PH Studio Shoot....Updated
Discussion
As some of you may know, the PH offices are based at Haymarket HQ in Teddington, which is also home to the rather large LAT photographic studio.
The LAT studios are purpose built for car photography, and houses literally all of the kit that pro- photographers need to take any type of car picture. Not only are the studios used for magazines such as Autocar and What Car, they are also used for bespoke shoots for car manufacturers, scoop shots of unreleased cars and all types of racing cars too.
The chief studio photographer Pete asked me if PHers would be interested in bringing their cars along on a Saturday to shoot in the studio. You would need to bring your own camera but Pete would be on hand to give tutorials and offer tips and guidance throughout the day. You will also be able to use the lights and all other studio equipment as you wish, along with some of the lenses that LAT use to get specific shots.
Pete thinks that 4/5 cars would be the maximum on the day, but we would run sessions throughout the year based on demand. A charge will be made, and while we haven't worked out the exact costs yet, I guarantee that it will be very reasonable indeed.
Can I ask if anyone would be interested in this? Obviously we would like to gauge the number of people that are potentially interested before we forge ahead with the plans and make it happen.
Pete is also an experienced motorsport photographer, and we may be able to organise trips to race meets in the future where Pete will offer live tutorials at the circuit

No problem on the car front as at least one of the 5 or so people invited on the day will have a great car, but if not then we can always get one in to use.
If you do join us for the day, then you will shoot for the entire day. Everyone will shoot all of the cars, and will get plenty of time behind the camera.

I'd be interested but I'd probably be after an entire day, rather than quick 1hr burts. I know how to light and to take photos of car but not in a studio! (see profile for webby).
Wot 'e said!
