Beginning with the sleek lines of cars such as the Bertone Concept, AUTO PHOTO MANUAL – The Art of Car Photography reflects the changing landscape of cutting-edge car manufacturing, culminating with the self-driving Roborace car. What sets this book – and Redgrove’s photography in general – above the competition is the manner in which he contextualizes the various cars through his imagery.
No less iconic than the featured cars are the vivid and expressive locations used for his photo shoots. Striking modernist architecture accents the car designs while adding narrative context. In this sense, AUTO PHOTO MANUAL – The Art of Car Photography dances the line between technical reproduction and the artistry inherent in Redgrove’s photography.
In addition to dozens of high-quality photographs, AUTO PHOTO MANUAL – The Art of Car Photography is packed with supplementary materials covering the history of vehicle designs, industry professional insights, and behind-the-scenes content of the various productions explored throughout the book.
