This was my first feature with Performance VW Magazine in the UK - a 7-page feature on Cameron's wild Mk6 Golf R.
Running a GTX3071 turbo on the 2.0L engine it pumps out around 400hp atw.
Grab the August 2016 issue to read all about it.
I photographed this tough supercharged BMW E90 M3 recently for Performance BMW Magazine in the UK.
The built S65 4.0L V8 runs the worlds first positive displacement supercharger (R1740) kit from Harrop and is putting out about 500hp at the wheels. On the outside it features a set of 19" Varrstoen ES6 wheels.
Be sure to grab the April 2016 issue to read about all the other work that Thomas has had done on this unique M3.
Back in March this year I flew to Sydney to spend two days with the new "entry level" supercar from Lamborghini - the 610hp Huracan. Peter Anderson (journalist for Box Magazine) and I explored the Royal National Park and the area around the stunning Sea Cliff Bridge - great areas for both testing the cars capabilities and scenic photography locations.
Since it was a short trip I was travelling light and only had my Sony A7R, a tripod and a single Profoto B1. The weather and the matte paint finish on the Huracan were both very favourable.

The July issue of CEO Magazine has hit the shelves, and inside is Karl Pesketts review and my photos of the 2015 Lexus RC F.
The editor requested "simple and natural" looking photos for the article, so that meant leaving the Profoto B1 at home. Just me, my Sony A7R and Zeiss 55mm. As it turned out it was an overcast day which is always handy with black cars!
I had this car for 36hrs and really enjoyed it, big step up from the ISF. Check out the current issue of CEO Magazine for Karls more detailed thoughts.
Not one, not two, but three Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Edition 507's together in the same place on a recent Sunday in front of my Sony A7R. I originally had a private shoot booked with the white coupe but after talking to a friend about it he soon organised for two more to join us for a couple of group shots. The sight and sound definitely made getting up early worth it
It has long been a goal of mine to get my car photos published in an international magazine that is read and seen by a much larger audience. I am happy to reveal that the UK Magazine "BMW Car" has picked up my photos from a recent E92 M3 shoot and written a feature article to accompany them. There is a photo on the front page and then a 5 page spread in the May edition of the magazine. You can download a copy on iPad or get it in stores from April 17th.
The newest Ferrari 458 Italia to make it to Perth is this 2011 model which was purchased in Sydney and then trucked over to WA. It looks superb in the optional Giallo Triplo Strato (triple layer pearl yellow) - especially in the sun!
Keep an eye out (and ears open) for this car as not long after the shoot it was fitted with an Armytrix Australia titanium exhaust. More mods in the pipeline also!
I recently shot the famous ex-KSR Nissan R34 GT-R for its new Perth-based owner. What a machine - my first ride in a highly modified GT-R and it won't be something I forget soon.
You can see more about this car and my photos on The-Lowdown.Com - great article by Ryan Lewis.

Jaguar recently hosted members of the Australian media for the launch of their first 2-seater in 40 years - the F-Type.
The event started at the magnificent Shangri-La luxury hotel in Sydney and headed North to the Central Coast to explore the cars dynamics on some brilliant roads.
To fully test the cars Jaguar had arranged a few hours at a "private closed road" which is a 5.2km loop set in a picturesque location.
You can read Karl Pesketts thoughts on the car in his review.
