Photo Shoot locations?

355dreamer · 10-21-2010, 07:21 AM

SpecerP will be taking some shots of my car this weekend and I was wondering if you guys had any recommendations for scenic locations in or around Montgomery County Maryland.

Any input is appreciated....

ask the guys on f-chat! you know, the guys from pa. i like the mormon temple or the galleries downtown. va side of the potomac with the mouments in the backround. one thing i haven't tried is gravelly point with a plane taking off over ahead. might make sense to wait a little till the leaves are turning and pick a nice leafy shot in front of a mansion or horse farm. On the opposite side of beauty, i liked the shots i got of my diablo around a gritty, graffiti decorated parking lot downtown next to bohemian caverns. on the opposite wall are some really huge murals of jazz greats. Something really colorful would be a good choice for a white car. i could go on but think about how you want the pic to look and make it happen. don't forget to get the kid some savings bonds ya cheap bastid.

How about with Wetpet behind the car?

You need some dynamic shots...Ferrari is about movement. Suspension compressed from the outside of a turn.

of course i do some of my best work in the UPS parking lot. But you better let junior stick with the landscapes.

Did you use the rule of thirds and is that your technique to blur plates?

I like the graffiti idea Ed. Plus, rolling shots in DC might be cool too.
Is that Bohemian place in an OK part of town? If not, can you think of anywhere else?

It depends on the time of day and where you want to drive to.

wetpet · 10-21-2010, 06:01 PM

355dreamer · 10-21-2010, 07:21 PM

Ken, WTF? Those pictures are amazingly good. How come I can't get one of my cars that nice from you?

Dude, you've been holding back on me.

Thanks, that was for a magazine shoot, Performance Auto and Stereo I think. The urban gritty shots were taken 2 blocks from our Discovery headquarters. It was some sort of gang initiation location, right next to the metro tracks and left me looking over my shoulder as we photographed the car.
