Free car photos?

[Rogue86]

Hi everyone, hope nobody minds this being here.

I'm looking to update my website for 2013 with some recent images, unfortunately I've been stuck in the Middle-East since the start of it so I've got a bit of catching up to do when I'm home. Please understand that my site is non-profit; I'm already an employed photographer and the site is simply an online portfolio (which is outdated by several months now), and cars are a guilty pleasure for me.

I'm looking for interesting/rare cars to photograph. I'm based in Lincolnshire, but will travel depending on the car. As a gesture of thanks, you'll get a CD of images and some free prints in a size of your choice (up to 12x8" max).

If you think your car is interesting and would like to take advantage of this, please either let me know here or by emailing [e-mail] - I'm particularly interested in shooting US cars at the moment (it's a phase I seem to be going through). I'm not looking to conduct these photo-shoots at short-notice, as I'm still out in here for some time yet, so at the moment I'm merely trying to gauge interest and give plenty of time for planning, especially as I understand you guys have had a fair bit of snow lately!

Here are a couple of very brief examples of my work. The first, my own car, was shot a couple of days before deploying here while I was at home.

This one was shot a week or so ago. Another quick job as I was supposed to be elsewhere:

Thanks for looking. If you're unsure about anything above, please just ask. I'd like to reiterate that this is not to make profit, nor is it an advertisement.

Just a quick bump, if this receives no interest in here I'll be looking to move it elsewhere within the next 24 hours or so, as I've already had a lot of interest elsewhere.

If my 67 Mustang is any use, you can use that. I'm based nr Eastwood, Nottingham.

Depends how quickly you want to do the pics.... I'm just finishing my Ultima Can Am (GM LS3 engine) for March registration. Would be nice to get some good pics once it's on the road. See here.... www.facebook.com/ultima.can.am.build

Thanks for the responses, both of those cars would certainly be suitable. I'm not back in the UK for at least another 4-6 weeks, so there's no rush on this. I'm just trying to get as many names down as possible so that I can then draw up a short-list and contact the respective owners. Please, tell your friends!

Hi, Noble P4 available if your coming down towards Worcester.

Chris.

[Rogue86]

Chris, that car is beautiful. I'm sure I can arrange a trip down at your convenience.

I've not got anything special but I'd be happy to help if you wanted to photograph my car:

Hi would be great to get some of the T70 if it suits what you have in mind

[Rogue86]

Thanks once again for the replies, they're very much appreciated. Unfortunately, the MX5 isn't what I'm looking for, although it does look a great car. The T70 and Maserati will be added to my list. Once I've got a comprehensive list of cars sorted, I'll draw up a short-list and contact the respective owners to arrange a shoot. This will be a fairly lengthy process as I'm not back in the UK for 4-6 weeks yet, so I'm giving these threads as much time as possible to allow a variety of cars to be submitted.

Fancy snapping a fabulous Maserati 250F replica ? I never managed to do it justice, although I was being chased by a BiPlane the last time I took it out...



The car is owned by Andy, a really nice chap, he lives in Southall, contact him here and say Rich sent you.

Did you mean Southwell? If so I've seen this car! Also a guy up the road with 2 old baguetti's ie pre 1935!

E63 M6..?

I'm in Leicestershire

[Rogue86]

Would be interested in all of the above cars at this stage, particularly the 458. Do you have any pictures of these cars? I'm trying to gauge colours so that I can produce not only varied images, but an initial idea of backdrops (also interested in smaller details etc)

If there is enough genuine interest in a calendar once the images are produced, I can arrange that (provided people would be happy with a small percentage of their money going to a military charity, rather than me taking any funds from it.
