When I started photography I started doing a lot of automotive photography until I basically got tired of shooting cars and then moved to what I do now. Weddings, Portraits, etc. Being able to interact with people motivates me but this assignment was one of a kind. I had the opportunity to shoot 36 Plymouth Prowlers @ The Virginia Beach Boardwalk and I had a blast. These guys traveled from all over the country (even Canada) to meet here in Virginia Beach, talk about cars and have a good time.
They told me they wanted a panorama with all the Prowlers in it and of course, they wanted to be able to see the beach. Well that almost ended up being rocket science!
I took individual shots of the cars and when it was time for the big shot I had to go inside someones hotel room and use their balcony for the shot. (no, I didn't steal anything) I was using a 12-24mm wide angle lens and guess what? It wasn't wide enough so I had to improvise. I took 12 hand held shots and decided I was going to stitch 'em up later in post. I pulled this one off and everybody was amazed with the results giving the situation we ended up dealing with. (not a lot of room for the shot they were looking for). Saved the day!
