Out for a Spin

My three boys have an affinity for cars … and the oldest isn’t even 6 yet. I suppose that get that naturally.

So, I thought I’d take their love of cars (and mine, too) and my passion for photography and find where the two converge.

The backdrop for this was shot during the Fall here in Franklin, TN. The colors are incredible that time of year.

The car is a slightly worn/loved Maisto … a Hot Wheel wannabe … from their collection.

Lighting was a little tricky. I can’t imagine lighting a full-sized car.

I’m working through some new gear and needed to fire off a few test shots. Enter model. I managed to coax my wife who was rather tired from managing her staff of 3 children. Herein are the results. Chimeara softbox camera left. Fill card camera right. Hairlight with grid behind subject camera right. A little cross processing and “wa-la”.
