View Full Version : Gauging Interest on Photo Services for Reunion 2015

Since the cat is out of the bag that I'll be joining you all for the reunion I figured I'd gauge some interest on some heavily discounted photo services.

Depending on how many people are interested I will be bringing a full lineup of pro gear with me to do commercial style shoots of cars.

Here are a few examples (don't mind the Audi's ;) ):
http://static1.squarespace.com/static/5005f370e4b04d215561ddad/5005f55cc4aa41161b33e004/51d87587e4b03b00fe4823e8/1373140368564/_MG_0312-web-highres.jpg?format=600w

https://scontent-iad.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpt1/t31.0-8/10463860_660291187374008_3434245576679306589_o.jpg



So here is the deal. Shooting one of these commercial shots is about 20-30 minutes of work to get the lighting and all that on point, and then about 3-5 hrs on the back end of post processing. Because of that I am going going to offer these shoots in the following formats:

Commercial Pkg A - $100 - 1 hr shooting. You will get 2-3 fully edited commercial style, professionally lit shots of your car in digital format.

Commercial Pkg B - $60 - 30 min shooting. You will get 1 fully edited commercial style, professionally lit shot of your car in digital format.

"Walk Around" package - $100 - 30-45 min of shooting. You will get 6 normally edited shots of your car in a digital format. This package will be like a "highlights" of your car, still using pro lighting but a different more straightforward technique. It will include shooting overall exterior/interior as well as a few artistic detail shots of some items of your/my choice (i.e. wheels, brake calipers, angel eyes, CF pieces, ect...).


Depending on how many people want to take me up on the offer I might only have room for a half a dozen slots to also be able to participate in the weekends events but I am thinking Saturday afternoon, Saturday night (post dinner) and Sunday (I will be sticking around most of the day) will be fine to schedule shoots.


So if you are interested, please start a list. If not, no hurt feelings... I will be bringing only a camera to snap some stuff for myself and just enjoy everyones company over the weekend. :wub

I saw guys at Bimmerfest who used blue painter's tape on their whole front end as a temp bra.

Yeah, but the rest of the car would still need a wash after a long trip, so it's kind of a moot point IMO.

Lol.

Guys don't be too overly concerned with spots. As long as the car is generally "clean" from a car wash you won't notice much in the photos or I can add in some correction for trouble areas if needed.

Mike please let me know if you'd like a spot.

Likely only room for 1-2 more

Just so everyone has a general idea of whats happening...


Friday - I can do a few sunset/dusk/night shoots while we are all meeting up or outside around town as people are getting drinks. All depends how soon people arrive to Cincy area.

Saturday - I can do likely only one or a quick 2 after cars & coffee (maybe leave a little early from it) around downtown Cincy.
Then Dane set some time aside for another sunset or night shoot after our cruise.

Sunday - I don't plan on doing maintenance so I'm available to shoot first thing in the morning before everyone else has their car pulled apart. I will likely stick around until the mid afternoon or dinner time then head back to Chicago. I assume we will find locations around the maintenance day in the Mason area.

I'd love/call dibs on a golden hour shoot Friday or Saturday after the cruise. We are leaving early from Nova so we should be there in plenty of time. Just will need to bring the quick detail spray slash bug and tar remover...so many bugs.

yeah I've been scouting local hand wash places as well so no worries all that info will be available for everyone based upon locations.

As far as calling dibs, cool, but I want to make sure Fri/Sat are saved for people who might be leaving Sat night or ultra early Sunday. We will get that sorted out soon enough.

Official Time Slots

Friday 6/5
Shooting at or near McClure Park in Mason.
7pm - BP Commercial A
8pm - Ryan (Whitexi) Commercial B
Sundown is around 9pm but both time slots will provide dynamic lighting.

Saturday 6/6
Shooting around downtown Cincy immediately after Cars & Coffee (you will give up your time at Morlein Lager House).
12pm - Mike (1M Mike) Walk Around

Shooting around Mason/Lebanon area after our cruise and before Saturday dinner.
4pm -
5pm - Daniel (NoVa) Commercial A

Sunday 6/7
Shooting Near maintenance day location in Mason.
8am - Dane (DW) Commercial B
9am - Rob (Newjack) Walk Around (Paid in full)
10am -
11am -

*If you choose the walk around package I would prefer to do that either Saturday or Sunday with more mid day lighting.

I will also be able to accept some last minute shoots but nothing is guaranteed unless you are signed up.

We are going to do 50% deposit via Paypal to reserve your time slot (you are welcome to prepay full amount if you wish). The rest is due in cash at time of shoot unless we make other arrangements. Gratuity isn't needed but then again I'm not going to refuse it if you're inclined to hand it to me :innocent.

As far as washing your car, as long as you don't have large mud/dirt on the car, the small stuff won't likely show up on camera and I have the ability to touch some of it up if needed. Don't be overly concerned if it's dusty or something. Even a quick 5 min wipe down with a microfiber and some detail spray is probably more than enough.

Thanks guys, very excited to get all of your cars on camera!

I've been considering having someone take professional shots since I have negative skills in that area, so this sounds like an offer too good to refuse. I'll sacrifice the brewski's on 6/6 and opt for the 12 PM slot, if still available, please.

Left a few slots open but if we have any last minute requests from anyone I will only be offering Commercial B or Walk Around packages on the spot because of time constraints.


Thanks everyone,very excited!
