Katie’s WRX Wagon

There are very few cars that seem to universally appeal to the masses, and I’m fortunate enough that I was able to photograph one of them for NWMotiv last month.  I was also fortunate to have a rented D800 to play with for the shoot as well, which impressed me in just about every way possible.  We did a full feature on Katie’s car that you can find here on NWMotiv: https://www.nwmotiv.com/cars/red-rumble-rush/ Among those photos, here are a few of […]

Behind the scenes of PROPS! — “The Taste of Heaven”

Alan’s Do-Luck Evo 8

It’s been a long time since I’ve had the opportunity to just shoot a car without any time constraints, deadlines, or expectations.  Alan and I caught a break in the weather on Sunday night and despite having my SB-600 and umbrella on stand blown down by the wind, the photos still turned out great and Alan was very happy with the outcome.  I also used this opportunity to test out the Nikkor 85mm ƒ1.4G that I rented from BorrowLenses and it […]
