So a local photographer got a hold of me and offered me a photoshoot. I had seen his work and I couldn't resist and meet up with him. We had rescheduled many times and finally decided to do it yesterday. I hope everyone enjoys these pictures!

bro please don't ruin my pics like that :(

The last pic looks like twister weather...

Ya it looks like a funnel cloud would be forming in that last pic

Awesome pics!! Was the shoot a decent price?

bro please don't ruin my pics like that :(

i don't know, i think tat looks hot, just went from a hot pic to a hot wallpaper =D

those pics are sweet...:)

Lose the sunroof deflector, slap on some clear corners and you have perfection

i don't know, i think tat looks hot, just went from a hot pic to a hot wallpaper =D

Well it's just that I don't like it when people alter my work without my permission, that's all :) Hopefully that is understandable. Though I do know what look he was trying to achieve, though in the process it ended up being burnt. Either way thanks for the compliments and warm welcome to you and everyone :D

^ wow a professional photographer who knows what he is doing, I am honestly impressed, no sarcasm. I think they are rare.

Making a copy/editing of something does not "steal/take" the thing which is copied. Unlike literal piracy, giving my friend a copy of Microsoft Office doesn't violate the law against theft. To steal is to take away something from someone, so that he no longer has it. (Actually, stealing a car and returning it is still theft, but you get my drift.) Either way, I respect your work and I won't be editing anymore of your pictures. Even though, I had 4 other pictures I edited but did not post them. The one that I posted is the one that stood out to me the most, the rest of them aren't as you say "burnt".

nice

wats with "professional" photographer and their craziness with their own picture?... i just don't understand. oh wellz, this is why we all have our.. (at least i do) photograph crazy friends to take our photos.

wow nice pics, i like you lip and skirts, well matched

I agree, it is not stolen or taken. It is just what it is, altering someone's work, that's all :) I respect you for holding back on posting or further editing the other ones. Means a lot to me, so thank you very much. Because in the end there's nothing I can really do about it. Hope there is no animosity between us, though I am flattered you would think my pictures to be nice enough to edit hehe. Either way let's push this topic aside since it is settled :) Thank you again.

Some may consider it flattering, and some may not like it. But I don't think it's craziness if the owner would not like their images altered upon :). Either way you are right about the last part =P

I appreciate that very much, thank you.

Very nice. Overcast days always offer the best lighting!

BTW is that Audi an unaltered photo? If so, it's ridiculous!

Looks great. Sunlight silver has always been my fav color.

No, animosity.. I respect your decision and we'll just leave at that. Keep up the good work, and looking forward for more great pictures in the future! :)

Looks good. Complete the rear, and you're all set.

Hella Clean!

Looks good. Complete the rear, and you're all set.

Thanks for your compliment. I thought about it, but I like it the way it is. :)

I love the way your painted caliper is such a bright red. It just pops. Totally droolworthiness!

I am so glad the poles were red to match! lol

And I agree, even without a rear, it looks complete.

MIght be really late, but i really like the rims.. Very clean...

Thanks...I don't want to paint it because I like how it stands out on the car.

Is it possible to get wallpaper high res of these? they are damn good. major props

Nice!

You should think of doing silver calibers. My anni came with bright silver ones and it looks good.

nah i actually like the red calipers on silver and black cars with chrome wheels.. black calipers on grey, white, yellow, red

I was thinking about painting mine red because i have some chrome wheels with a lip, i like the reflections :P

U got a very fantastic photoshoot...
