Hi, I’m a Car Photographer, and I’ve done quite a few shoots in the past, some free some paid, with some amazing cars, for example I shot a lamborghini tour in the Yorkshire dales and an M5 & X7 for a car dealership. I’ve probably made about £300 in total from photography. I’ve emailed about 10-15 Companies around me asking if they would be interested in my photography, social media management & developing videography skills, with quite professional sounding emails. I’ve not told any of the company’s the price or the fact I’m 14, but haven’t got any responses at all even though I genuinely think I could help companies- I’m stuck on what to do. Any advice is appreciated or critique on my photos. I have a free photoshoot this Sunday of a Porsche 356, as I know the owner quite well (who also has a 992 GT3) but nothing after. Thanks so much

    Patience is huge. You have some great shots in there. Sunrise and sunset are your friends. If at all possible shoot then. Study others to see what they’re doing. http://www.roephoto.com/ https://www.rochephoto.com/ https://www.imageaj.com/ https://trahanphoto.com/

    Car to car is tough to do and dangerous. Wear a harness. A gimble or a gyro will help a ton.

    For still shots get a good tripod and use it. A lot of the beautiful images you see of cars are a composite of multiple images and some have long shutter speeds because you’re shooting in lower light at f/16-ish.

    For panning shots shoot about 20 more than you think you need. Play with shutter speeds to achieve the background blur you want.

    Study the car your shooting to see how the manufacturer wanted it shot.

    Did I mention patience? Remember that.

    Good luck you’re doing really well so far. It’s great you’re taking advantage the access to some amazing cars.
