A new Pebble Beach location for Corvette Z06 Auction Photography
I have photographed several cars for auction for Brian of Peixoto Auto Group in the past. They were all his client’s cars (a Lexus, a Mustang . This time though, it was much more personal as his very own Corvette Z06 Convertible was to be in front of my camera! Add to that we were trying out a new location and the variables that brings, I wanted to be focused and make sure I delivered once again for Brian a set of photos that will really drive the bids up when he lists it on Bring A Trailer. The new location was a spot I had considered for a while, the large turnoff area on 17-Mile Drive called Bird Rock. There is a lot of space there, so even if it had some tourists, there would be space. Well, there were way, way more tourists there than I thought, in fact at one time 3 bus fulls!! Not only that, the local wildlife was getting in on the action. While trying to get a low angle shot, I see appear right under my camera a squirrel very much unafraid of me and looking like it wanted a snack! I said sorry buddy, no food, only a camera — haha.
Despite all the usual variables, I was very happy with this location and glad with the set of images I was able to make of Brian’s Z06. He even got in for a couple of photos himself. I was glad to be able to provide these memories for him before he says goodbye to his Corvette.
Thank you Brian for continuing to choose me as your car auction photographer! Good luck with the auction!
Brian has hired you before to photograph cars for his clients, but this time the Corvette was his own personal car.
Car auction photography for Bring a Trailer listings in Monterey and Pebble Beach
A strong auction gallery needs more than a few nice hero shots. It needs consistent exterior coverage, interior photos, detail images, condition-focused angles, and images that help buyers feel confident in the vehicle before they ever see it in person.
For Bring a Trailer, Cars & Bids, private sales, and broker listings, I photograph vehicles with a complete auction presentation in mind from the very beginning.
5-Star Feedback From a Returning Auto Broker Client
This was another shoot for Brian of Peixoto Auto Group, and his feedback reflects the kind of trust, consistency, and attention to detail that matters when photographing cars for online auction listings.
Behind the Scenes of the Shoot
Photographing this Corvette Z06 Convertible at Bird Rock in Pebble Beach gave the shoot a dramatic coastal setting, but it also came with the kind of real-world moments that make an on-location car shoot memorable. While I was getting a low-angle shot with the ocean in the background, a very confident squirrel walked right up to me, clearly more interested in possible snacks than car auction photography.
Brian also wanted a portrait with the Corvette, which made sense because this was his own car being prepared for sale. After photographing cars for his clients before, it meant a lot that he trusted me to photograph his personal Corvette Z06 Convertible with the same care, detail, and auction-focused approach.
These behind-the-scenes photos show a little of what goes into making a full car auction gallery: finding the right location, working the angles, using supplemental lighting when needed, and creating images that help the vehicle stand out while still accurately showing the car.
Thank you to Brian for sharing two of these photos he made of me in action!
Hero and Feature Images
These are the images designed to make the first impression. For a performance car like a Corvette Z06 Convertible, strong hero photos help the listing feel more exciting from the start while still keeping the vehicle itself as the clear focus.
Interior and Driver-Focused Details
The red interior is one of the standout features of this Corvette Z06 Convertible, so I made sure to include images that show the driver’s view, steering wheel, cabin materials, and performance-focused design. Interior photos help buyers understand the condition, feel, and personality of the car.
Coastal Exterior Angles
The Bird Rock location added a dramatic Pebble Beach backdrop to the standard exterior coverage. These images show the Corvette from the key angles buyers expect, while the ocean setting gives the gallery a stronger sense of place and visual impact.
Auction Listing Coverage
A complete auction gallery also needs practical images beyond the dramatic hero shots. These photos help document the vehicle for serious buyers, including the areas, accessories, and supporting details that are important in a Bring a Trailer listing.
Corvette Z06 Detail Photos
Badges, wheels, trim, and close-up design elements help round out the story of the car. These detail images give the gallery more depth and help highlight the features that make this Z06 Convertible stand out.
Car Photography for Auctions, Brokers, and Personal Vehicles
Whether you are selling your own car or preparing a client vehicle for auction, professional photography helps the listing make a stronger first impression. For Bring a Trailer, Cars & Bids, dealer listings, broker sales, and private sales, I create complete image galleries designed to show the vehicle clearly, attractively, and confidently.
