Jay's New Toy

I was called back to the Big Dog Garage to photograph Jay again as he was testing out his latest toy, a brand new metallic Orange McLaren Z 90. I'm not quite sure which was more exciting to see.
This is my 4th shoot with Jay and I'm finally beginning to figure him out. First of all, he really is a genuine, down to earth, nice guy. Within minutes you forget who he is and just feel like you are talking to one of the guys. He looks you in the eye and shows no signs of superiority. He's a big kid who loves his toys(obviously) and loves even more sharing with others an insane amount of knowledge about automobiles and their history. He doesn't like to sit still. He's always busy doing something, whether it's The Tonight Show, his biweekly auto blog, or test driving some new car for us magazine folk. I really admire his zest for life.
And lastly, he happens to be really funny!

Jay Leno Skype Test(For Ford)

Spent another day with my BFF Jay at his garage in Burbank while he was testing out a new wireless feature in the Ford Focus. It was a challenging shoot in that I had to capture Jay and the guy he was speaking with via Skype on an Ipad while seated in the car(passengers seat of course). It was hard to show both people clearly. It seems like an odd feature to have wireless in a car. I could only imagine seeing people driving down the road talking on their phones or ipads while dodging traffic. I dunno, maybe it'll be good for long road trips with the kids so they can surf the net or chit-chat with their friends. It seems like an inevitable feature.
