Hi all,
I write buying guides for the UK classic car magazines and my next subject is the R129. We need to photograph a good representative example in southern England next week (hopefully this week's snow will clear at the weekend!).
As the 500 was the most popular and most complex (apart from the AMGs!) it would make sense to photograph a 500. What is important is that the car is a bright colour that will photograph well if we get a dull day (red and blue are best - white is out because the opening pics are set against a white background, and silver doesn't really work either as it looks washed out on a white background!). We will come to you to photograph your car, and the shoot takes 2-3 hours (usually 10am to c12:30) - there will be a series of static shots and a couple of driving shots with you driving. The mag will provide a set of photos and copies of the issue when it's published, and will reimburse your petrol costs.
If you think you've got the car we're looking for, and you're located in central southern England, please drop me a line!
Thanks
Malcolm
