G'day
My most recent photoshoot was my first paid one, so for this I got up super early (5am) to start the shoot at 6am, to make the most of light, I also spent 1/4 of a day location hunting for dirty, closed in spaces, as the owner requested.

Here is the result...I decided to add in a bit of a orange filter to all the photos, as it brought out th custom purple paint more, and gave it that American feel.

Comments, and critiques more than welcome.

here is the link to all 20 photographs:

Nice shots, try to pay attention to the background though. I think you put the car too close to the building in the 3rd shot, if it was further away from the building, that picture would have possibly been perfect.

Also another common mistake alot of people make is the trees, light poles, sign posts and etc... In the last picture you have posted the picture doesnt' seem to have the right depth of field, so the tree seems like it is growing from the roof of the car. A little shallower depth of field would have separated the car from the background.

I really like the second picture, but the garbage bin thats on the right just kills the picture, and also using a polarizing filter and gettin rid of the reflections on the rear windshield would have been an improvement on the pictures.

I hope you take these as a constructive critism and not get offended.
