having "nuthinspecial" as your company name probably won't attract much business lol jk

What camera are you using?

Invest in a tripod. Also be aware of your background. Try to stay away from things like poles sticking out from behind the car. In pic 5, turn the wheel the other way. Pic 2 is the best of the bunch.

photos are ok at best. i'd lose the graffiti font for your company...makes you look like a 15 year old.

All of them are nice pics, but I will concur, #2 is the best. I like the composition of the 6th one as well, but I think it would be better in color. Just my .02.

I like the last pic the best but i agree change your signature, it is distracting from the picture. small and simple is best.

haha, I appreciate all these comments guys - I just do this for a hobby, not really a business.

Keep in mind I've only been doing this for 3 days now, but I agree with everything - Practice makes perfect.

I was in weatherford, tx - but now i'm stationed in Phoenix AZ.

As for the camera - I'm using a Canon Rebel XTI.

what kind of font did you use for your logo in your pictures?

read this with the understanding that i am trying to help you out.

As mentioned, watch your background and get a tripod, why the tripod, it will get rid of any camera shake, static shots are best done from a stable tripod. learn to control your camera, get what you want out of it.

watch your aperture settings, the first shot, the background is too in focus for what it looks like you were trying to do. open your aperture, reduce your focal plane, and get a good blur on the background, since it is so distracting.

watch your lighting, while the 2nd is the best of the lot, your light source is on the other side of the car, making your focal side in the shade. that makes for a tough exposure, and a blown out sky if you expose for the car.

keep working at it, it is a great hobby.

I appreciate it bud, I'm still doin a ton of tutorials figuring out how to use the camera and such.

As far as the font, it's from dafont.com its one of the "most popular" ones.
