Over the past couple of years I've gotten into photography, mostly cars so far. I've done a few shoots for friends and local PHers, this is just a hobby really, certainly at this stage - I'm just trying to gain experience and build a portfolio, maybe turning it into something bigger down the line.

So if anyone in the general Aberdeenshire area or thereabouts would like some (hopefully) nice photos of their P&J in exchange for a little bit of their time then I'm on the lookout for more cars to shoot - pop me a PM smile A few examples of stuff I've done below, they should all be clickable and go through to my Flickr page with more shots:

Niall,

Great selection of pics and thanks again for doing the M6. The end results are absolutely fantastic!

Boyner,

I actually mentioned you to Niall as you have some very photogenic toys!!!

Everyone else,

I can highly recommend spending a few hours with Niall. He’s a thoroughly nice bloke and a car enthusiast to boot. He’s clearly very good at this hobby of his, I wouldn’t imagine it would be terribly long before he was able to monetise it in one way or another but for the time being he seems very happy just meeting other enthusiasts and honing his skills with different cars and environments!

Thanks. Yeah I’m hopeful it’s a simple enough fix. The sling and snow are hampering investigations but I’m sure I’ll get a chance next week.

Wow, thanks for all the comments and interest - I've started a list now and I've responded I think to everyone that PM'd so far so will get some dates and stuff organised soon. Thanks for the review as well James wink

@boyner - I've put you on the list as well, is your 911 away for winter or available any time? Group shoots could work too so long as the numbers are fairly low and a suitable location can be found - good excuse for a wee run out.

@swooshiain - whereabouts in Scotland are you?
