Question 1

How do I get started?

Accepted Answer

Getting started is easy. Just head over to our Contact Page and drop in your details. We’ll need the basics – your contact info, details on your vehicle(s), and a quick rundown of what you have in mind for the project. Once you submit your request, we’ll reach out to schedule your pre-shoot consultation so we can lock in the vision, the location(s), and get your shoot on the calendar.

Question 2

Where are you located, and do you travel?

Accepted Answer

Gasoline & Dopamine is proudly based in Gilbert, Arizona, Zip Code 85296. We routinely shoot all over the East Valley and the greater Phoenix area. We know the best shots usually require getting out of the driveway, so we are absolutely willing to travel to track down the perfect desert highway, industrial backdrop, or urban grid for your project. If your preferred location falls outside our standard East Valley radius, a small travel fee will be applied to your tab to cover the extra time and mileage. We will always discuss this with you upfront during your consultation.

Question 3

What's your kit?

Accepted Answer

We shoot on a Canon EOS R50 mirrorless body, utilizing modern RF lens architecture. We carry three pieces of standard glass, plus extra supporting gear to ensure we always get you the best shot: an 18-45mm f/4.5-6.3 for adjustable wide angle shots, a 50mm f/1.8 Prime lens for crisp depth of field, laser sharp close ups, and low-light / night shooting, a 100mm-400mm f/5.6-8 telescoping zoom lens for isolating tight details and compressing distant backgrounds, tripods for dynamic perspective shots, circular polarizing (CPL) filters to cut through reflections and glare, lots of batteries so we can stay out all day if needed, and camera and chase vehicles can be arranged if required.

Question 4

What's it like working with you?

Accepted Answer

It’s laid back, but highly focused. Think of it less like a stuffy formal photoshoot and more like hanging out with a fellow enthusiast who happens to bring professional photography gear. We always start by getting on the same page during your pre-shoot consultation. This can be in person, over the phone, by text, or online – whatever you’re most comfortable with. The goal is always to get you exactly what you want. Then on shoot day, we meet up, talk cars a little, then get to work. The vibe is always collaborative and entirely focused on making your project look incredible. No stress, no pretentiousness – just good locations, great lighting, perfect composition, and a shared passion for the culture.

Question 5

Who are G&D's customers?

Question 8

What's your pricing model?

Accepted Answer

We offer flexible pricing based on project type and complexity. There are a number of shoot packages you can review on our Services Page. We are also open to custom jobs. If you have a vision, we would love to help you achieve it. Details and costs can be agreed upon during the pre-shoot consultation.

Question 9

How long until I get my photos back?

Accepted Answer

It should never take more than a week for you to get your photos. We usually aim to have them back to you within a couple of days, depending on project size. We use state of the art photo retouching software and standardized editing processes to help speed things up, but we care about the final product as much as you do, so every image gets a custom pass to ensure its quality.

Question 10

How do I order prints of my car?

Accepted Answer

Once your photo editing is complete, you will receive a secure link to your private digital gallery. If there are shots that you want to get printed, we’ll take your order, and we’ll get them made for you through our premium print partners.

Question 11

How can I use the photos from our photoshoot?

Accepted Answer

Our standard photography packages are designed for personal and recreational use by default. Perfect for sharing your ride with the community. If you need the shots to do heavy lifting for a business, brand, or marketing project, we can easily set that up too. Commercial use requires a small Commercial Usage Fee, express written permission from Gasoline and Dopamine LLC, and proper credit.

Question 12

Do you provide RAW, unedited image files?

Accepted Answer

Two answers: Yes, we do provide our customers with all the unedited image files from their photoshoot in JPEG form alongside the hand-edited selects from their photography package when we deliver the project. No, we do not provide our customers with the RAW files from the shoot. By default, Gasoline & Dopamine maintains the rights to all RAW files we create. However, if a client wants the rights to the RAW files for any reason, a small transfer fee can be negotiated on a per project basis..
