1958 Cadillac photoshoot

I was recently contacted to photograph a 1958 Cadillac for a gentleman about to make admiral. The collage is to be a surprize gift from his wife celebrating his promotion.

The car is a uniquely colored 1958 Caddy. It had a very strong v8 and drove as spritely as something that weighs 5000 pounds can. We found a great location for our shoot.

cheers

I've been chasing cars since I was a wee little lad. I started out by going to the local Porsche dealership (10 miles away) on my bike and pestering the staff for brochures and the like. (I still have all those brochures from the mid to late 70's as well as showroom pictures)

I enjoy photographing cars and have in the past few years started to focus on that skill. By day I work for Discovery Communications by night automotive and nature photography.

Here are a couple more.

cheers

that is sweet

What a sweet car. Look at that vast expanse of metal from the back of the door sill to the end of the car. Wow! Gotta love those tail fins. Thanks for sharing!

cheers
