Avery's CAMARO: Special Editions book was shown for the first time at the 2021 SEMA Show.
The cover image was photographed by Avery, who secured exclusive permission for the waterfront locale and specifically selected the trio of featured vehicles to celebrate the iconic red, white and blue colors Camaro is known the world over for.

"A lot of planning went into the setup but in the end, it was worth it,' said Avery, who included background vehicles and even a sailboat in the arrangement. "My vision was to recreate the striking and colorful marketing images of the 1960s that Chevrolet used so often. I wanted this to have a touch of retro but with a modern flair. My aim was to create something Camaro enthusiasts and fans will truly appreciate."
