Andy Batt's profile

Verizon Indy Car Racing



Gritty. Authentic. Badass.
When mcgarrybowen came to us with the Verizon Indy Car project, these were some of the descriptions they put on the table. The cars were fast, and so was the timeline for the shoot. None of this was a problem once we assembled the right team. 

Indycar photographer Andy Batt was hired to create the "apollo 13" or "the right stuff" heroic moment. This is the badass Team Penske Indycar drivers Juan Paul Montoya, Will Power and Helio Castroneves for Verizon Wireless. Mcgarrybowen commissioned action photographer Andy Batt because of his dramatic lighting techniques and experience capturing high-intensity speed. "I wanted to create that quintessential image of the drivers as heroes, surrounded by their pit crew, but not overshadowed by them. We scouted all the surrounding areas of charlotte motor speedway- and the best area by far was under the stands."

The legend, the hero, the Australian motorsports driver who currently competes in the IndyCar Series, driving for Team Penske. Will Power the most successful road and street course race winner in the series' history. This gritty sport portrait was shot for Verizon on the Charlotte Motor Speedway. We were hired by Verizon to create badass, emotional driven moments, never before seen connection with the racer. authentic sport portrait photographer Andy Batt captured this moment.

My fastest shoot ever. Strapped on the back of a camera car, being chased by badass Verizon Indycar drivers Will Power and Helio Castroneves, this action shot is also a sport portrait of two heroes of the race world. All business, capturing moments of emotion that run so fast, you miss it if you blink. But if you look closely, you can see the authentic smiles on their faces, these real urban warriors filled with gritty determination to win. photographed by dramatic sports photographer Andy Batt.
