How to Photograph Your Classic Car
Achieving good photographs of your classic car is not difficult.
The difference between good pictures and bland pictures is knowing a few simple tricks, and taking the time to do it well.
WASH THE CAR!
A clean car looks far better in a picture than a dirty one.
Take the time to clean and dry the car, to clean the windows, & dress the tires. Make sure that there aren't any water spots.
This is the single most important thing that you can do.
CHOOSE YOUR SETTING
Where you photograph your car will make a big impact on how the pictures look. Try to find a setting that will make your car stand out.
For example, a red car in a sea of green grass will jump out at you, whereas a white car against a light colored stone wall will get lost.
A dramatic setting will make your car look great, and will make
for a dramatic photo.
ELIMINATE DISTRACTIONS
When shooting the car, look for things in the frame that are distracting you from the car. Is there a telephone pole growing out of the roof?
Is there an object in the background that draws your eye away from the subject? Patrol the area you are shooting for debris,
such as trash, leaves, or sticks.
UNCONVENTIONAL ANGLES
Avoid the temptation to just take the picture from eye level.
Try shooting up at a low angle, which will exaggerate the proportions a bit, and make your car seem more impressive.
Another trick is to use a step ladder and shoot down on the car, giving a sort of bird's eye view.
WIDE ANGLE LENSES
The use of a wide angle lens, or by zooming your camera's built in lens to its widest setting, is a great aid to car photography.
By using a wide angle and getting in close, you get a different perspective. The area closest to the camera will seem larger than normal, while the area furthest from the camera will seem farther away.
By using this technique when shooting automobiles, it can really make the car jump out of the frame.
A wide angle lens is also particularly useful at concours events and car shows, where there is not a lot of room to maneuver, and you want to get close to the car to eliminate people and other distractions.
POLARIZER
If your camera allows the use of filters, buy a polarizer. A polarizer is quite simply one of the most indispensable tools any photographer can have. A polarizer eliminates glare and reflections, increases color saturation, and can improve contrast.
Your car, with all its chrome, glass, and shiny paint, is like a magnet for reflections. By using a polarizer, you can control the reflections, either eliminating them completely, or using them to your artistic advantage.
WHEN TO SHOOT
While you can certainly shoot your car at any time, the best light is typically found just after sunrise, or just before sunset. As the sun "travels across the sky" the lighting direction changes relative to your subject. Not only does the lighting direction change throughout the day, but the color changes as well,
from cool before sunrise to warm just after sunrise to neutral at midday to warmer near sunset to cooler after sunset. Night shots of cars can also be very dramatic, particularly if you have the vehicle in a setting with interesting lighting (neon lights, gas station, lighted signs, etc.)
LIGHTS ON?
When you're shooting, try turning the parking lights on, maybe even the headlights if it's just before dusk, just to add a little drama to your photos.
The most important rule to remember when doing photography is that there are no rules! The best pictures are typically a result of experimenting. Film is relatively cheap (and digital photography is practically free!), so shoot lots of pictures to get a few really good photos.
