Shooting My Brother-in-Law


Ray and the El Camino

Ray has been threatening to change the engine on his vintage El Camino for a while now. I knew he'd been tinkering with it for a couple weeks, doing just that, but I was surprised when he asked me to make some pictures of it for him. I went over this morning. At first I thought I'd take some strobe lights but, on second thought, I didn't want to make a big production out of it. I stuck with available light and a 28-300mm lens. He'd said he wanted pictures of his engine ... but i think he was really looking for a portrait and didn't want to phrase it quite like that.

Anyway, I think i got a good portrait out of it, both for him and for me.
