I got word today that I'm shooting a group of 11 guys in Illinois with their exotics! Payout from this is unbelievable. I can pay the mortgage for 7 months lol. Best part of all. theses guys are all working during the week. They are all dropping the cars off at a local storage place that one of the owners uses with all the keys. My assistant and myself have full rights and approval to drive the cars to get to locations of our choosing. they all added our names to their insurance policies in case something happens.

BEST FUCKING DAY OF MY LIFE!

Cars that I will be shooting are as follows

Aston Martin DB9
Ferrari California x2
Ferrari F430 Coupe F1
(http://continentalautosports.com/inventory/details.aspx?id=NLIL0091.1/x9004&y=2010&d=Ferrari&m=California&tr=)Ferrari 612 Scaglietti
Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano F1
Lamborghini Gallardo x2
Lamborghini Murcielago
Ford GT
Dodge Viper SRT-10

this will be a 2 week project. Guys want full detailed shots of each car from static to rolling rig shots, at multiple locations.

they said if it takes longer than 2 weeks, they will pay me for more time.

again, BEST FUCKING DAY OF MY LIFE!

thanks guys, I really can't wait. I will start shooting start mid May pending on weather and greenery

One of the car owners is my uncle, so I landed this because of him. Now all the car owners are emailing me, asking questions and such.

One of the guys asked "can you take burnout shots for me" LOL

DB9 for sure. One of the best looking cars of all time other than a Bentley Continental GT IMO. Good luck with the shoot! I would be nervous as all hell behind the wheel of any one of those cars!

sounds like a good oppturnity, just remember to put up with some of the crazy requests these guys have sometimes. Some of the guys that I shoot for change cars like I change pants so it is good return business.

If your looking for another shooter let me know, Schools done in two weeks and getting a real job for the summer is looking pretty rough.

Wow, talk about the dream job! I would be a little nervous driving those cars, I have to admit. Love the email asking for burnout pics. lol

SWEET JESUS!!!! Congrats! One of these days if you don't mind, I'd like to tag along and check out your process and what not. I don't know crap about photograpy and am blown away by some of the shots from our couple of pro photograpers. I'll pm you later in the summer when I have a lil more time and see if thats ok.

Congrats again.


DO WORK KID!
