As a part of my ongoing blog series with Profoto lighting I decided what its like on set – creating good lighting in a short amount of time. The reality of a photographer is that even thought we have a dedicated time slot, it never fails that our time gets cut short. These two blog post show how I used Profoto gear to get the best photos I could in a short time. The first shoot is with the Team Need for Speed Scion tc that is driven by Fredric Aasbo. The second shoot was with the Rockstar / Etnies Ford Fiesta Rallycross car driven by Tanner Foust. More to come…

This is a video I put together for Memphis Car Audio for their trade show booth at CES.  It features the Papadakis Racing Drift Team- Stephan Papadakis and Tanner Foust.  The video is designed to show the relationship MCA has had with Papadakis Racing over the years.  I had to dust off the old videos I shot from 2004-2007 to incorporate into the action sequence.

I am starting to get a lot more requests for video now that I have all the HD video gear!  :)  Lets keep it coming…
