Shawn's Mustang... again!

This shot was taken last Wednesday and I've only looked through a few. This exposure came out the best so I opened it up in CS3 and started editing. It took me about 30 minutes to get to the final picture. The only things I did were remove the rig, fix the color of the car, remove the rig reflections on the car, and cloned in new paint. After that, I burned around the area of the car to dramatize the photo a bit.

Before and After photos

Productive Sunday!

I covered 2 events today starting at 11am til 5p. I came home burnt and exhausted. The temperature gauge on my car read 100F throughout the day. Gotta love Houston weather...




The first event was for UrbanSpeed (click on picture to view gallery)


















..and the next was Fabricated Motorsports Drift Event (click on picture to view gallery)

Marvin's BMW E30 325i!

Here are a few photos from Marvin's photo shoot awhile back. The locations used were different parts of downtown Houston. This was probably the first time I've used strobes in broad daylight. Thank you for CPL and ND filters :D

Annie Hwang!

I tagged along with Harrison again because he promised a photoshoot for a friend, Annie. I didn't really feel like shooting so I just helped out with the lighting. I took a strobist shot though and it didn't come out too bad.

All Team Bash Car Meet v.2009!

The team bash had a better turnout than I had thought. Most of the known and small teams of Houston gather together at Bear Creek Park to just kick back and bbq!

New Shoes!

Picked up some new shoes over the past month. Left to right: Puma El Rey, Nike Dunk Pro SB's Spiderman, and Nike Zoom Lebron VI Low

Cindy N. Pictures!

I haven't taken posed modeling type pictures in so long that I forgot how hard it actually is. A friend of mine, Harrison, invited me a long to help him shoot Cindy since he's still a noob to photography. She was a great subject to shoot and I enjoyed it. I still need to learn how to create more flattering poses though. Every time we finished one pose I would run out of ideas. Hopefully, next time I will be able to direct better. Some more info on Cindy is that she's a sophomore at UH trying to get into the pharmacy program. She also told me she'd like to do more of these types of shoots if she were paid =P
