Once you go black you can't go back. The Porsche edition

[Chin.Up]

I wanted to try out a different kind of photoshoot so me and my buddy decided to do a shoot in the snow with his Porsche C4S.

Let me know what you guys think, I love hearing comments and constructive criticism. :)

Contrast issues with 5 & 7?? Nice lighting with 4. #1 seems like an oversharpened mess.

Went black with cars...quickly went back.

Wives...different story. ;)

My brain is screaming for the car to move another 8' to camera left in #3 so the wall is solid behind the car. Don't need to see the atrium or stairwell or whatever that is.

Yeah for 5 and 7 I had to lighten up the pic in photoshop in order to bring out the car, or else it would of been wayyy too dark.

For 1 it was originally slightly blurry and I cropped alot off cause we were shooting in a lot where there were soo many distractions (Cars... Recyle bins... etc) so I sharpened. If I didn't it just didn't seem right...

That is actually a skyscraper. We couldn't move more left cause the snow bank would of ended. I really liked the snow bank as a backdrop for the car.


And thanks for the comments. Keep em coming!!!

the outside shots need to be darken a little... too "light" if that sounds right.

Well, now it's wayyy too light. #7 is poorly framed (who needs to see the building?), but has some nice highlights in it. Make the car black while keeping those highlights.

beautiful car beautiful shots, you need to spend a week at Camp 4 with Porsche for their snow/winter driving school
