The 2nd book is out! EARLY FROST SERIES, by Jan E. Laansma and Nick C. Casale


This book of photos was inspired by an early frost that hit Colorado in the fall of 2009. As photographers, the onset of a frost settling on trees still filled with color was an incredible opportunity for us to capture some amazing photographs. In each and every direction we turned there was an amazing photo opportunity. Despite the bitter cold, the beauty of the scenes surrounding us, captivated us. Our only concern was could the camera capture what our eyes were really seeing. To our surprise, the results were better than expected. Together we hand-selected what we felt were the best photos and included them in this book.

We hope you enjoy these photos as much as we enjoyed capturing them for you!

All of the photos in this book were taken on October 11, 2009 in Palmer Lake, Colorado.

The book is available through LuLu.com

2020 Visual was once part of Legacy Data Solutions (LDS), L.L.C. (est. 1997), and was the graphics, video conversion, and video/photo production part of that business. 2020 Visual was also the part of LDS that provided all of the photos, videos, Wecams, and 360° tours for Tour Tri-Lakes, Tour Palmer Lake, and Tour Monument. At one point the name was even used for hand-made Jewelry design and sales. The 2020 Visual Studios name was used to sell Web site templates on-line. Today 2020 Visual is now it´s own entity and is 2020 Visual Studios, a Limited Liability Company, owned and operated by business partners Jan E. Laansma and Nick C. Casale. Both domain names, www.2020visual.com and www.2020visualstudios.com will get you to this Web site.

The 2020 Visual Studios photo and creative Visual Arts team members are Jan E. Laansma and Nick C. Casale. As a team, Jan and Nick work together to design, layout, prepare, and produce creative and beautiful photographic sessions and visual art. We are a well balanced team. We work equally as well in the creative mode as in the more analytical and detailed mode. We like to call it "creative common sense." You will not a meet a more responsible, punctual, and results-oriented "creative" team of people on the planet.

Jan E. Laansma Jan, Photographer and Visual Artist: Jan E. Laansma was born and raised in Michigan. Jan is a highly-creative, artistic, mom of seven kids, now ages 11 to 31. Jan grew up in and around large families and has a great deal of first-hand experience with family portraits, senior photos, and other people gatherings and events. Her ability to work with people and keep everyone smiling, organized, and on-task is an incredible asset to 2020 Visual Studios. Jan is an excellent photographer with a great eye for spotting that perfect shot that most others would
easily miss. She knows how to set the stage for a great shot when it appears to most that one does not even exist, and she has a great deal of tried and true experience behind and in front of a camera. Jan is also the team´s bookkeeper and managing partner. Jan´s interests span from health, fitness, and nutrition, and on into all sorts of creative and visual arts, including photography.

Nick C. Casale Nick, Photographer and Visual Artist: Nick C. Casale was born and raised on Long Island, New York. Hometown is Plainview and he lived there until he was 19 years old. Nick grew up loving art, making jewelry, playing with photography (had a small basement darkroom and a bunch of different cameras), writing creative song lyrics, and lifting rusty old weights in the basement. In December of 1979 Nick moved to California, lived there for a few months, and then joined the USAF (worked with and on Minuteman Missiles, 60 to 120 feet underground, and with nukes). While serving for about 7 years Nick´s creative side went essentially dormant.
Nick became very technical and analytical, and he dug into computers and aviation/aerospace, including commercial aviation, and he traveled world-wide. He spent 18 years in aviation/aerospace, also served as a volunteer firefighter, owned a small computer support and Web design company [Legacy Data Solutions (LDS), L.L.C. - also designed logos, brochures, business cards, all sorts of graphics, animation, and training videos], and later a personal training/life coaching business called Creative Common Sense, L.L.C. Most recently, Nick finally started getting back into his creative roots with 2020 Visual Studios. Nick has literally gone from dark rooms and underground places to state-of-the-art digital photography and an above ground world of smiles, beautiful people, and beautiful places.

Several people have asked us what a Visual Artist is. We define a Visual Artist as someone who develops a picture in their mind´s eye for what something could look like, or already is, while others may be missing it. Obviously a Visual Artist creates visual art, of all kinds (photos, paintings, sculptures, etc.). But to help clarify things, and add in a piece to our definition, the 2020 Visual Studios team member who creates the scene for a photo shoot is also a Visual Artist. Setting the stage, or the scene, for one of our "creative" photo shoots does require a true Visual Artist. It also requires a person who can balance setting the stage and controlling the scene or environment while also allowing it, and the people in it, to flow freely and enjoy the natural creativity or scene that appears. It can be a very challenging balance, but well worth our above-and-beyond, best effort that we put into each and every photo session.
