Default Sorry, but Sideline Sports Photography will not be at Road America

We've officially been locked out! : )

Edmunds is your man this weekend, folks! Hope we can be at RA next year!

We will be at GingerMan on Sept 8-9. Brainerd on Sept 10-11, Heartland Park on October 22-24 and at the Portland International and VIR events.

We also have a few private track rental days likely coming up in the future, so contact us if you want to drive!

Take care!

GO USA (US vs Brazil in Women's Soccer 45 minutes! Writing you from the stadium!)

Mike (and Leslie says "Hi")

Default The guy last year at Road America

Used film, not digital, I was like what's with this????

I bought a package from him, paid him for it, he was going to send me my 8x10 or whatever I bought....and never sent it.

It was impossible to ever get a hold of him again, even working through ACCNA.....bummer.

Default I have heard that a lot! I have another PCA friend who paid and never received his photos too!

Michael Klaskin, if you know him. I have heard of many people having this problem. Paid in full, no delivery of prints. I don't get it.

The RA photographer is a guy named Edmunds. I do not have his info, but he can be tracked down by calling Road America.

Call RA (number easily found online) and ask for Cheryl Barnes, Media Relations Director. She can put you in touch with Edmunds.

Or you can get in touch with Larry Boyer, the event organizer for this years event. He was in charge of setting up the photography this year and past and he can get in touch with Edmunds for you. They apparently have a long time frienship, so I'm sure he can sort it out.

As you know, Paul, we appreciate your business and always get back to you, as well as even supplying what you paid for! Imagine! : )

Hope the A8 is running well! Going to Brainerd or Gingi?

Write me at Mikessp@ameritech.net if you need any more help, or just write to me on the forum.

Take care and good luck!

Default Oops. Forgot one thing.Yah, Edmunds (RA Photog) is not digital. You get what he wants to sell you...

In the size he has with him. Few choices of images or sizes. No CD-ROM's, no Credit Card acceptance, no onsite printing, no sales trailer, etc.

We work coast to coast shooting car club events, 60+ per year. It's our specialty and I don't think there is a company in the country who offers the trailer set up of the level we do (mobile store with Sat TV, A/C, etc).

Wish we could be there.

Default No style to those puppies! Wheels frozen, glare from being shot at the wrong angle...

I could go on.

The one of you getting a little bent is cool, though.

We take so much time to set up our shots with the sun, use polarizers, etc, to avoid as much glare as possible. We also shoot at whatever shutter speed is necessary to keep the wheels spinning well while at the same time the car as sharp as possible. We try to offer magazine quality shots.

Thanks for the compliments.

Leslie (PS - Mike says "Hi")

PS - What did you pay for those (size? price?), if you don't mind me asking. We WILL NOT change are pricing, just curious.
