Dear readers,
We recently introduced Izzy Ferguson - Portrait Photographer , our new photographer from the UK, and she’s already made it onto the cover with her very first shoot for us. Izzy is a talented young photographer who joined the team thanks to Klaus Kloek , and judging by this cover shoot, that was definitely a good call.
Of course, a great shoot also needs the right car, and this Nissan Skyline certainly delivers. It’s a proper head-turner on the road and also picked up one of the five awards at Players Shows . With Goodwood providing the backdrop, we couldn’t have asked for a much better setting.
Klaus made the most of the opportunity and shot the BMW E21 there as well. And why not? The location was pretty special, and with the whole team already there, it would have been a shame not to take advantage of it.
Summer is now in full swing, which means we’re busy travelling across Europe and visiting some of the best international events. Slovakia and the Czech Republic are already ticked off the list, while Portugal and Hungary are still to come. But before we know it, summer will be in the rear-view mirror and it’ll be time to start looking ahead to the autumn and winter show season.
For now, I’m going to put my feet up and enjoy the latest issue. And from September 1, the selection process for gr8ultimatestance officially gets under way.
Enjoy the read)
