Auto Enthusiast Network was founded on this premise by Shawn Brereton as a way to allow anyone the opportunity to document the story of their car. You no longer have to spend a ton of money on your car or know the right person to have a feature done on it.
Through detailed storytelling featuring high-quality photography, utilizing the latest in full-frame DSLR and post-processing technology, the results will amaze you. AEN offers a more personal experience with various packages tailored to your budget and will work with you to make sure you are happy and proud of the finished product.
Professionalism
Our photographers are some of the most experienced in the automotive realm. But, it doesn’t stop there. Each photographer is handpicked — not only to ensure you get high-quality photos, but to make sure they treat you (and your car) with integrity, respect, and a high level of care and customer service.
As enthusiasts ourselves, we won’t put our signature on anything we wouldn’t be proud to display in our own homes. If there is ever a problem, we are just a phone call away. Each photographer can provide you with references upon request.
Flexible Schedule
Hey, sometimes things happen — especially when it comes to cars and weather — two things a photoshoot is dependent upon! Obviously, the weather dictates a lot when it comes to getting that perfect shot. On the day of your scheduled shoot, we will be in close contact with you to make sure we are comfortable with the conditions. If something isn’t right, no worries, we can always reschedule. We just ask for common courtesy of letting us know before we head to the location!
Latest Technology
Much like in the automotive world, high-quality equipment is not cheap. But, our photographers utilize some of the best camera equipment money can buy. Depending on the photographer and the type of shoot, they may use a variety of camera bodies, lenses, lighting, and/or flashes. Post-processing is performed by each individual photographer but most use the latest and greatest from the Adobe suite of products. Our website uses the latest version of WordPress and our theme is responsive on all platforms.
Experience
The majority of our photographers and writers have been in the automotive industry for many years. Some of them have even been editors of well-known titles. We evaluate every photographer and writer through our onboarding process and review their portfolio of work before they can fly the AEN flag. Every article is reviewed by experienced copy editors before it is published.
Pricing
We understand times are tight on many folk’s wallets. We will work with you to make sure you get the biggest bang for your buck without breaking your bank account. That is why we have several different levels of product offerings. After all, we want you to come back!
Many professional photographers charge twice as much and they still own the rights to the photos! So, if you want a print or a different size, you have to go through them. With Auto Enthusiast Network, you OWN the photos once we hand them over to you. You have to give AEN and/or the photographer the right to use them in marketing materials or to post on the website.
Individual Approach
To us, there is nothing more important than the personal approach. Every person, car, and situation is different — it’s what makes every shoot special. We work with you — together as a team — to get the shots YOU want. Again, if you’re not happy, we’re not happy. This should be an exciting experience for you, and we feel privileged that you chose AEN for your shoot. We value you as a customer and will do everything within our means to ensure you have a terrific experience.
