We are helping her with her shop while she’s out of town (shooting in Mexico…lucky dog), so we will be operating the GoPro rentals from there for the time being.  If you would like to rent an underwater camera, call us up (305-517-3051) to reserve one, and then stop by before your snorkel trip, scuba diving trip, fishing or spearfishing charter, to pick it up.  These are high definition cameras that do underwater photo and video.  The cameras are compact and easy to use, and prevent you from risking your own expensive camera to the salt air and moisture. 

For more information on how to rent an underwater camera for your day in Key West, go to www.rentgopros.com, or email us at rent@bondfirestudio.com.

We are also booking photography tours on the island of Key West from this location.  If you are interested in exploring the island with a professional guide and photography instructor who can help you get the best shots, show the best locations, and answer any technical photography questions, call us at 305-809-8500, go to www.keywestphototours.com, or email us at tours@bondfirestudio.com.

 

Key West Underwater Camera Rentals – GoPro HD Hero

Did you know? If you are visiting Key West and will be partaking in any kind of water-related activity (that covers just about everyone right?), check out our affiliate site, www.rentgopros.com, for information on renting a

waterproof and underwater camera, the highly popular GoPro HD Hero, for your trip. You can rent one for the day, several days, or an entire week. If you’ve been thinking about purchasing a GoPro, but aren’t sure if it’s right for you and want to demo the camera first and try it out before you buy, we offer that luxury as well. Brand new, the GoPro set goes for about $300 and can be purchased downtown at Diver’s Direct at the corner of Greene and Simonton. But if you just want to use it for the day to capture your dive trips, snorkeling adventures, jet ski rides, kayak tour, or kiteboarding lesson, this is a great option. The basic rental starts at just under 30 bucks if you have your own SD card and don’t want the insurance waiver. With a 16GB SD card (more than enough space to capture everything you could possibly want to do), a chest, head, or wrist mount, a lanyard, and the damage waiver, you’re looking at about 20 dollars more.

We will gladly deliver and pick up to your hotel, charter boat, or other location of your choice. Go to www.rentgopros.com for more info and booking.

Key West Photography Tours

Other than some groovy changes to the blog layout, our newest addition to the family is our Key West Photo Tours.  I have been meaning to blog about this for some time, but with all the details that go into creating a new venture for a business, things like scheduling, markeing materials, meetings, and other adminstrative duties end up getting in the way. 

See the island in a whole new way. Capture amazing travel images to take home with you from your journey to Key West.

So, what is a Photo Tour, anyway?  So glad you asked!  A photo tour, or photography tour, or photography excursion, as some call it, is basically a mini photography session that takes place in a unique location, and headed by a professional photographer “slash” tour guide.  They are available in many cities around the world, and range from a few hours to a few weeks.  Here at Key West Photo Tours, we are focusing on offering photography instruction, professional critique, pointers for improving your travel images, and beginner-level camera operation for anyone visiting Key West.  With my former experience as a college photography instructor, and my team of brilliant photography staff, we strive to give people a unique way to see the island.  The tour also provides seasoned photographers with a way to discover some of the best photography locations, without having to wander aimlessly wasting time.

Tours are booking daily Monday through Sunday, and range in price from $35 to $55.  We do occasionally run online specials, so check the website, www.keywestphototours.com for full details, topics covered, locations visited, and booking information.  You can also read bios for the photography guides, including myself (Karrie).  Or you can call us at 305-809-8500, or email us at tours@bonfirestudio.com.
