AMG C63 Affalterbach Edition
Pro photoshoot with George Bucur

Crazy story...as a joke to make fun of two girls at work, i sent both of them an email saying "too bad you are not on my facebook page...yesterday i posted this: I am feeling generous today so i will buy a pair of Christian Louboutin shoes to the first girl who likes this post"

The NEXT DAY, photographer George Bucur posts FOR REAL on his facebook page "I am feeling generous today so i will give a free photoshoot to the first person who likes this post"..and i was the first! I @#$% you not!!!

We waited for better weather and for me to put my summer tires on and finally had the shoot a couple of weeks ago. I "shadowed" George with my own camera so you can see the difference.

So for example, here is one of my pics:







and here are George's











quite the difference, eh?



another comparo...mine







his







you get the idea...so i will just post his as they are better































a few closeups















Thanks again to George for his generosity.

don't sell yourself short. your photos look the same as his as far as the base goes. all you need are a little photoshop skills.

A bit heavy on the HDR, but a great shoot nonetheless!

Gotcha! The third the photo down just looked like HDR to me to pull the sky back in. A while ago I did a few years of professional wedding photography but am too busy now and just maintain it as a hobby (I shoot on a 5DIII and a Leica M). Really nice set nonetheless.

awesome touch up by GB.. congrats..
CL's wallet is interesting.. it's not practical though as it may damage your C63's leather seats! hehe
CL's - i'd stick to them sexy high heeled shoes for the women..

haha true on all counts..i usually put something in front of the spikes for protection.

as for louboutin, you are right..they do make shoes for men but any time i have seen a guy wear them, he has turned out to be a complete dou&#^bag
