It was really dope how you used the graduated filter to accentuate the light coming into the warehouse man! Good job! Btw, you're really good at doing these kinda tutorials. I've done my 3d and still trying to figure out how I can do this the best way possible, it really isn't easy.. haha
I really enjoy the way you explain how to edit photos. Despite being pretty garbage at editting and having medioce photography skills, a lot of what you share on your channel helped me understand where I could and want to improve on when it comes to composition and editting. Thank you keep it up dude!!
I stumbled across your channel recently and the value you pack into your videos is so beneficial for creatives looking to get into this niche! Really enjoy your videos! keep it up man.
I find a lot of them through instagram and then reach out on there to see if they want to shoot. Having a really great portfolio will help a lot with them saying yes.
Hey, Im from the UK, love your content. Learnt so much from you. Question: What would be your dream car to shoot and where (country/city/landscape/whatever)?
Another top video Alex, nice work man! My question would be, can you trace your passion for car photography back to a particular photo, that when you took it you thought, "yes, THIS is what I want to be doing."
YOU ARE GOALS BRO! I just started messing with lightroom something I have wanted to do...have to figure out how to export so I can post and my goals is to do screen posters for phones...I enjoyed this a lot, I will work on this
That's awesome man! That's a really fun goal to have also! Make sure to tag me in some of your photos too, would love to see how your photos develop :) Cheers!
Hey! I think a really cool video idea would be to take a look at your followers' Instagrams and choose some favorite shots. it would be fun to take a look at how other people shoot while also helping out your followers a little by providing some exposure. That would be a lot of fun to watch... plus if you were to do this... I am a 17-year-old FL car photog @Radiant_Studios and you are my #1 inspiration in this hobby!
@@TheCarCreative That would be such a fun video. Thanks for replying, I smiled pretty hard when I saw your reply notification pop up on email lol my cheeks hurt bro
holy sh!t you make it look so fricking easy ! you are an amazing photographer and I think , that I can learn very much from your editing tips ! Great Video and keep up the amazing work ! greetings from germany :)
Great job man making YYC proud for sure! Question: what are your thoughts on composite photography and is that something you'd look to do in the future?
Hey man! Looove your videos. You have easily become my go-to favourite car photography guru on youtube😂❤️ The production quality and value is through the roof. I'm convince your channel will blow up in no time! I'm learning more than ever. Currently just a few months into this hopefully prosperous and long car photography / videography journey myself. As for my question; This might be a bit personal (?), but do you do this full time, and what did you do before this. Are you self-taught or did/do you work with something related? Much love man❤️
Great question man! I’ll add it for sure! And thank you so much for the kind words! So stoked that you’re enjoying the videos =) your support means heaps bro!
Awesome tutorial! I've been practicing editing my photos in this same manner so this video really helps! Question: Have you ever attempted shooting a car with a smoke grenade/shutterbomb?
@@TheCarCreative Like all your amazing content of car photography/edition but in bikes hehehe, like angles, wheel position, and all those things that makes the bike look better in the photo
Always enjoy your content dude. I got some suggestion,try shooting more nissan GTR & Toyota Supra mk4. put it in the thumbnail & title(important).booth car has high success rate in my experience. At least in my country. It will boost your sub & view. I have done it with client before multiple times. so far, old legendary car gain more views than newer supercar because the old car already has loyal fan boys. loyal fan boys usually share it on group & more popular in any search engine. It will spread faster than the car. keep the awesome content dude !
I did a shoot with a huracan a few weeks ago aswell, I’d be interested to see what your edit comes out like. One of the shots is my profile pic 👌 Great content btw, this video helped me to focus on my lighting. 👍
Sweet video! My question is, how do you market yourself to get paid shoots? I invest a lot of time and money in my gear, social media presence, and obviously my car photography to a professional extent, and people enjoy my work. However they get turned off when I offer them a rate. How can I go about expecting a paid shoot? Thanks!
Hi ! Your videos are superb and we learn a lot of things 😁 if I want to buy your moody preset today is it still possible or not? Because I love this style of photo
Question: i really like night photography but my camera isn't helping me, so what camera do you recommend for under 1000$ ? Keep up the great content and thank you for all your tips!!
Your vids are awesome. Maybe TOO awesome! I’m noticing more and more people taking their own pics because of channels like this. It’s further saturating an already saturated scene of car photographers especially if you’re in a place like Los Angeles. So I’m noticing a lot of people who are just starting undercutting prices shooting for cheap or even for free! I’ve been shooting cars privately for owners for about 2 1/2 years but have been feeling super burned out because everyone can just take their own pics or get them for cheap. I feel like I’m not good enough to keep up sometimes. So my question is...How do you stay motivated and keep pushing yourself to the next level in such a competitive environment?
Hey brother! I kind of answer this question in my latest video with the Q&A - it’s a good one to ask and you can see my personal perspective on the saturated car photographer scene. Thanks for watching and commenting man!
I'm a big fan of your work!❤️ I have a small question: does the sharpness of the outlines of the car (as you showed with the green Lamborghini at the start) depend upon a full-frame or crop-sensor camera or is it related to the lenses that one uses or just the camera settings can work the magic?
1) How to reduce glare other than a CPL Filter? I see people take the cleanest pics but theyre in a parking garage or somewhere with a lot of lights. Is it photoshop? 2) How do you take a clean night photo of a car? 3) How big is the difference you saw when upgrading to the A7 from the A6500? 4) If you could go back in time, what would you tell yourself when you were just starting out doing automotive photography? 5) How to get clients starting out, how to get Instagram engagement ? 6) I see dealerships with not the best photos, a lot of light glare on their cars, not detailed pictures...How should I approach them to do work for them? 7)Sometimes my edits look "fake." Do you have any tips to make the photos look realistic, buy stylish at the same time?
Question: I just stared car photography as a hobby, i got a Canon EOS 90D because i heard it was good for everything i may want to do, like video. Do you think this is a good camera for cars given that it has a cropped sensor, or should i trade it for the Canon EOS R? Thanks, your videos have helped me alot.
The way I build my presets, I select very specific parts of the edit that I add to the tone, or the curve, and also adding filters separate from the tone and colour. Makes it more stackable, and more fun!
Thanks so much for watching! Ask me a question here in the comments and I'll add it to the list for the 10K Q&A!
Nice to see editing from someone elses perspective, great for learning more!
Never stop learning! ✌🏼
Amazing video as always sir.
Thanks my friend! Hopefully we can setup a shoot before the end of the summer!
You are the most underrated youtuber and photographer. You deserve more recognition. Yours tutorials are the best thank you
Brother you deserve a million subscribers this is the best car photography channel
Thanks so much for watching! That means a lot man!!
Hey man love the content! y question is: How do you market yourself to dealerships or other clients? Keep up the awesome videos!
Thanks so much for watching man! I’ll add the question to the list!! 🤙🏼
I would tag onto this question while adding, what is a reasonable package for a dealership? One car or multiple packets.
That Porsche looked so cool after that edited. All of them did but i just love Porsche. Always thanks for the great ideals and video tutorials.
Thanks man! Crazy how it was just two clicks to get the porsche looking good hey? That’s a well done photo in my opinion which made the edit easier :)
You should make a vid on how you have your camera setup in the settings
It was really dope how you used the graduated filter to accentuate the light coming into the warehouse man! Good job! Btw, you're really good at doing these kinda tutorials. I've done my 3d and still trying to figure out how I can do this the best way possible, it really isn't easy.. haha

Question: Have you ever attempted shooting a car with a smoke grenade/shutterbomb?
Hey! Thanks so much for watching! Thanks for the question. Sadly the quick answer is no haha but I would love to!
If possible, i want u to make more bike photography and edition :)
What you wanna know?? I’ll add it to the list.
@@TheCarCreative Like all your amazing content of car photography/edition but in bikes hehehe, like angles, wheel position, and all those things that makes the bike look better in the photo
Thanks for the editing insights. Nice video. Could you share the settings of how the second lambo was shot? Looks so dope
Thanks man! I know I was shooting on the 24-105 f4 so I likely shot at f4 and used low iso and then adjusted with shutter speed. 👍🏼
Dope Lr tutorial! Thanks bro
Always enjoy your content dude. I got some suggestion,try shooting more nissan GTR & Toyota Supra mk4. put it in the thumbnail & title(important).booth car has high success rate in my experience. At least in my country. It will boost your sub & view. I have done it with client before multiple times. so far, old legendary car gain more views than newer supercar because the old car already has loyal fan boys. loyal fan boys usually share it on group & more popular in any search engine.

Great suggestions! I’ll definitely look into this and see if I can get some access to these cars 😁🙏🏼

One of the shots is my profile pic 👌
Great content btw, this video helped me to focus on my lighting. 👍

However they get turned off when I offer them a rate. How can I go about expecting a paid shoot? Thanks!
Awesome editing video! How long have you been doing car photography and videography?
Thanks man! I will add that question to the list for the q&a! Cheers bro!
@@TheCarCreative follow up question would be how did you get started in this?
hey, thank you so much for taking this video! Is that possible to share your presets again because link is broken. THANKS!
Please send me an email with your order number to alex@thecarcreative.ca

Hi ! Your videos are superb and we learn a lot of things 😁 if I want to buy your moody preset today is it still possible or not? Because I love this style of photo
can you do a tutorial on how Alen Palander does his black tones, without presets
his are so calming to look at
I could try and sort it out! He does have an awesome style that’s for sure!
love it😍
Thanks man!!
Dope content
Thanks heaps brother!

Question: any tips on tags or ways to gain popularity/notoriety/legitimacy to gain clients?
Great work. Thank you for taking the time to explain your work. we at Porsche club Oman follow you and are influenced by you
Great to hear!! Thanks for watching and if there’s ever a Porsche collab to be had do let me know!
I'm a big fan of your work!❤️

Hey, another awesome video, congrats, question: What was your old job? do you keep it? how did you transition from one profession to another? cheers!
Great video as always! I’m question is, I’m using a Nikon D7100 can you recommend a decent affordable prime lens Manley for shooting cars. Thank you!
Hey man, question: how do you make a boring location look epiv
Question: I just stared car photography as a hobby, i got a Canon EOS 90D because i heard it was good for everything i may want to do, like video. Do you think this is a good camera for cars given that it has a cropped sensor, or should i trade it for the Canon EOS R? Thanks, your videos have helped me alot.
Hey man! Great video :) My question is, how do you get so many nice cars to photograph, also do you charge to do car shoots?
Thanks so much for watching! I will definitely add that question to the list! Cheers mate!
Very useful info!
Question, what are ways we can improve our photography to land the attention/business of say car companies? If that makes sense lol
Thanks for the question I will add this to the list for sure!! Thanks for watching!
Great
what's the shortcut for 'option' key for us who use windows?
Which part of the workflow do you/did you least enjoy? What do you do to make it more bearable if anything
Great question bro! I'll add this to the list for the Q&A!
Hey man can we get a link for the raw files for practicing?
Can these edits be done in PS or should I upgrade to LR? Great tutorial, always learning new things from your channel :)
Ya man most of this stuff can be done in photoshop! Camera Raw I think is the plug in you use.
What brightness level do you set on your monitor for edits? (full, half, low etc)
In 8;21 I cannot find that option key, what key is that?
I have a grey car can i still make it moody like this? I feel like everything is too grey
i want those presets, i think i have to upgrade to the newest LR?
You should get .XMP, and DNG files so you can create the presets on any platform.
Starts at 1:34
i use Aurora HDR, do you think its possible to do the same effects? ifs from Luminar
Unfortunately I’m not really familiar with that program! Sorry mate!
How are you adding more than one filter ?
The way I build my presets, I select very specific parts of the edit that I add to the tone, or the curve, and also adding filters separate from the tone and colour. Makes it more stackable, and more fun!
Question: when did you start car photography?
Thanks for the question. I will definitely add it to the list!
Good video, how can I get started in photography (like a job, to get some money€€€)
Great question! I'll add this to the list for the Q&A!
How can I get your moody edit
