Simply Clean Nine

It’s been a quite year on the photography side of my life. I’ve had lots of personal events happen to me throughout the year, not to go too much into detail but I almost died do to some issues with my liver. But here I am, alive, strong, and ready to get back to what I love doing. For this year’s Simply Clean it would be 11 months since I’ve done anything with my camera. Had to break in the new year with a good piece of glass to rent. I’ve always wanted to try out Sigma’s Art Series Lenses, so I picked up their 35mm Art Lens and wow it is amazing! I wish I had the USB lens dock to further calibrate the lens to my 1Dmark3 but it worked really well out side of the box. Sadly the weather didn’t play 100% so it kept wanting to focus on the clouds on the paint of the vehicles. Plus being almost a year out of practice it took a few dozen shots to get back into groove of things.

The event itself though was amazing, I think this year I saw more friends than ever. I can’t thank Nickoli enough for creating this event and making it better and better every year. Since the first event I always felt I was home surrounded by friends with one passion. Enough of me blabbing, expect one more coverage next month for Wekfest. Again, enjoy the snaps!

2016 Titan Motorsports Open House

This past week Titan Motorsports open their doors for their annual open house. Every year, Titan Motorsports holds a dyno show, car show, and bikini girl show…what better way to spend a gorgeous florida Saturday? Lots of nice car’s this year inside the Titan compound, especially my boy’s S2000. Good thing I didn’t take Summer, she would have been jealous and looking at me mad that she isn’t looking that good. It was a bit weird driving my newly bagged Audi Avant for the first time to a car show and leaving my S2000 in the garage. Enjoy the pictures everyone.

Titan Motorsports VI Annual Open House

It’s been 3 years since I’ve been to my first Titan Motorsports open house and its crazy how much has changed, especially with the scene. It’s nice to see a power house like Titan Motorsports bring in a good mixture of cars. But the real reason wasn’t just for a meet, it was to raise money for their favorite charity, The Just in Queso foundation founded by Tijuana Flats. They help the near by community with food straight from Tijuana Flats. Last year they raised over $14k, which is amazing! But this year they want to beat it! Hopefully we’ll get word soon that they did. But I’ll let the pictures do the rest of the talking, enjoy everyone!

The last biggest car show was here and now its gone. It was a great way to end a freaking crazy year. Like last year I helped out my good buddy Nickoli from Simply Clean to cover the event. Hopefully I did a decent job, I’ve been up since 5am so I was starting to crash hard towards the early afternoon. Anyways, I’ll post more pictures here as soon as he posts up the article on his site. I added some teasers for now but hopefully I’ll have the full set late this week or early next. Till next time!

**UPDATE**

Article is out! Short but sweet over at Simply Clean.

Titan Motorsports Meet

This past Saturday Titan Motorsports opened their doors once again for their annual open house car meet. I haven’t been to their new location  and just by driving up to their building you can smell the high octane in the air. It’s just insane all of the car’s they own and tune under one house. Add up all of the horsepower you and your family have under on roof and you still won’t come up with half of what their cars put out. It was great for them to open the doors to the stance out scene out there, its nice to bring all vehicles under one roof for a day.
