Morning all,

I know there has been a couple of others on here that have tried this, so figured I'd give it a try. I'm looking to get into photography professionally but I'm very much in the practice practice practice and building a portfolio of images stage. I'm just seeing if anyone has a car/bike/whatever they're proud of and can spare me a few hours of their time. Anything considered, however I do have a lot of BMW's already, so would rather other marques at the moment. Also a lot of my shots so far are of static vehicles, so i'd like to try and get more mobile shots, so the car/bike/whatever would ideally be moving.

Here is the kind of stuff I take, I'm not a big fan of overly photoshopped images.





There are other images on my Facebook page HERE feel free to take a look and please 'like' and 'share' should you feel inclined.

I'm just in need of some things to shoot, so if you want some shots get in touch. Either message me through the Fb page or send me a message through here.

Cheers all,
Graeme

Just a huge thanks to everyone that has got in touch today. I'm going to say for now I've got enough to keep me occupied until I go to The States (first world problems hey).

I'll shoot those that have got in touch, and open this up again in November. Watch this space or the Facebook page for some of the pictures.

Cheers.

Franky84 came to my place today. I don't have a very elaborate car place, but I have to say what a nice bloke. Really enjoyed having the photos taken, and was an interesting experience.

Best of luck Frank
Thanks very much! I had a great day. Results to follow...

Hi. Following Frankys visit to our workshop, I thought I'd share a personal favorite from the collection of photos dropped into my inbox. We were in the middle of changing a set of discs and pads (and other things) on an Alfa 156, and these were just lying on the floor, waiting to be scrapped. (In fact they still are lying on the floor) frown

Really simple subject matter, but the composition is superb, in my humble opinion.
Thanks for the kind words bearman, was an enjoyable day. Here are a few of my favorites

Hello all, I just had an enjoyable couple of hours having Franky84 snapping my car. I'm really looking forward to seeing the results.

Thanks again Franky.

Dan
Cheer Dan, was an enjoyable couple of hours, and what a car you have! I'll post up some of the results soon...

Spent a couple of hours with Graeme today while he took pictures of my ZT and a mate's ZS. Very likeable and enthusiastic chap-hopefully he can turn his hobby into a career. Sure he'll be along at some point to post up some of the pictures.
Thanks very much. I'll be editing everything over the next few days, so will update the thread with the results!

Afternoon all, just to keep you all up to date. Here are some from the shoot I had with Mack42 this weekend just gone. What a car is all I can say!

As I've already said, I have responded to everyone on the thread, so if you were expecting a reply and haven't had one just check your "junk" mailbox.

Cheers.

Morning all, I've just realised I've not updated this after seeing itcaptainslow. Here is a decidedly autumnal take on an MG ZT





Those that have already been in touch, i'll message you again to find a time to meet up.

Jag XJ6, BMWK1200GT, Series Land Rover, 1957 Plymouth. Any use?
Hi Mr Spock, i've sent you a couple of emails. Are these still a possibility? Thanks

If people haven't heard from me, check your 'junk' box, a lot seem to have found themselves in there. I'm trying to sort all these cars before I ask for more.
