I don’t know if it is the lights or the processing, but it looks much more “baby blue” in these pics than in real life. Just in case someone was trying to find examples of Storm Bay Metallic

Did you use blue gels to light it?

Both a blue light and a warm light were used in the shoot, although Storm Bay has quite a bit of blue flake in it.

This is making me rethink my colour choice. Does look Blue.

Great shots. no offence to photographer. Just looks different from other shots.

None taken at all. My favorite part of Storm Bay is the light blue flake in the paint, so that's why I used a blue light to bring that out, as well as a white to counter that and brighten up the car. This was in a completely controlled lighting environment, so it'll be quite different compared to being out in the sun, this paint changes a lot just like most metallic paints. Not to mention nowadays it can really depend on what you're viewing it on, I always have to send my shots to my phone just so I can compare how they look, and I always end up changing a few things compared to how I thought they were on my PC. But lighting changes everything with this one, even these just comparing sunlight vs showroom

I secured my deal for Storm Bay today and these pics make me even happier i did.

Although I'm super jealous of the wheels you have vs the jet black that are going to be on mine. Feel like swapping? 🤞🤞

Photos are indeed beautiful so kudos to the photog but hard to call the car beautiful here when you can barely see it!

Not my M5, I'm just the photographer. Congrats on your M5 though!
