Brian Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 Today I had the pleasure of being invited by my good friend Caleb, owner of Impeccable Image Detailing, to shoot this freshly detailed 2004 Mach 1. Make sure to head over to his Facebook page and contact him for all of your detailing needs. The photos do not do the car justice and unfortunately we were limited on the location but we made the best of it and I think we did a good job. Pictures: I hope you enjoy the content. It's been a while since I've dusted off my camera basically since before winter. I am looking forward to future projects. -Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SublimeRT Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 Ugh, I love Mach 1s, especially Azure Blue ones. The stance and wheels are awesome and it's very clean looking without the stripes. Great job with the pictures as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great job with the pictures as well. Thank you @SublimeRT. I have always wanted an Azure Blue Mach 1 but unfortunately it hasn't become a reality. The owner just recently purchased the vehicle and is still working on getting it to his liking. I believe he's going to be replacing the stripes at some point. Thank you for the reply and the compliment!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95riosnake Posted June 2, 2014 Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 Azure Blue is one of the best colors Ford has ever put on a mustang IMO. Love it! And the stripe delete on the hood was a good call also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the stripe delete on the hood was a good call also I fully agree with you about the Azure Blue.

Brian Posted June 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 lets do it...lets steal it man i dont know what you do or use when taking pics but those are EXTREMELY clean images. care to share you technique there? Man I would in a heart beat but the guy needs to replace the clutch cable assembly first. That was the hardest clutch pedal I've ever felt. Honestly, it's all about practice. I still make hundreds of rookie mistakes and try to save myself in Lightroom. I took a lot more shots than I posted. I try different apertures and shutter speeds until I get what I want then I move to the next angle/shot. I usually walk around the car and look for shots that I find interesting and also ask what the client wants. The main thing is trying to make sure everything is in focus the way you want and the lighting is good. Obviously you want to do the best you can with the photo and not have to edit as much but that comes with practice which is currently where I am. As far as settings in the camera it all varies based on lighting conditions, etc as you can imagine. You can check out the metadata on my Flickr account if you really want to see what I used for each shot. My camera is a Canon Rebel XTi which is old at this point so any of the newer cameras can easily achieve everything I have been able to. I still have a lot to learn until I'm anywhere near people like Mooch, etc. There are a lot of really great books out there that can teach you and as boring as it is reading the manual for the camera does make a different in understanding the settings. I didn't do it and it's bit me in the rear more than once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that's the correct name. He doesn't post as often but we talk on Instagram still. Basically any quality DSLR from Canon or Nikon can get you those results. There are other camera brand names that are nice too but Canon/Nikon are the two I'd recommend. Then it's all about getting out there to practice so you don't have to edit all day, lol.
