Rick Chou Studios Shoots for VW

"We were in Vegas for 3 days this past weekend, it was for a VW assignment. We had triple digit heat, worked on a dirt lot. Generators went down, tents got blown off in 50mile/hr gust (took me down bouncing on the ground), power pack went up in smoke, printers wouldn’t print.... Miraculously, yet as expected, the end result was great, ha, agency and VW is raving about it, and I get to tell glorious war stories."

"I had two retouchers drop the cars against white and made nice prints to give to the owners. It was a hit. I also had a roaming photographer taking interesting shots of cars and people."


"You can check it out. We built this mobile studio on location so the enthusiasts could bring their cars to it and get photographed."


While Rick took professional studio images, his roaming assistant, Michael Raabe, captured crowd and "true" personality shots.


The event was a huge success. To see more photos of the event, visit their Facebook page.
