Brian and the Roadster
We had no idea when we met him at the Lookout on Ortega Highway on New Years day who Brian was. He rolled up in this amazing Hot Rod, looking like he walked right out of the 1950′s. When we made contact and he agreed to meet us back at the Lookout Road house early on a Saturday morning, we had no idea how great the shoot would go.
However, Brian is as authentic as they come. He wears many hats: He designed and built the awesome hot rod himself. He is a painter of amazing talent. A clothing designer with unmatched style. A musician with a rare set of lungs. A surfer that can rip with the big boys. A minister that is filled with gentle spirituality. He is a devoted, husband and an amazing father.
Everything happens for a reason. A spur of the moment decision to go for a ride; taking the camera on a whim; snapping the photograph that lead to a conversation. The conversation that lead to this collection of photos. You never know what is coming down the road, or why. Sometimes you just have to go with it, and see where it will lead you.
So, yeah, um, these are pretty much really truly amazing…not that I would ever expecting anything less. My favorite is #36. That is just gorgeous.
Um, these are spectacular Chris! I saw you in the Shootout Video and I thought I should head over to the blog and see what you have been up to. I am glad to see that you are busy and working on lots of cool projects…like this one. Seriously, these photos are so awesome! I love this guy! Great work Chris!!!
Thanks Amber! Its good to hear from you.
