Default I'm Team Hybrid's Newest Photographer! Maybe *NSFW*

I'm happy to say that after the president of Team Hybrid saw my work, he personally spoke to me and invited me down to Long Beach to meet the team and be their photographer! They wanted me to photograph some of their cars and cover their Thanksgiving party. Even got to meet the Hybrid Hunnies and worked with them for a little bit. I cannot believe the foundation of this crew. They accepted me in with open arms and made me feel like I was family. Amazing. This is an unbelievable opportunity as Team Hybrid have been around for over 10+yrs and have some major connections within the import tuning community. I hope this long distance relationship last and becomes something beautiful. For the first time in a long time I feel that fire burning again!

It's no secret they have nothing but drop dead gorgeous all makes and model cars but I must say....I was a little kid in a candy store last night. It would have been icing on the cake if the $200,000 Lambo came, but it didnt. No worries though, I was lucky enough to see and photograph not your average new bone stock Skyline GTR, but a beautifully modified Skyline GTR. It was an amazing thing.

Onto the pictures.....

very nice photos man... i have a question though. what kind of light set up did you use for inside the club candid shots? direct flash from a hotshue or did you use a diffuser... if you dont mind would post a pic of the flash set up you used? reason im asking is becuase i got a job offering photographing for a new website promoting at clubs and i seen another club photographer using this rouded diffuser on his speedlight. i had two speed lights (both nikon , 1 sb-800 and 1 sb-600)

thanks man

It may look gay to you but after seeing the video and that might be one badass gay wing to you.

Nice pics and congrats.

But your automotive photo's look like any amateur dslrer took them.
Although, your club shots are very well done!

That's cool, I dont consider myself a professional yet. The car shots were not my choice of location so I did what I could with what I had only. If they wanted to know how I really work a car, all they had to do is look at my flicker. My main concern that night was covering the party and forming a new relationship with them. I even chose not to bring my lighting equipment to focus on the models.

But thanks for your comments. You can see more of my automotive work below....

Quite the contrary, Adam is one of the best out there.

Thanks. Some of the closer pics of the models, I did smooth out their skin a little bit but I've always been against going overboard to where they look like porcelain dolls ya know? Unless the "customer" wants it.

You have a great eye for framing your shots and some of your shots are stunning but your BG is very busy on a lot of them. But as you've mentioned, if you knew how to clean up your BG man some of your pictures would really POP. But you're doing fine bro, just keep doing what you're doing. You just gotta keep snapping away.
