Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 SV - studio photoshoot

This is the next car from my day in Melbourne at the Eleven40 studio in Malvern, to shoot 3 cars for private clients.

A stunning 2010 Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 SV. The Arancio Atlas paintwork just looked amazing under studio lights!

This example has a few unique features such as the custom designed logo on the side (in the same font as the original SV), a 1 of 1 Innotech Performance exhaust and it has been signed by Valentino Balboni.

All photos were taken on my Sony A7R.

Rolls-Royce Dawn arrives in Perth

I was recently contacted by Rolls-Royce Asia Pacific (Singapore) to photograph their new Perth Rolls-Royce dealership and stunning new model, the Dawn.

The shoot was done over a number of early mornings and evenings with countless more hours spent on post production. All images were taken on my Sony A7R (with either Zeiss 55mm or Zeiss 16-35mm) and used a combination of natural light, light painting and strobe (Profoto B1).

Some of the finished images that Rolls-Royce have used on their social media platforms can be seen below - along with a couple of behind the scenes shots.

Supercharged E90 M3 in Performance BMW magazine

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.

Lamborghini Huracan for Box Magazine

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.

Grab the current issue of Box Magazine to read all about it.

Aprilia RSV4 Photoshoot

It seems I attract (or chase?) customers that own red Italian bikes, not that I'm complaining.

Here is another I shot recently, a beautiful example of the Aprilia RSV4 with an amazing sounding Arrow exhaust.

These photos were taken with my Sony A7R and Zeiss 55mm F1.8 lense. Lighting was a mixture of natural, strobe (Profoto B1) and LED panel.

Lexus RC F review and photoshoot

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.

Ducati 1199 Superleggera Photoshoot

This is the first of very few Ducati 1199 Superleggeras to hit Perth streets. Only 500 of these amazing machines were produced worldwide with only a handful making it to Western Australia.

They are the pinnacle of Ducati engineering, producing 200hp to propel a 155kg motorbike. You can read more about the details and specs here.

The owner of this example loves his so much that he is planning to sell his Desmosedici!

Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Edition 507 Trio

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

Aprilia RSV4 Factory Photoshoot

It had been a while since I photographed a motorbike, so I approached my shoot with this stunning 2013 Aprilia RSV4 Factory with great excitement. It was also my first proper chance to test out the new Sony A7R. As expected the AF was an issue in low light but I was pleased with the results overall! The owner requested that we do the shoot down by the water in East Perth, a popular spot among the local motorcycle community for photos.

Ferrari 458 Italia

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!
