If any of you guys are subscribed to "The Official Ferrari Magazine" then you may have seen this shoot in the most recent issue (issue #18). I had the awesome opportunity to work directly with Ferrari North America and the great people over at The Official Ferrari Magazine and put together the "City Guide" article using a 458 Italia Spider and beautiful Chicago. The brief was to photograph the car in locations that would appeal to the Ferrari clientele; high end shops, attractive tourist spots, restaurants, ect. It was a very "run and gun" shoot. We shot on a Thursday afternoon downtown Chicago, not exactly the most appealing time due to traffic and sheer amount of people, but I'm pretty excited about how the project turned out.

The collection of photos below are a mix of photos that were and were not used in the feature. I still have a few more to go through and post up, so check back soon to see the updates. I'll also be posting up a fairly large post on my website with some behind-the-scenes images and more! Jeremy Cliff Photography « Coming Soon!

Quick iPhone snap of the opening page of the article as well as a print of one of the images.

Second to last one is my favorite, killer series Jeremy!

 

Nice!

 

These pictures alone make we want to move to Chicago! And obviously drive the car lol, great job man.

 

Awesome pics.

 

Thank you sir! I'm fond of that one as well, it's a different take on a spot that has been used and abused over the year. Could be better, but I'm happy overall.

Thank you!

haha. That's awesome. If you've never been to Chicago I highly recommend it! It's a great place to visit or live.

I appreciate it!
