Kevin's E30: Sponteous Aligning

You know those days when nothing goes according to plan, and somehow… that’s exactly what needed to happen? This was one of those days. The house I was supposed to shoot just so happen to not be ready.  Miscommunication happens I usually reschedule, regroup, maybe grab a coffee and call it a day. 

But for some reason, I didn’t feel like heading home just yet instead, I decided to explore the neighborhood. No agenda. Just me, the streets, and my camera—because let’s be honest, I rarely go anywhere without it.

And then I saw it.

Tucked quietly behind some overgrown hedges was this house.  Something about it just stopped me in my tracks.

I saw it was for sale, checked how long it was live (to make sure no one was currently living there) and started to shoot. 

While shooting, that’s when it hit me: a car  needs to be shot here. That’s when I got the vision: a car needs to be shot here. Not just any car. Something with presence, character—something that matched the mood of the space. Instantly, I thought of Kevin. 

Later on in the day I sent him a quick text: “You free? I have the perfect house to shoot with your e30”He hit me back fast. “Tell me when and where you need me”

A couple hours later , we pulled back  up. Burgundy paint glowing in the late afternoon light, the car idling like it knew it was about to be part of something special.

No plan. Just a perfect location, a classic e30 and a camera.

We shot everything. The angles, the reflections, the way the E30 sat in front of that house like it had always belonged there. Kevin didn’t need direction he and the car fit the space. 

It all just clicked.

What started as a canceled appointment turned into one of those rare, spontaneous moments where everything aligns. The house. The light. The car. The timing.

Sometimes, the best things happen when the plan falls apart.

This was the result of the stars aligning.
