Welcome to Kabizzz, your premier destination for car photography in Scotland!

As a professional car photographer based in Scotland, I have had the opportunity to work with some of the most stunning vehicles in the world, set against the breathtaking landscapes of my country.

In this blog, I will share with you my approach to car photography and how I use my Canon R5 and EF/RF lenses to capture stunning images of vehicles in Scotland.

First and foremost, it's important to have a clear vision and concept in mind before beginning a car photoshoot. This could be anything from highlighting the sleek lines and curves of a sports car to capturing the ruggedness and power of an off-road vehicle.

Once I have a clear idea of what I want to achieve, I begin scouting locations. Scotland is home to some of the most diverse and stunning landscapes in the world, from rolling green hills and rugged coastlines to towering mountain ranges and picturesque lochs. I spend a lot of time researching and visiting potential locations to find the perfect setting for each photoshoot.

When it comes to equipment, I rely on my Canon R5 and a selection of RF lenses to capture the perfect shot. The Canon R5 is a full-frame mirrorless camera with 45 megapixels of resolution, which allows me to capture incredibly detailed and high-quality images. I also love the versatility of the RF/EF lenses, which offer a wide range of focal lengths and aperture options to suit a variety of shooting situations.

One of my favorite EF lenses for car photography is the Canon EF 70-200mm F2.8L IS USM II. This lens is perfect for capturing close-up shots of car details, such as wheels or grilles, as well as full-length shots of the vehicle. The fast F2.8 aperture also allows me to create beautiful bokeh and isolate the car from the background.

For wider shots, I often use the Canon EF 16-35mm F2.8L IS USM lens. This lens is great for capturing sweeping landscapes and establishing shots of the car in its environment.

Lighting is also a crucial element in car photography. I always try to take advantage of natural light, using the time of day and weather conditions to my advantage. Golden hour, just before sunrise and just after sunset, is a particularly magical time for car photography, as the soft, warm light creates a beautiful, natural glow on the vehicle.

When working with artificial light, I use a combination of strobes and continuous lights to highlight specific features of the car and add dimension to the image. I also pay close attention to reflections, as these can be used to add depth and detail to the image.

Post-processing is another important aspect of car photography. I use Adobe Photoshop to enhance the colors, contrast, and overall aesthetic of the image. I also use these tools to remove any distractions or imperfections in the background.

Car photography is all about finding the perfect combination of location, equipment, lighting, and post-processing to capture the beauty and character of each unique vehicle. Whether it's a classic car, a sports car, or an off-road vehicle, I strive to showcase the unique personality of each car and the stunning landscapes of Scotland.
