Final Photoshoot - The Ultimate 997TT

This car is so much fun, so sick to look at, that sometimes being in this business drives me nuts. We/I have to build an awesome car, barely drive it, then sell it to build the next cool thing. Not sure about this one as I am on the fence of will it stay or go I get to attached!

As an amateur photographer, I sometimes get to do the pics for the magazine photoshoots we are featured in. I am in no way shape or form as good as what some of these guys do for a living. However I do enjoy the final product on "film". So with nothing left to do to the car, it was photoshoot time.

The weapon of choice was a Canon 5D with a Canon 17-40mm lens and a 70-110mm lens. I usually shoot on Program mode and use natural light. ISO was around 800-1000 each time. I decided to shoot around Arizona State University and Tempe Town Lake. For those that are from here or went to school here, you will recognize some of the locations: Old Row, Lot 59, Lake View Road, and the crazy building wall is of the old AAW building.

Hope you like the pics. Make sure to check back here on the Project 997TT section as I will update the interior shots, engine shots, and detailed pics I will be doing soon too. We are still planning on testing our new 997.1TT valvetronic exhaust, so will have an update on that as well. Enjoy!

Nice!

The 5D is a beast, I just picked up a 30D and a USM lens, still learning many things everyday!

I love the backdrops, looks great!

Did you do any PP or are these right out of the cam?

Yeah I did Photoshop. Mainly sharpen, contrast, and saturaton. My dad is actually a photographer so I get his hammy downs. Maybe I can grab one of his beasts of a camera and do another shot in the same location this weekend to show the difference
