THANKS PANO!
It’s a sincere honor to be awarded a cover feature in Porsche Club of America’s national magazine, Panorama.
In the December 2020 issue of Panorama Magazine, there’s a 16-page story of mine that goes behind the scenes for a photoshoot of the Emory Motorsport’s AWD “AllRad” 356 Outlaw.
In this article, I explain what goes into all my professional photo sessions. Photo tips are listed, some secrets are revealed, and a lot of fun ensues when Rod Emory coasts down a pre-planned route without a working engine!
Thanks to Rob Sass, Amy Skogstrom, Richard Baron, Vu Nguyen, Allen Lane, Doug Lloyd, and Emma Smith at the PCA!
MORE PORSCHE PUBLICATIONS
The Fall 2020 issue of 000 Magazine tells a story about the original material used on the outside of the Porsche 914 roof. My images illustrate the unique textures used in the early ’70s. Yes, it’s esoteric and a bit complicated. Continue reading “”
IT WAS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME – FLYING CARS
“The 1960s animated cartoon series – The Jetsons – is best remembered for its depiction of a future that just never seemed to get any closer (apart from video phones). And nothing about this future is more lamented than the prolonged absence of George Jetson’s flying electric car. The bad news: There are still no flying electric cars. The good news: Florida is building a place to park them.” Continue reading “”
THANKS FORZA – THE MAGAZINE ABOUT FERRARI
Thanks also… to garage manager Fred Russell, writer Jay Gillotti, and car owner Frank Mandarano (L to R), for making this recent Ferrari Daytona shoot so much fun.
Photographing two Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Spyders together is a dream come true for any car photographer. Only 122+ were made.
Look for this feature in the December 2020 issue of Forza Magazine! Continue reading “”

THE PIONEER – ROTHSPORT RACING & PCA
No one knows for sure when Porsche’s 1995 3.8-liter air cooled motor was first transplanted into a pre-1974 early 911.
What we do know is that in late 1999 Jeff Gamroth of Rothsport Racing in Oregon started thinking about constructing a long hood 911 using the most powerful normally aspirated air-cooled flat six available from Porsche.
SO YOU WANT TO BE A PHOTOGRAPHER?
First you need to establish your goals. Does income from photography matter to you? If not, then join the millions of other people with the same avocation. Continue reading “”
PORSCHE WINS CLASS – JUST MISSES OVERALL VICTORY AT PIKES PEAK
David Donner in his 000 Magazine sponsored Porsche GT2 RS Clubsport took the Time Attack 1 class victory at Pikes Peak this weekend. His overall time of 9:36.559 was just 1.1 seconds away from the overall win. Continue reading “”
SO, WHAT’S A BARE BONES AUTOMOTIVE VIDEO RIG?
A simple car shoot video rig is ideally compact, lightweight, and easy to use. It’s also hopefully not too expensive. After all, it’s your vision and message that will determine the success of any film more than anything else.
Whatever rig you choose, you don’t really want to compromise much on quality – for the camera, the lens, monitor or the audio mic. Continue reading “”
RICHARD BARON
There are very few awards out there for automotive magazine and book designers. If there were more, Richard Baron would have a wall full of trophies and plaques. Continue reading “”
BACK IN THE PALOUSE
If you really want a change of experience, and you live near Seattle, one option is to take a 4-hour trip east to the wheat fields of the Palouse – but don’t delay. This year’s crop will be cut in a couple of weeks. Continue reading “”
KEEP ON KEEPING ON – WITH A FERRARI MODENA 360
Even though it’s been surpassed by more powerful models, I still admire the Ferrari Modena 360 coupe of 1999-2004. What a perfect shape. Continue reading “”
