Before you shoot

Daylight, and a clean car

Park in even daylight. Wash the car. Wet paint, leaf litter, and a dusty sill read as neglect.

Avoid night, underground car parks, and mixed indoor lighting. Shoot the actual car in the condition you will hire it.

Angles

Three-quarter front, interior, seats

If you have room in the six, add a clean side or a rear three-quarter. Do not fill the slots with badge close-ups.

Three-quarter front

The usual first photo. Whole car in frame, standing on its wheels, not a cropped badge or a detail of the grille.

Interior

Dashboard and cabin as a hirer will sit in it. Lights on if the cabin is dark. Do not hide wear with a filter.

Seats

Show how many people actually fit and the condition of the leather or cloth.

Leave it out

No dealer-lot clutter

This is not a stock studio brief. It is the car a hirer will see when they arrive.

Dealer-lot banners, bunting, and other cars crowding the frame
Night shots, underground car parks, and hard on-camera flash
Interior mess, hangers, and personal clutter on the seats
Brochure photos of a similar model you do not own

Honesty

Shoot the listed car

If a panel is marked, do not crop it out and hope. Hirers still deal with you after they enquire. A mismatch between the photos and the car wastes both calendars.
