J.dot Photography

So instead of having a bunch of threads I’m just going to post my work in one spot.

I just took these over the weekend of my 2 friends cars.

If you ever need a shoot and are in the Orlando area hit me up or if I’m ever up in pittsburgh we can meet up for a shoot.

Thanks for looking and spread the word about my company. Willing to fly to do shoots.

numbers 2 and 4 are tits man! I love the sky that you had to work with. captured well!

very nice as usual :bigthumb:

One good thing about florida weather is the sky is cloudy but not all grey like pittsburgh. I made the clouds grey for a more dramatic look. Blue skies and white clouds aren’t very meanicing.

Damn, great stuff.

dang dude I couldn’t tell at all! It looks like all hell is going to break out from the sky!

Nope. Lots of Pshop, but honestly not something super hard.

#2 is amazing! great work!

That Q looks fierce.

Its been forever since I posted up some new work, let alone on the board from the “hey post on the board” on the top.

But here is a work in progress. I’m thinking I’m pretty much done with it though. Just thought I’d share. Get some comments on what to change.

As far as the car goes … or the photography goes?

I can’t really edit what the car looks like, but I was more concerned about how the cloning of the big silver truck went behind the bushes right over the headlight or the left.

that part looks good but the cloning out the telephone pole didn’t seem to go so well IMO.

edit: yeah, the truck part looks awesome, but there is a definite line where it looks like you might have hit the edge of what you were cloning. It starts right above the roof, on the same axis as the center of the front wheel.

Yeah I see it now. Gonna go back in a rework it. I’m not that great at cloning objects out. I typically just do small blemishes.

cool man! glad I could help. I’ve never done any tree cloning, which would suck. mostly sky and like dirt, lol, stuff that’s hard to screw up.

Typically I see that kinda stuff before I take the shot. It was hot, like blazing hot so I was kinda distracted.

I can’t wait till summer is over and winter comes. Florida doesn’t have fall just summer/winter.

Did a shoot for a friends clothing company. Here is one that I did for a project that I’m doing that explains what I did over the weekend.

I like what your trying todo with the top two… But how bout having a still of the breaking dancing guy with no transparency, then have the actions around him transparent? (I dunno what your working with, but just a thought :bigthumb:)

nice shots btw, good lighting.

The top one I did do a regular shot of him doing a flair with the shirt showing. I wanted to do something different for those.

I’m still learning off camera ligthing. I was really mad for the picture of the chick in the car. I only had one light. I’ll post up some more with 2 light setup that looks alot better.
