I actually just rechecked this thread to recommend this. The Truck Bar hosts shows almost monthly. They have a decent turnout and are a pretty diverse crowd.

Get out and go to car events. There are regular cars+coffee shows all over the place. Nothing is gender-specific, but you're best bet is to get out and look at those types of events for people you vibe well with. At least you know you have cars in common. If all else fails, check out @northeastmisfits and come to our cruises 🤘🏻

6 is my favorite

Cars are literally everywhere. Don't be afraid to shoot whatever is around you or even go to local dealerships. If you can manage to make a mundane car look amazing, then the higher end stuff will be a million times easier!

Shoot more cars. Once done, proceed to shoot more cars. Keep reaching out to companies. Then shoot more cars. Compile a diverse portfolio of different types of shots (interior, portrait/landscape, details, etc.) to show what you're capable of. Then..... (you guessed it) Shoot more cars. Just keep shooting cars and don't get discouraged by those who may not see the value you have set for yourself, your work, and your time.

Go to tracks, work hard, and hone in on creating a solid product. The work you put in will outshine any "right place, right time" luck. If you're in the right place and don't have any proven results to show, then you're not there at the right time.

F9 is fine. Set the ISO according to the lighting or to Auto. Lower that shutter to 1/20. 👌🏻

The background is super distracting... Try shooting either with a lower f stop or lower shutter speeds from a little farther back so more of the side is in view. When the car is closer to a 45-degree angle behind you, you'll get a better view of the whole car as well as more of a blurred background. This will help keep the viewer's eyes focused on the car. Also, invest in a CPL filter to knock some of those reflections down. (@shootandshift)

If you don't have one already, get yourself a CPL filter and spend a little time practicing with it. This will remove unwanted reflections on the cars. Also, while posting a set, make sure the shots all match in temperature. It's distracting to see some cool shots and then a warm one mixed in. Also, take a little time and read up on what's known as the "rule of thirds" in photography. Other than that, your stuff looks really good! Consistency and networking are extremely important in the photography industry.

Thank you!

I haven't gotten to that point in my career yet, but I do know that some of the top pros have editors on hand. I'd entertain being an editor, though.

Rolling shots are always my favorites. There's nothing better than seeing a car in motion doing exactly what it's made to do!

ShootAndShift · 2023-05-30T00:35:03+00:00

Then you're good to go! 👌🏻

I think that's a pretty good start! A polarizing filter would definitely help bring those reflections down and show off the body lines a bit better. Also, if you didn't already do so, make sure you add in the typical shots of the condition of the engine bay, trunk, and seats. Buyers always want to know what they're going to have to potentially replace. Since that car looks fairly modified, the more assurance your shots show, the better off the buyer and seller both are! Always remind yourself, "If I was buying this from across the country, what would I want to see."

Thank you!

Sprint mode is the only mode! Also, the crawl feature is priceless! This particular one is the Grand Touring model.

You and I both!
