Pink Cadillac

Cadillac Bob offered his two pink Cadillacs to Shannon who invited me to shoot her with them. What a fun day. I was at the location at 6 am. Shooting starting sometime around 7:30. We lasted until 11:30 at which time I melted into a puddle in my car.

These shots don't do the car justice. I got some good car shots, but my favorite shots only have hints of the car in them. It's just like me to crop out the focus of the shoot. Well, everybody else's focus, mine is always somewhere else!

This is my favorite:

The windshield shot took a circular polarizer to take most of the glare off of the windshield. It's one of those tools that I don't use often, but it is the perfect tool when you need it! I like the moodiness of the shot and that the focus isn't directly on Shannon. I feel like I'm in the car with her and I took the shot and know that I'm standing off to the side trying not to lean on the hood because it can't take any weight without buckling.

These are my next favorites. All shot with monolights in daylight. Most in the shade, but you'll see some sun peeping through.

Added: There's the car, so you know I wasn't lying! It had horns and everything. Gotta love a '59 Pink Cadillac.
