Pesonally I think you'd be better off taking shots of your own car, think the pic's will be more memorable...don't get a studio session with your own car that often and nice to have on the wall in 30x20...

Just IMO of course, I'll shoot whatevers there

Aaahhhh, I got the impression it was gonna be just 2 hours in the studio.

Where is it? I only ask as we should, obviously, get there early but what if the cars get dirty on the way? we need to factor in some time for frayz to clean them while we are there

Have we all got Canon's I've only got an 18-55, 70-200 & a mahoosive 135-400 that I doubt I'll use

No I have a proper camera (2 actually) Nikon D200 and D70 with 18-70, 70-200 F2.8 VR and a 10-20 which may come in quite handy.

Good point on the cleaning.

spoke to studio and they normally only do 2 cars per day. 4 hours per car, that's a long time on each. guess that is for commercial stuff though.

I don't know about you but 2 hours per car seems generous.

I guess that manouvering the cars and adjusting lighting etc will take time though.

Yeah i think 2 hours will be plenty. even if you said it'll take an hour to get the angles and lighting right. Still leaves and hour to take the pictures.

Shall i find out about mid week availability?

sorry it's taken so long guys. just heard that the guy who runs the studio is folding the company as a customer is having trouble paying him and it's lead to the company going bust. The studio hire is just a small sideline.

on the upside, the weather is looking like it's going to get a bit better so perhaps an outdoor shoot in a few weeks time?
