Shot this for Upper Class magazine and got to work with Kevve, real cool guy. http://www.upperclassmagazine.com/
The owner of this was real cool, the first time we shot we drove way way east of vegas so we could get a good view of the strip, then it started raining really heavily. So i only got 2 shots, it sucked too because i have never seen the sky looking the way it did after the rain had stopped. You can see in 2 of the shots he has different wheels.

Your shots are stunning on the reg. Great set. Wish I could give some helpful critique, but they're too good ahhah.

[TilenLicen]

awesome!!!

[Cole_Schmitt]

Do you use natural lighting for all of your shot, Anthony?

[MikeFairbanks]

Good shots. Might want to add a bit more contrast.

The curtains make it look spooky to me, kind of like a funeral car (hearse). Is that a gangsta thing?

[bigpow]

wow, great shots!
Love #1.
BTW, were those tire marks real?

Cool shots Anthony! That rig shot is dope!

Its a VIP thing. Unfortunately the VIP theme does nothing for the appearance of an already hideous car.
Absololutely awesome shots though. I like your style.

That's very nice work! I especially like the light on #2 & 4. Gotta' wonder what the location in #5 has to do with upper class? Urban renewal? ;)

[RadAL]

shame he is taking a USDM car and making it JDM (:S) But as for the shots, they are excellent!

i have to disagree. i never liked xb's but this one is sweet. not to mention the shots are amazing!

Well as far as xb's are concerned, it's not bad. The fact that he is trying to turn his usdm car into a idk trendy car is annoying. I wish people would just build cars the way the want and not lurk on car forums waiting for a new trend.

I never downplayed the shots. They rock! He actually probably made the car look better.

thanks everyone for the comments, this time i did use all natural lighting, for black cars i usually do, i just make sure the cp is turned at just the right direction so a little light comes through to show a hint of reflection.

oh and yeah those tire marks are real :)

lol about the location in 5. I was having a hard time thinking of a location for this shoot!

[Yanito]

I'm about to throw my 1D mk2 away and start to do somethin different.. Chess, Scrabble ?? anyone

Great shots... Didn't know that Mr Kevve launched his own web magazine

I don't normally like the new xb's - as they are fatter, heavier and slower. I also don't like the aero package treatment they did with them. But, with this one, it's definitely got style.

I have an original xb, which is much lighter, faster and more boxy...

Anyways, I love the shots, Anthony.
