Car photography after all

Car photography after all
Car photography is a very special profession, especially here in the motherland of the automobile. Last week I photographed cars for various magazines in England and Germany. Across the model history of Suzuki Europe. Obviously I hit a nerve with my kind of car photography, or more precisely, the demands of my colleagues. And it’s fair to say that the requirements of the German magazines differ somewhat from those of the English. What the English explicitly demand leads to direct excommunication in German magazines. Listening carefully and working with concentration is essential so that the various orders don’t get mixed up.
Obviously everyone got what they needed, because the reactions after the pictures were sent were really nice:
  • “These are excellent, thank you very much. I hope we will work together again!”
  • “That is perfect, thanks very much!”
  • “Thanks again for the support and the pleasant collaboration. I really like the photos!”

Surprisingly, it is rather unusual that all of my colleagues have really thanked me and left feedback. I’m particularly pleased that it was positive across the board. There are customers who only express their feedback by paying the bill on time. Which is not the worst thing…

If I could now get all the specimen copies, the next article on the subject of car photography would already be here.
