Brilliant lens! Fast, contrasty, nice colors - nothing exotic just a wonderful portrait lens. It’s the one lens I don’t even think about upgrading.

Classic cars deserve the timeless look of black and white. This ’64 Studebaker Avanti stole the show. Hard to believe it was once the fastest production car in America. Captured on Arista Edu 100 film with my Canon EOS 1n and 35/1.4L. The harsh sun actually helped those lines pop!

Busy weekend behind the lens! Met in Fayetteville with the camerasandcoffee_nc crew. It’s always a blast collaborating with this group of creatives—the energy is unmatched. The absolute highlight for me was snagging a wonderful street portrait that just clicked. Shot with @canonusa EOS R. #canoneosr

Stopped by the monthly car show in Garner, NC. Even though it’s a smaller show, the variety is top tier! The standouts were a stunning AMC Javelin and a double dose of Ford Falcons, a clean Futura convertible and a classic wagon. Shot on a Canon EOSR and 35/1.4L

Love it when car shows celebrate daily drivers alongside the pristine classics. Saw an AMC Eagle & Crown Vic today—a reminder that it just takes a passionate owner and a story to make a car special. If it’s well-loved, I’m shooting it! 📷: @canonusa R + 35mm/1.4L #carshow #carculture #raleigh

Spent the weekend surrounded by some incredible metal. One car absolutely stole the show: a 1963 Chevy Nova Restomod Wagon. You don’t see long-roofs executed this well very often! I also spent some time admiring the Karmann Ghia—that perfect blend of Italian design and German engineering.
