Lexus photoshoot for SEMA 6 cars......
 

So I recently went to LA to do a shoot for Lexus and man it was hard work i drove in from Vegas and basically had 2 hours sleep, we got up at 4.45am and drove to the location, the Lexus truck was late and we only had one car so me and the video people were sharing one car, which was kind of hard. luckily the truck turned up with the other cars. So Lexus wanted a griity, water element to the pics. At first i thought the location was great then after 3 cars it was limiting! I had to get 6 pics of each car. this was the hardest and fastest i have ever worked. My hands were black by the end of the day! and then i drove back to Vegas finally at 10pm getting back at 1am after drinking lots of red bull and 5 hour energy!!

Anyway here are the pics

I was shooting a a lot of these in direct sunlight which was hard managing the reflections....but overall im happy with the pics!

awesome, although the flat red with flat black looks fake for some reason.

Great pics Anthony...I'm liking the green, red and black cars pics the best.

^ the background is not clear

nice pics

That's hot.

Blurry background = "bokeh" in photospeak.

Nice grabs!,

I'm really partial to the 3/4 front view. (1st white pic, Red& black pic).

Everything looks nice and clean except for the pics of the copper car. I find myself a bit too distracted by the backgrounds, you could always alter that in PS tho.

I hear you on that one!
It kinda sucked because I really had to use my head with that one because basically I had used the whole location at the time of shooting that car. They wanted the water element too. In an ideal world I would have shot that car at 7am when we got there, the sun rise was great and there was a really nice haze over the background, it was beautiful. But it doesn't work out as you want it to so had to make it work.

Thanks everyone for the comments :)

great pics man. i didnt even know is250/350s verts existed.

great pics bro ... for some reason i think the is convertibles are butt ugly when the top is up but with it down theyre not that bad still not as good as the 3 but oookkk ... great pics nonetheless

Pics look great, I was hoping they would have sent ya an LF-A to shoot :)

Purple IS300 FTW.

Beautiful car that one. The shots of all the rest are very nice, but not as big a fan of the cars.

i dont get as much emotion from these shots as i usually do with your work, but still very nice. probably just all your restrictions and stuff.

Wow.. These pics are amazing.

Amazing pics, I wish I had your skills.

OP i am never disappointed by your threads :)

i like the green one a lot, especially with the green lexus badge (but without the marketing sticker)

I really like the green and red one. The red one has eye lids + brows lol. It reminds me of these guys for some reason:

Wow loving the last gen IS. I also like white one, but the hood, 0-60 sticker, along with teh all the other stickers + the black bar destroyed the look of the car.

but as for picture, man all of them look awesome. love your skill amair

thanks all@!!!!!!!!

I have to agree 100%, shots are awesome! I'm really drawn to that green color, I usually think green is a bit much, but that one looks great. If it was my car though, I'd go with charcoal alcantara interior with green contrast stitch like a Lambo :) I need to learn how to take photos half as good as yours :)

Wow. If only l had that talent!

Nice job!

Great shots! I like number 5,8 and 9-11. The old Is beautiful with those mesh wheels. The copper Is 350 vert is nice. Keep up the good work!

thanks all!
