What would it cost and how could I go about having a professional portfolio done of my jeep? I see tons of great pictures and very professional photo shoots of all types of automobiles and it got me thinking. I'd love to have a high quality, professional, automotive magazine type spread of my jeep for posterity's sake.

I have a friend if mine who does car spreads. He's in Roswell. Let me know if you want his info.

Yup Guy has some great photog skills. I have a few other buddies that do auto photography that I have met through the muscle car scene. I will see if any of them want to hangout for a weekend of wheeling

We hired a great photographer for our 2010 show, if we host the car show this year you can join the shoot. It isn't on the trails or anything, but it's a cool thing to do. {cheers2}
Scroll down to the shoot:

Send me a PM. I've done many articles in CRAWL and just submitted one to off road adventures. I'm based in ATL and have had numerous articles and spreads over the years. Typical shoot would take ~4 hours assuming we are in one spot and good weather. Vehicle prepared by customer.
We can discuss what you want, how you want it, when, etc.
Examples of photos below. I can dig up some PDFs once emails are exchanged.

Get our April ride in some Mags </ROCKIN/>

Hey LR, those are some very nice shots!

Also I HIGHLY recommend that you interview your photographers beforehand. Face to face, preferred. You get a feel for their style, what they can offer, and other factors that are best "felt out" beforehand. Professionalism is key as you want someone who is working this, not out there to have fun (it kinda sucks but this is the truth, it is work).
The photographer that shows up with their relevant-topic portfolio on their tablet for you to view, as well as a pricing schedule, and locations already scouted/known can make a customer feel a lot better than the guy who shows up in his PJs and says, "I've never done it but I'm sure I can do it!"
Kinda like interviewing realtors or wedding photographers. Need to talk to about 10 before you find a decent one. I would be more than happy to setup a time for a coffee or brew to come discuss what you are looking for. Make sure it is doable (most likely is) and that the end product will be what you want it to be. I can provide examples of entire shoots (already printed) to find out what suits you the best as I have many styles of shoots to choose from. On the flipside if you would like something different, this can be discussed. Long story short, having a plan BEFORE shoot day is preferred as "winging it" has a huge impact on the quality of photos produced.

Good stuff right there. Thanks LR

I am going to try and get my photographer to come out for Gulches. He has expressed interest in doing a shoot for us.
