Mercedes Benz Driving Academy

Cars, people, schedules and lighting made for a potentially complicated, 5 day shoot. When shooting with so many variables it’s important to shoot as fast and loose as possible. So, to get great shots with as little retouching in post-production as possible, we shot with a beauty dish. Likewise, to keep our models fluid and less staged, we improvised areas of motion (like the kid doing an ollie near the car).

Our images are now being used on their website and in full-page newspaper ads across North America.

WHAT CLIENTS SAY

Pauline O’Malley

Barry Calhoun is the BEST professional photographer I have worked with. Not only did he ensure that I was relaxed for the shoot, he also brought in a professional stylist who works with the like of Holt Renfrew to ensure that models looks their best. Thanks you Barry. I have never received more compliments than from the shots you took of me for my website, marketing collateral and personal brand.

I call on Barry and his team because he’s extremely adaptable, cost effective and easy to work with (not all creatives are so easy going and they thus hijack the project intent or don’t allow push back without jacking their rates. Not cool). Normally photographers focus on an area of expertise (like portraiture, editorial, products, stock art, travel), but Barry is a multi-hyphenate...
