Ian Gibbs
Throughout high school, I was deeply passionate about cars, but there was one major obstacle: I was broke. With no funds to buy or modify a cool car, I had to find another way to immerse myself in the car community. While I enjoyed attending car shows, I felt like a mere spectator rather than a true participant.
One day, after downloading Instagram on my iPhone, I was captivated by the stunning car photos I saw. Inspired, I decided to try taking my own photos at the next car show using my phone. I was instantly hooked. I began snapping pictures at every show and of every interesting car I encountered. After about a year of phone photography and experimenting with mobile editing, I knew it was time to upgrade to a dedicated camera.
After months of research, I chose the Sony a6000 with a kit lens. It was a steep learning curve, filled with YouTube tutorials and countless questions, but I finally started to get the hang of it. Unfortunately, after two years of capturing moments with the a6000, my camera bag was stolen from my classroom at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Though I was disheartened, I didn’t let it deter me.
I found a great deal on a Sony a7III paired with a Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 lens, and it was a game changer. This experience taught me that high-quality gear isn’t a prerequisite for pursuing your passion. If you’re truly passionate about something, you’ll find a way to make it work, regardless of the obstacles.
Thank you so much for your ongoing support of the brand. I look forward to many more years of sharing this journey with you!
