Join up on a forum for photo geeks, get to know their world and how the food chain works, then go hunting with a killer resume. Try as many different styles as you can think of for taking pictures of cars; high, low, parked, at speed, color scheme changes - effect of the whole picture versus photoshopping only the color of a car or set of wheel. I think you get the drift (that's another one you can take shots of !). Alot of people think they can take photos and they are right, but they are also so wrong if they think they can take good photos.
I have a buddy who shot my wedding photos and has since upgraded his Digital camera and acquired some serious lense extensions (don't read too much into that) and similar equipment to keep him in the game as it were, but he's never dabbled much in the automotive field before. Photography is photography no matter what you are doing, so there are a lot of universals and such, but it never hurts to see what one guys experience has been within the wedding photo industry (local to Ottawa mainly). I'm sure if I got you his contact information and if you could let him know what you are thinking of pursuing, he could give you some more ideas. It's the least I could do, and as always it never hurts to ask!
I'm sure if nothing else, you guys can get lost in the technical details of all the newest tech gear, because both he and his fraternal (is that the not identical?) twin are online editors and with both having University education in both English and History, the details will be the least of your worries.
Want me to do some poking around? Shoot me a PM.
