Photographing a '97 K1500

[Aloicious]

So I got to photograph my friend's '97 truck back in august for a truck spotlight story. It was a blast to shoot, and Im fairly happy with how they turned out, I'm too much of a perfectionist, so there's still things I'd like to change on them, but all due considering, I like them. We got really lucky with the beautiful sky/clouds that day.

He's not a member on the forum here, but I thought y'all would enjoy seeing it: http://www.gmtruckcentral.com/spotlight/whipped383.html

The article has all the info on the truck, but since this is the photo/video section, I'd post up info on my camera rig for the other photography guys like me out there...

Awesome pics and sounds like a great build. I'll have to hunt down the build thread at some point. I really need to do more reading on the 411 swap. That's something I'm definitely wanting to do to my truck

Thanks, guys,

Yenko, the 411 is great if you want to get into tuning. definitely opens up all sorts of doors. I wrote an article all about the swap you can read if you want here: http://www.gmtruckcentral.com/articles/12200411.html

I would love to get some good shots of my truck like this. Alaska is gorgeous, and I can never capture it like it is.
