What was the light source for this? I would have liked to seen the windshield gobo'd so that it wasn't so bright. It's drawing my eyes away from the hot model. lol

Her foot is larger and brighter than her head, but other than that, I like it.

I agree with PP but the background doesn't do much for me either.

 

[joeymas]

I simply use the sun and reflectors. In Fashion, "over exposure" is in.

We actually made the cover with this one

Is there a car in that shot somewhere? Wowzers.

Seriously I can't believe that they didn't pick the one of her in the drivers seat for the cover. She's a knockout! man she's hot, and the image is awesome too.

I go through this all the time, who knows why they pick the ones they do.

I figure because they need to put text around the photo when it comes to the cover.

Same thing with the light exposure. Every media company has diff rules and wants.

I just say "ok" lol

She is really beautiful and an artist as well. I got to shoot with Stacia 3 times for normal shoots and once for her Dance Team on location.

Great person.

i agree the one in the driver seat is the best

Wow-How do you get access to these unbelievable cars?

I make deals. I contact the dealerships and tell them that if they can donate a vehicle, I will either mention them in the layout or give them shots they can use for advertising.

I never get to just take a car off the lot. They send an employee to escort the vehicle.

The models are under strict rules about touching the cars as is everyone on the set. Things like rings, belts, heals all need to be addressed as I will be held for any damages.

That day we had close to $280,000.000 worth of cars there and about 40 or so people from the park just watching the shoot. I was a lil nervous.

To date I have done about 7 supercar shoots. I am addicted!

These are the guys from the Ferrari and Porsche Dealerships - I love his hat...

Where do you even find those models? I envy you, I would kill for an opportunity like this. How did you go about convincing the dealership the first time? And then how did you convince the models? I just have no idea how to even go about trying to find models.

lol, have you seen my site?

"convince" ? The client gives you a budget. So as far as models go, it is best to send out a casting call and pay them.

The dealers I have used so far have all welcomed the idea.

So far I have worked with over 174 models. Now, when I need somebody I just go through my list to see who fits the shoot. Once you work with a model and build trust, they are happy to work with you again.

My girlfriend is also a makeup artist so I get a discount there too.

Here is a shot I did for an Arizona Yamaha Dealer (Bill Board)
