Vehicle Photography Guide

With A Focus On 'Framing'

These shots are designed to show the majority of the vehicle's exterior - offering potential buyers a 360° view. Try to find a location with plenty of space, ensuring no other vehicles or visual distractions are in shot. Wherever possible avoid any reflections - particularly on areas of paintwork.

  • Stand back – ensuring the entire vehicle is in shot
  • Balance spacing around the vehicle - ensuring it is central within the shot
  • Try to get shots from either side to match as closely as possible - mirrored images work best

Whatever type of wheel your car has, making sure they shine is a must when preparing to sell your car. Not only will they make the car look far more appealing, but dirty wheels can hide all sorts of damage - putting potential buyers off.

  • Centralise the wheel within frame
  • Stand far enough back to include the whole tyre
  • If possible, ensure badges are correct way up

Interior Shots - With A Focus On Detail

These shots aim to show both the quality and condition of the interior. Ensure carpets have been vacuumed and all surfaces wiped down. Shut all doors and windows appearing in shot. The glove compartment and any other storage should also remain shut.

  • Crop tight – ensure no external details are in shot
  • Remove any personal belongings from the car
  • Try to get shots from either side to match as closely as possible - mirrored images work best
