Good idea. Don't be ghey everyone... we want 1024s :D So don't rip off other peoples stuff... just ask first. You would be suprised at what you get sometimes...

Here's a quickie I just put together.

Great Shots man. Do you do this as a profession? Have a website? We don't use freelancers that often at my work (since 90% of our work is interactive marketing) but next time something comes up I'm going to keep you in mind.

No, it's not my profession...yet. Maybe in 2-3 years. Right now, I'm researching, learning, getting experience, etc. Not just photography, but the business side of it as well. I was planning a 2005 release of my website, but with a different day job now, it will probably be delayed.

He's not a bad guy. He posts here often and I can't ever recall him doing anything nasty. How about this, unless he's seen this post he might just think it's no big deal so I'll pm him and see what he says.

Whether it's chico or yourself, it doesn't really matter. Sooner or later, someone's bound to do it. I wouldn't mind so much if I got paid by a magazine or Mazda USA to do these, because they would compensate me very well for it. However, this entire shoot (and any previous shoots so far) came out of my own pocket. Time spent scouting, gas, the photography, post-process work, etc. that all adds up (both in time and money). And the only thing I ask for is to keep my name on the picture.
 
werd Ozzy, at least they can do is keep ur name on it

awesome shoot man ;) looking forward to more

Don't worry man - it will all be worth it in the long run. Just think of the portfolio you are building. Tthe quality of shots you are able to produce with noone giving you art direction is quite impressive. You will have no trouble getting freelance work or picked up by an organization.

If you want help designing your website just shoot me a PM or email when you are ready. I've been doing design professionally for several years and would gladly help out another forum member.

Again, great work and I can't wait till your famous so i can say i knew you before you blew up! :)

I love that sunset but I also love that one with the building or wall with holes as the backdrop. Very cool. I want someone to make my silver P5 that pretty. You do awesome work.

I never did anything with your pics. I'm not a fan of orange lol. However I felt bad for your hardwork being misused after you voiced it. I pmed him like I said I would. He said he would take them down, and he felt bad about it. It was just a matter of him thinking nothing of it.
 
Ya dude you should have no trouble going freelance. I know personally I was dissapointed to see you're in canada. If you were in florida, not only would I come to you on your schedual, but I wouldn't mind paying 500 bux for pics like that of my car. Those things are priceless really....
 
Thanks, but I'm taking my time to build that website. I'm just hesitant, I guess. Also, now that I've had a good look at these MSP pictures, I might not even add it on my portfolio. Which means, I'll have to do it over...hehehehe. BTW, I won't get famous. There's too many good car photographers out there. You guys just haven't been exposed to their work, that's all.

I never said you did. I said, even IF you did it yourself.
