Ricky Tran is a passionate automotive photographer whose lens captures the soul of modified cars, with a deep love for BMWs and Nissan Silvias. Over the past two years, he has invested more than 400 hours into shooting and meticulously editing images, transforming raw moments into striking visuals that celebrate car culture.
Currently in his final year of high school (Year 12), Ricky balances academics with hands-on fun. He is slowly building his own E36 while still making time to enjoy the scene. His photography is driven by genuine connection, he thrives on talking with car owners, hearing their stories, and learning about their journeys. For Ricky, the greatest reward is seeing the final images come together after countless hours of work, turning passion into powerful visuals that resonate with fellow enthusiasts.
Looking ahead, Ricky’s goals reflect his love for performance cars. Within the next two years, he hopes to add a BMW E-series 335i or 125i with the N54 engine to his collection, while aiming for a classic S14 Silvia (God saying that makes me feel old) in the next five years. To make this dream a reality, he plans to pursue university and secure a solid job that supports his automotive ambitions.
Whether it’s the raw aggression of a modified BMW or the iconic lines of a Silvia, Ricky’s work highlights the dedication and personality behind every build.
