Would an of the super car owners on here be willing to let me spend a day with their car(s) to photograph them? Like you drive out to the locations I ride along and I'll bring Cannon Rebel.
My cousin owned a R53 GT-R 2012. He let me photograph it on his lunch break.
I just want the chance to take some really awesome photos of Super cars that are not on a show room floor.
Anyone willing to let me?
Here is some of my work.
(My 2011 Mustang GT)
(Cousins GT-R)
(2013 Brickyard Conti Tire Race)
(2013 Lamborghini Aventador @ STL Motorcars)
(Maserati GranTurismo @ 2013 STL Auto Show)
(Mustang RTR @ STL Auto Show 2014)
That's just some of my work. And honestly I'll photograph just about any car as long as I can see it to get ideas in my head.

I'd fly you out to NJ to drive and photo my '84 Testarossa, but I don't own a testarossa. Sorry.

You should take pictures of average cars with the same care and skill as those. Not boring, bland cars, and not beaters either, but somewhere in between. That would make for a pretty neat little niche to fill. Making dull cars as beautiful to everyone as they are to their owners.

If anyone accepts, I actually might join you. I'll bring my D7000 and see what shots we can get.

I dunno. Just use aggressive angles like with that Aventador and maybe play with the lighting and such. It's probably not as cool as I'm thinking it would be, but you never know.

Dude that would be awesome. I need to get into some more car photography cause it's so fun.
But nah I'm not going. I'm gonna be in Columbia cause a bunch of my friends are graduating from Mizzou haha

Here is the other one they had at the show this year.
I wish they had another aventador on the showroom floor but they sold them all.

Not surprising! People who can afford supercars treat Lamborghinis like we peasants treat iPhones. Gotta have the newest edition, you know?

I don't have a super car but I do have 5 cars. If you add them up do they become super? Either way if you make it on down to Austin you can drive and photograph the following: (youngest to oldest)
2013 Ford Focus ST
2001 Jeep Cherokee 2-Door
1995 Dodge Stealth Lemons Racer
1992 Mazda Miata with 1.8L Swap
1953 Willys Jeep M38A1

So, you're going to spend a day with someone's supercar and take a bunch of poorly-composed, poorly-lit, poorly-exposed photos? I know I'm being a dick but you need to get the basics down. Shooting a more interesting car won't make your photos better. Go out with your own car and start practicing.
