Free Professional Photoshoot Before Sept 18th

[p0kerface]

Background Story (optional reading)

I am an LA based photographer living in Sydney for the past few months. My original plan was to make a life for myself here in Sydney and eventually pick up an R34 but that didnt work out. Long story short, it's been four months without a job and Sydney is expensive! I've run out of money so I've got to go home soon but since there are no R34's in LA I thought I'd at least take some nice shots while I'm still here. So here I am...

The Characters

I'm looking for one or two modified R34 turbo coupés of different colors. It's important that the cars are modified because that's the theme I'm going for in my portfolio. I can shoot more than two but on separate days. I'm not looking to have models in front of the car BUT I can work that in after wards once the car shots have been done.

The Gig

The plan is to take a juxtaposed shot of the two cars together and some solos for the owners. The session should last from sunset till night. I was thinking of two possible locations, one with the city/urban background and one with an operahouse/harbor bridge backdrop. The more cars I get to shoot the more I can get creative with backgrounds. It will take a 2-3 hours for a decent set of photos. I'm leaving on Sept 19th so the shoot will have to be before that date. Since I'm the newbie to this forum and you have been going to meets for years it should be easy for you to find another R34 before then!

The Take

You get hi-resolution (printable) professional photos to show everyone. Your car will be in my portfolio. The photos you get will be retouched and pretty much look like this...

Details

I live in Potts Point and have no car so we'll have to keep the photoshoot local to central Sydney or near a train station. E-mail the following to [email protected]:

• when you're available for the shoot

• some sort of contact info

• year/color

• photo of your car

• list of mods (leave out stuff i cant photograph like differentials etc)

BTW: for those nay sayers—just to prove I'm actually who I say I am, here's my flickr photo blog documenting my travels and also where you'll find the photos I've linked above.

yes and no, I didnt specify just exterior mods because things like exhaust, intercooler, racing seats, roll cage and suspension also add to how the car looks.
