Erica May at Magnuson Park

Erica’s been great to work with and hang out with since our first initial shoot, and now we’ve got another small one under our belts.  We didn’t have much time to prepare, so this entire shoot took less than about 30 minutes total.  Despite the short time frame, I think they all came out pretty good, and Erica’s happy with them.  Each of these was shot with my D300 and either my 85mm ƒ1.8 or my my 50mm ƒ1.4.

As I’ve grown older, having absolute power and street superiority were no longer a priority for me; I’d rather have a nice, classy crusing car than a boy-racer fast car.  I made a […]

Fine Line Imports in Santa Rosa, CA

The nice guys at Fine Line Imports flew me down to Santa Rosa, CA last Saturday to take some snaps of their own and customer cars.   I can only post a few here since we’re trying for publication, but here’s a few to share. Ryan, Miles, and Steve really do some top-notch work. They really know their stuff and it was great to hang with them for a day!
