Photoshoot for WHATEVER YOU WISH, expanding portfolio

hey all,

I am starting to build a more profound portfolio, besides cinematography, I am expanding my creativity into the field of photography. I have been shooting with DSLR's for a good two solid years. Many of you have seen my photos on here and maybe even my Flickr Portfolio. I am looking to shoot for anyone in the area, as long as you let me know in advance. You can pick the kind of style you'd like your car to be shot in. HDR is widely popular and if that is what you like, sure! Most of the time I am in Downtown LA and going to USC for Communications and Cinematic Production. Hit me up! Let me know guys, PM me or IM me on AIM ocrapit2leon. You can pay me whatever you'd like. $1 - $1,000,000,000 hahaha

My Gear so far:
Cameras:
Sony Alpha-100 (will upgrade to Alpha-700 soon)
Sony R1

Lenses:
Sony f4.5-5.6/75-300 1.5m/4.9ft MACRO
Sony f3.5-5.6/18-70
Carl Zeiss Sony f3.5-4.5/16-80 Vario-Sonnar DT T*

Flash:
Sony R1-Only External Flash

Programs:
Aperture
Adobe Photoshop CS3
Adobe Photoshop Lightroom
Photomatix Pro

Here are some sample shots (you can visit my flickr, which is under my sig):
buddy's E92 shot in Bavarian Exclusive's garage


An example of a Raw-HDR shot of friend's M3


Here's a shot of my car


Another shot of buddy's E92, this time outdoor


friend's BRABUS SLK


Buddy's RX8 in the parking lot of my Apartment in Downtown LA


My own E92 on a field


Again


Friend's Audi


Advan's


These are only samples that happened to be edited already.
Remember, if you want a shoot or knows of someone who does, feel free to hit me up!
Thanks for viewing!

Very nice photography, the one I particularly like is the rear of the porsche with near violet heads. Thanks for the eye candy!
