Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2 Balboni

Posted by lee

It’s not everyday you get given a Lamborghini, well not exactly given, more of a loan from Auckland Lamborghini which also comes with a HUGE insurance excess.  I had the car for 2 days while I was on a shoot up in Auckland, the crazy thing is that the Lambo wasn’t even the main subject, it was just as a prop and to keep the boat that I was shooting company. Crazy eh !

Just a note to any photographers that might be thinking of having one of these as a work car, you can fit one tripod, one light stand, one small camera bag, an Elinchrome Ranger kit with one light and 135mm Octa and thats it ! Conclusion – not very practical but you will be never be late to a shoot again…

Thanks to Lee at Independent Prestige for the loaning me this amazing car.

I also learnt a very important lesson when trying to shoot a shiny black car at night on location, take the metallic grey Aston Martin instead !
