Photographing a Custom Van while Talking to the Owner during Bring A Trailer Shoot

I really enjoyed talking with Chris, the owner of this custom van, as I photographed it for the car auction site Bring A Trailer in the Monterey, California area. This van is highly customized, having started out life as a passenger van, but now outfitted with solar, a wi-fi extender, and a shower! Chris was very helpful during the car auction photography shoot allowing me to get the best photos possible of the van, inside and out, so it can sell for the best price on Bring A Trailer. He pointed out all the custom details and helped getting the high up solar panel roof shot. Thank you Chris for choosing me as your photographer and I hope the van goes to a good new owner!

Custom Mini Cooper Photographed for Bring A Trailer car auction site

Bruce put a lot of work into modifying his Mini Cooper from engine boosting to custom exterior lights, the exhaust, and even the door sills! Still, it is time for Bruce to say good-bye to his Mini Cooper so he contacted me about making professional photos of it for selling it on the car auction site Bring A Trailer. We met at an abandoned parking lot on the CSUMB campus (don’t tell anyone, ha!) to make the series of photos car auctions sites like Bring A Trailer need and want. I enjoyed working with Bruce photographing his Mini Cooper from exterior, to engine bay, to the interior. Thank you Bruce for choosing me as your car auction photographer and good luck with the sale!

Car Auction Photographer for Bonhams in Pebble Beach and Monterey for 1941 Mercury Woody

Pebble Beach Car Auction Photography for Bonhams with a Mercury Woody

There were several challenges with this car auction photography shoot for Bonhams Auctions. One was the weather, which at this time of year in the Monterey peninsula area, and here in Pebble Beach to be exact, is fog and the marine layer basically being omnipresent for days and days at a time. There was a deadline to make for this shoot making it into the guidebook for Qual, so even though there was no blue sky or sunshine, I had to make the best of the weather conditions. Then the second big challenge was that the car does not start, so it could not be moved once rolled out of the garage! I thought the helpers were going to stay and push it around for me while I shoot from the spot with both the best light and best background, as I always have for car auction photography, but this time instead of the car rotating for me, I had to rotate around the car! Despite these two big challenges, I was still pleased with the photos I was able to produce for Bonhams, and more importantly, so was my contact from Bonhams. Thank you Eric for understanding!
