This project was a photographic slam dance, the days warning, one day to scout and shoot with no power at any one of our locations. Look for final images coming soon at James Pickett Photography.

In the case of Jared’s shoot it was a 50/50 split. The sunset location was planned and researched for weeks, the 442 was a last minute decision that worked out amazingly.

Vehicle number one was an Audi R8 built by Performance Outfitters Group to win the Bull Run, as of this writing the Bull Run is under way and results are not out. Vehicle number two was a Porsche 930 slant nose with a 911T conversion built by Fabspeed Motorsports. The following video features images taken by the staff of Fabspeed Motorsports, and myself photographing the 930/911T from the back of a heavily modified Porsche Cayenne Turbo… I live for this. Stay tuned for the R8 video and stills as shot for the magazine.
