Thanks man. I was shooting in AF, Aperture Priority. Some of the photos look overexposed because in order to expose the car properly I had to blow the sky out, unless I was going to use fill flash, but didn't feel like doing that as I had a bunch of cars to shoot in a relatively short amount of time while the light was "decent". Couldn't move the cars around (obviously) so I had to shoot in ways that I normally wouldn't as a photog. I was telling other folks, these shots do not represent how your car would look in a proper shoot. I would never shoot a car with the sun shining directly onto it or shoot directly into the sun if I had a choice. I use Nikon capture NX. The model shots are straight out of the camera.

Yeah, the blonde, Sasha Singleton has been modeling and doing import car stuff forever.... she's Thai/Scottish-Irish mix.

Here she is on Import Tuner almost 10 years ago.



Not bad for being in her 30s.
