This is the first in a series of tutorials in which Karl shoots a Mercedes AMG GT sports car, introducing the fundamentals of car photography and showing you how to capture the classic three-quarter angle. In this step-by-step class, you’ll discover the equipment, lighting and styling behind the gorgeous final shot. You’ll see every stage of the shoot, including how Karl tests different focal lengths and angle of views to get the best composition, what lighting techniques he uses to minimise reflections, how he combines continuous light with flash, and how he achieves an elegant gradient lighting over the bodywork of the car. Covering important considerations, outlining common problems, and demonstrating how to overcome them, this in-depth class will equip you with the knowledge you need to shoot professional car images.
