I really only shot with my 50mm 1.4 for the car show portion of the day. I will have more action photos up probably at the beginning of next week. I have many more obligations ahead of me this weekend.

I also took a few shots in the parking lot as well.. haha!

Stopped at the Purple Hotel in Lincolnwood last fall and took a quick 9 photo pan / Brenzier of my car. Shot with the Canon 24mm 1.4 L.

1950 Jaguar XK-120 Alloy Body

Teddy Pieper — Sat, 03 Mar 2012 06:30:50 +0000

This was one difficult shoot! The car had it’s gas tank removed for repairs at the time of the shoot so we were really only able to roll it right outside of the garage. Reflections where bad and the space was tight. I was able to over come the obstacles and come out with a few very worthy shots.

The body lines on this XK-120 are beautiful! The last photo on this post really shows it off!

1933 Dietrich Lincoln Convertible Limo

Teddy Pieper — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 04:17:11 +0000

Back at the end of 2011 I was fortunate enough to shoot this beautiful 1933 Lincoln. And for it being in the middle of winter I really lucked out with the weather. It was a pretty icy drive up to the location but the sun had melted everything away by the time I got there. It was a big location so I was able to get way back and shoot pretty long with an 70mm – 200m 2.8 L IS. Had a good time shooting this car and hope that I get to shoot more like it in the future.

If you are interested in having your car shot and live in the Chicagoland area, contact me from my contact page at the top or at 574-518-2085. My rates are reasonable and I can offer a coffee table album of your car!

1957 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Convertible Photoshoot

Teddy Pieper — Mon, 09 Jan 2012 07:14:06 +0000

This was my first shoot for RM Auctions. They needed some shots of a 1957 Cadillac Eldorado that The Last Detail was sending down to the Arizona auction. The Last Detail is not to far from a spot I knew of in Mundelein, so we took the short drive over to get some great shots. I feel it all worked out very well for being in the middle of winter and shooting a convertible!

Lincoln Park Zoo Christmas Lights

Teddy Pieper — Sat, 24 Dec 2011 04:17:40 +0000

Went down to the Lincoln Park Zoo during a meetup for The Chicagoland Digital Photography group. I didn’t really “meetup” with anyone, I wish I did, there was just so many people and I didn’t see anyone stick out that they were for the meetup. I did get a few shots though!

The last one here of Laura, was 46 Photos stitched together “Brenzier” style

Just Some Jellyfish

Went to the Shedd Aquarium last Sunday. Got a few snaps from one of the Jellyfish tanks in the tiny Jellies exhibit. Was really hoping for more..

Mid-Ohio ALMS

Teddy Pieper — Fri, 09 Dec 2011 07:28:14 +0000

A little over a year ago I went out to Mid-Ohio with Jason and his dad. I just got around to editing some of my favorite shots. There are so many that I wanted to put up but I just dont have the time to edit all of them at once. Maybe we’ll call this part one someday and I’ll put up some more.

DJ Tanner | Hemstreet | Vaski @ Birdy’s Live Indianapolis

Teddy Pieper — Thu, 03 Nov 2011 05:10:23 +0000

On October 22nd DJ Tanner opened up for Vaski at Birdy’s Live in Indianapolis. I have done a lot of work with DJ Tanner including promoting, photos, flyers and the Charlie Says Get Down site where we blog about music and all the events that go on. So me and my Girlfriend, Laura, get in the car and head down to one of his bigger events (not the biggest turn out) he has DJ’d at. Below you can find a few of my favorites. My flash was not working correctly so I shot mainly high ISO. If you want to view all 100+ shots then go over to the Charlie Says Get Down post.

Samantha | Senior Session

Teddy Pieper — Fri, 01 Jul 2011 00:27:14 +0000

In this early morning session we caught some beautiful sun coming up over Lake Tippecanoe. I took us to a beach that I knew at Patona Bay which positioned us to where the sun would come up on the opposite side of the lake. I shot toward the sunrise and played with the sun reflecting off the water a lot and I captured amazing sun washouts as I would like in some of the photos. My favorite being the Portrait where she is standing holding onto a wire of a sailboat and kind of leaning out, second row down on the right. Thank you to Evan her boyfriend for being there to hold the reflector for me and for volunteering his Motorcycle for some shots.
