I had a chance to head up to San Francisco and shoot these amazing cars for Petrolicious.com. It was a bit of a challenge with the rain but I feel it worked well for the overall mood.

New Depth of Speed episodes are coming. I have been working on the MR2 video which will be out this month!
Sorry for the lack of posts on the site. I have been staying busy in working with Petrolicious.com. If you haven’t checked it out you should head over to the site which has new content daily. Here are a few videos that I have done recently.

Riding in one of these is an experience I will never forgot. I need to see if I still have that old poster from my childhood…
You may have noticed that it has been a little quiet around here the past few weeks. It isn’t for lack of working as I have been helping out with a new project that has gone live today. I have been helping out with the site Petrolicious.com that focuses on high quality content for vintage cars. It has been amazing and there is some great stuff coming down the line. There will be a new video airing once a week.
Don’t fear as Depth of Speed will continue on and I have new episodes waiting in the wings!
For now here are some screenshots of some of the videos I have been working on in conjunction with Petrolicious. Check out their sites as it is updated daily and you can see what I have been up to.
When Joel reached out to me a few months ago with photos of his 1982 Volkswagen Rabbit, I became even more excited to visit the Twin Cities than I already was. The Rabbit was unique with an interesting theme and details, like the leather hood straps made from belts, the leather-wrapped steering wheel, the hand-painted emblems, and the fact that Joel upholstered the seats himself from some old leather jackets. It was impressive for being the first car Joel had ever built, and it was something I’d never shot before.
My favorite part of the shoot, was when we found a closed-off road and started shooting underneath and around an old bridge. What made that location even better was when a train began clanging past on the bridge overhead.

I had the opportunity to swing by TBC Hot Rods and Bikes in Fayetteville, NC and check out the shop. Every month the guys at the shop pool their funds together to bring in a band, food, and drinks for “Garage Night”. It is something that really gives back to the automotive community in Fayetteville which is what it is all about. Tim Bradham is one of the nicest people you will meet and is a master fabricator. He creates a lot of things out of raw materials and it is amazing to see something start from nothing.

The one that started it all…
Here is an actual still from this week’s photoshoot. This was a blast to shoot and I fell in love with St. Paul.
Today I met a Zombie. It resides in St. Paul, MN. If this is what the upcoming Zombie Apocalypse is like then sign me up.
Here are some more shots from the collection. Next time I am there I need to check off the list of filming and racing on the track.
