Bentley Continental GT
Introducing one of the most decked out cars I have ever shot. A super wicked Bentley Continental GT customized by GMP Performance out of Charlotte, NC. GMP deals primarily with high end European cars, and this Bentley is definitely not an exception. Adding to that exception is a super rare Hamann Imperator body kit, mean ADV.1 05 wheels, and (get this) Lamborghini Reventón paint.
ADV.1 already has a very impressive lineup of outstanding photography, so I had to be on top of my game for this photoshoot. This was my first time trying the technique of light painting. Basically leaving the camera open for 10-30 seconds while I “paint” the car with light. Learned a lot, looking forward to my next car shoot. Feels like the good ‘ol days when I first picked up a camera.

Los Angeles Gets a Bath
Los Angeles gets on average 15 inches of rainfall a year, which is roughly 35 days out of the year. And on those rare 35 days, the rain is comparable to a bird bath at best. Taking full advantage of my new place smack dab in the middle of downtown LA, I grabbed my rain coat, tripod, camera, and headed down to the streets… Because today sir, we have rain!
At first I started on the streets. I figured the sooner the better. Probably not the best idea to stroll around downtown with a nice camera after midnight ya know? Who knows, I’m growing a thicker skin day by day to the “amenities” offered by LA.
After roaming around the streets, I headed up to the rooftop of my building to get some more shots. My camera got very intimate with a Ralph’s plastic grocery bag.
