Ben, I haven't seen you post since I think Accessphoto a while ago -- you're lighting is superb man. I'm drooling all over my laptop here

wow thanks man.

yea, i havent posted much of my work for a while now. but i need to improve, and start showing more of what i do, so i will try to be posting more here for a little more critique and whatnot.

how have you been?

i need to update my site like crazy man. im going to start adding a blog there about my out of town shooting trips and more!

Those pictures are awesome... the car is pretty cool too but, i can agree with the above comment about the hood. It fits so poorly. Kinda takes away from the car.

I even noticed you do weddings too! Go for the money man!!!

The hood is up in the rear on purpose, to vent heat. Intake temps will go down 15deg across the board on a data long during dyno sessions with this method. I think im the only one who enjoy the looks of it. While alot of people do it for looks, that "jdm" look from what the people who dont know much say, it actually works.

5/8 washers in the back to "raise" the rear mounting position of the hood.

weddings are ok, just a way for some extra money local. imo to shoot weddings, you have to feel people.

i will say its not for everyone with a camera.

RHC [raised hood club] FTW. AHA! CLEANN hatch. My little brother just picked one up.

WOW.......nice car!!! and SICK shots! well done!

Excellent lighting! What's your setup, if you don't mind letting us know?

Interesting, I actually had this car on my desktop earlier this week.

Nice shots!

This was with my old setup, but it was a STe2 with 2 580's and no filters or boxes. It was 10-11am in the morning and it went from sunny to pouring rain with the quickness.

Thank you everyone for the replies. I will have to post more of my work here very soon.
