I have a Porsche 911 (see my profile pic) and the other half also has a 911 (964) in Guards Red. We'd be interested and just up the coast from you, in the Worthing area. We'd be willing to travel down to Brighton.

Just wanted to let you all know that I've not given up. Things have just been really busy lately so I've not had loads of time to shoot.

Those of you that I've already agreed to shoot, I will be in touch as soon as I can.

I have now shot one PH'er though:
One

Thanks for the kind words there Nicksy. I didn't manage to get to Sushi Sunday in the end.

Finally, after many failed attempts, I managed to meet up with FUBAR for a quick shoot of his hard as nails Cerbera.

Only have two shots online so far but will email them and hopefully any other good ones to you over the weekend mate.

I've also set up a website since my last update. Am I allowed to link it here? I will anyway! photomotive.org

RaeB, I'm still planning on getting in touch with you when I have the time, hopefully it'll be soon.

Hi mate, good to catch up finally. I dont remember it being THAT dark but loving the results.

Looking forward to seeing the rest smile

As has been said, anyone wanting some great photos of their cars, I have no hesitation in recommending Alastair thumbup

Some great shots again Al! Made Foobs banana boat look rather tasty!

I'd love to have you take a few shots of all of mine for my own personal collection but I'd imagine you'd want an interesting subject matter when putting together a shoot rather than an Astra, old repmobile & a pikey wagon laugh

Yeah, amazing what you can do with a couple of flash guns and a bit of know-how isn't it. I'm really glad you like the results.

Ironic, I'm not going to do any more freebie shots past what I've already promised people I'll do. If you want to hire me though I'll take pictures of whatever you have. One of your pikewagons was hassling us when we were shooting the Cobra tongue out It was, unsurprisingly, full of pikeys!!

Would all depend on where I have to go and what you want (prints, just jpegs etc). Email me at info AT photomotive.org and we can discuss it further if you like.

I do have a few packages in mind so would be good to run them by some prospective customers.

Surely that would damage the lens?

You would say that as your car's all over it! Can you email me the guys number or email address and I'll see if we can work anything out.

Diablo Pete - please email me, info@photomotive.org and we'll sort something out for you.

Hi Nick, Great car and great pics. Looking forward to getting mine done.
You shoul have asked around, someone would have pointed me out. Or you could have just dropped a hamburger on the floor, I'd have caught it before it landed.
