Rig Photoshoots
#1
Hey everyone,

First post under this username because I can no longer remember my password from my old account. Some of you might know me already but anyway, down to business.

I have a photography rig for cars and I am looking for volunteers that might want to meet up and let me get some pictures of their car(s) for practice. I haven't used the rig all that much yet and I really need to figure out its quirks (angles, mounting points, time of day, exposure length, etc).

After, when I post images you can feel free to use the images from my facebook as you like. If you would like to buy posters/prints from me that would be fantastic, but I am completely not expecting you to. The images that I will post will be roughly 1600px wide.

1 or 2 cars maximum at a time would be ideal. Too many cars at once and it begins to get exhausting and when that happens pictures start to loose effort. Also, time becomes a factor.

I feel the ideal time would be golden hour, the hour around sunset/sunrise.

I live in Harrisonburg so I will be around all summer. If you would like to set something up let me know. Here are a couple examples of what I have taken so far. Good in my opinion, put I need more practice.

We can also take other pictures too, but I need to focus on practicing with the rig.

So, any volunteers?

EDIT: Rig mounts with large suction cups, I'll clean the car/suction cup prior to mounting. Rid shots are taken with the car off, we'll just be pushing it, so you won't have to worry about damage to you car/rig at speed.

I'd be down. Might be in town after the 4th. I'd also be interested to learn some, pretty cool how you can convey motion with these types of shots.
