Anyone in the South Bay (Silicon Valley) area want their car photographed?

radiantm3 · 09-05-2010, 03:20 AM

I know this is a strange offer and I'm not trying to take away work from those who do this for a living. I'm an amateur photographer and have been shooting as a hobby for like 5 years. I'm looking to gain more experience in automotive photography and build my portfolio a bit. There's only so many photos you can take of your own car.

I just want to try this out a few times and see how it goes.

Anyways, if anyone is interested, lives in the area, and has a tastefully modded M3, I'd love to schedule a shoot sometime. I'd rather not shoot completely stock cars as everyone has seen them already. Plus I'll have plenty of opportunities to shoot my "stock" M3 when it arrives in a few months.

The shoot will probably take about 1-2 hours of your time and it would be best if you had your car washed sometime before the shoot. Best time would be on an evening before the sun goes down. I get to use your photos in my portfolio (license plate numbers will be removed), and you get 5-10 high res photos of your car.

Here's a sample of my work:

Thanks.

I have a shoot booked this week so we'll see how it goes. Do you have ZCP? That could tempt me.

I've got a distastefully modified m3 if you're willing to change you're mind.
