Dayton cars and coffee -June 7th 2025
DCC — This is where it all started for me.
Two years ago, I showed up with a camera and zero expectations. Just a guy looking to chase something that made sense. It wasn’t a big event then—just a few motorheads gathering in a parking lot, swapping stories and fuel fumes. But there was something there. Something real. These days this is my church. Not the quiet kind. This one hums with the sound of cold starts and smells like oil and burnt rubber. It's where I go to reset. To listen, to look, and to feel a part of something bigger than me.
The June meet rolled in under heavy skies—low clouds, gray light, and that familiar question: “You think people will show?”
They did. They always do. Thanks to the DCC crew and everyone who keeps showing up, rain or shine. Bold rides, bold people, and a vibe that just doesn’t miss.
Next meet: July 5th.
Caffeine and Fuel @ Element Eatery – Cincinnati, Ohio
The day began with a golden sunrise, a strong cup of coffee, and a crisp breeze—the kind of morning that practically begs for a camera in hand. My afternoon was spoken for, but the morning was mine, and I felt that creative spark calling.
As usual, I arrived early—there’s something special about those quiet, pre-event moments. It’s the calm before the storm, the stillness before the shutters start clicking. This was my first time at Caffeine and Fuel, and Element Eatery did not disappoint. The venue’s clean, modern aesthetic provided the perfect backdrop, while a mix of fresh builds and familiar faces made for a welcoming, energized vibe.
Events like this are about more than just the cars—they’re about connection, light, timing, and the little stories unfolding in between. Here are a few highlights from a morning well spent behind the lens.
Meets start each Saturday at 10:00 am.
