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

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

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

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
