A Quick Morning Shoot

Oh man, dang Tori Blackwell woke me up at 7 am on a school night for this, I was extremely tired and really had no idea what was going on. That was a bad thing that day. I am not pleased at all with this set, I feel like I really lacked creativity and just everything. It was my 2^nd time shooting with my 50mm and still wasn’t quite familiar on how to use it, so many pictures came out unfocused, I need to get off the habit of using the auto focus finder on my d700 haha. It doesn’t work well under 2F.

Well to introduce you to these girls, the blonde, Shannon, the brunette, Courtney. Shannon happen to be a model for some Scottsdale Jeans company, so I didn’t really have to instruct what she had to do, she’s a complete natural at what she does, and does it extremely well. We worked together well and she was really easy to get along with.

Surprisingly this is Courtney’s very first time taking pictures like this, I was very surprised how easy it was for her to pose, and she was very easy to work, which is always a big plus.

Sorry no big blog post on this set, this day was mainly to get Tori shoot with my 50mm and show her some tips.

Heres some Pics

Let's just say I didn't forget anything this time! To put it simply, the first time we met up for this shoot at one o'clock in the morning, things did not go right. We had everything set up; the car, flashes, everything. I pull out my camera, and the camera feels a little light to me. I press softly on the shutter and I hear no focus. I forgot the battery. Grrr. Round 2! I put everything out on my counter, and made sure I had everything before I left. I loaded up with full batteries and tripods. I headed out around 12 a.m. This time, Bri was the one holding everything up. She didn't show up until 1 a.m., but seriously, can you blame her?

First off, this car is just stunning in person. It's absolutely unique in every possible way, from the zebra stripe airbag cover, to the insane poke in the rear. I love it all. The car is painted flat with, with black SSR Professors. The contrast between the two is just perfect. The fitment cannot get any better. There is just too much to list on this car, but the best part about it is it actually gets drifted, and by Brianna Peebles. Yes, for all you guys out there, she is a girl, and yes, she is taken. I always happen to run into her at every event where she is always actively participating.
