CHADBEE PHOTOGRAPHY: NISMO 370Z, Done Right!

[CHADbee]

After taking a four month break from doing anything related to Chadbeephotography.com I started to feel the need to try and capture some photos that would really push myself further as a photographer. This past weekend I gave into the craving and grabbed the key to the Forged Performance 370Z NISMO and headed out to scout for a location. By 7pm I made my way up interstate 575 and out of the Atlanta suburbs, after a 30 minute drive I picked a totally random exit and started my search for a spot. Within a few minutes I drove past this closed down factory that was very rustic and industrial. It was the perfect backdrop to accent this clean modern Z equipped with Hyper Bronze Volk RE30’s, StopTech big brake kits and JRZ Coilover System. I carefully maneuvered the car into position and went to work, this is the result:

Please see the CHADBEE PHOTOGRAPHY BLOG for desktop wallpapers and a pretty cool original photo vs edited photo to show how in-depth the post processing techniques I use.

Enjoy and please let me know what you think!

Want to know a secret? My vegabond power pack was dead, I forgot to charge it....so this entire shoot was done using multiple exposures and a single Nikon SB800 Speedlight

...no strobes used.

Not "fast" yet still faster than atleast 90% of the cars on this board aswell as more comfortable. It is a slick ride and not common. I'm sure I see more R35s around here than Nismo 370s.

Very true! 340HP factory and with bolt-ons they make around 320whp Not too shabby!

Grab one off craigslist for cheap.

Thanks Kevin, I like it too, a lot. It isn't fast by any means but it is so much fun to drive.

Couldn't have picked a more spot-on location to shoot this vehicle. The environment and style of the photos flow very nicely with this car. Good work Chad

Thank you! I thought it worked very well...the nice, clean, new NISMO 370Z contrasted so much against the dark, old, grungy factory. It stunk there, really bad. I almost puked a few times lol but it was worth it.

Still think the stock body looks better, but if i had to get a nismo, it would look like this. Great photos, i really like the last one

[Sammich]

I still can't get over the "fangs" int he normal 370Z front bumper.

Me too! I would have never thought bronze would have worked on silver...but it does.

No, I won't accept a hand job from you for a shoot.

Sick Chad. Pics are sick.

Thanks!

Yeah, a lot of people feel like that, but the fangs are what i really like about the normal bumper. It looks so much more aggressive

No, I won't accept a hand job from you for a shoot.
