Formula DRIFT Irwindale 2012

The final round of the Formula DRIFT 2012 season took place as usual at “The House of Drift” in Irwindale, California. It was an awesome event and I got to meet a bunch of people that I’ve been meaning to meet face-to-face for quite some time. I also rented a Nikon D4 to cover the event (big thanks to BorrowLenses.com) and really put it through its paces, which I’ll review later on.  Until then, here are links to all of […]

Yin-Yang Lexus GS300s

Last weekend, I took a couple photos immediately following NWMotiv’s inMotion Car Show and Drift Event. It was a favor for my friend Kenji (who owns the white Lexus) and he just wanted a couple quick pics.

Andrew’s Subaru RSTI for Modified Magazine

Be sure […]

Jag's Lamborghini Murciélago

Jag’s Lamborghini Murciélago

A few years ago, I shot Jag’s Porsche 911 Turbo for TunerZine, and it was just crazy luck that Mackey ended up shooting his Lamborghini Murciélago. Since this was Mackey’s shoot for iForged Wheels, I was just there to tag along and assist. I still got my shots in and I’m very happy with how they turned out. I tried a few new editing techniques and I’d have to say this is probably my most polished set of automotive photos […]

Independence Day 2012

My yearly ritual to capture the fireworks over Gasworks Park was a bit different this year, since our good friend Eugene had moved out of state and thus we couldn’t use his roof. Instead, we braved the parking and traffic to secure a spot on the shores of Lake Union as we had a few years ago. After waiting about 6-7 hours and eating our fill of barbecue, we were greeted by what in my opinion was the best fireworks […]
