Wayne Carini says ”All of your images bring out shapes in cars I have not seen before.” I always look to present those lines in a different light. It is here that I sculpt out with my lighting the lines of the car's designer. There is something special about the days when I am alone with the car in the dark, with just my camera and my lights. They range from hearing the history and stories of a car while it has been in the present owners care, to presenting a completed commission to a client. That is what I love about the creative process.Ī day can range from viewing a private collection to working on my computer doing post-production work from a past commission. The process is continual, where it leads me I really can not say.”īP: “There really is not a typical day. Regardless of how skilled or accomplished an artist is, there is always something new to discover. SC: “And how do you want to develop it further?”īP: “I am always exploring and experimenting.

I learned how to create what I saw in my mind's eye and produce that image on film.” I was taught a strong foundation of the photographic process, of how light worked with film and photographic paper. After high school, I was accepted into the Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara, CA. I set up a darkroom in our basement and started developing film and making prints. SC: “Did you start photographing in your youth already?”īP: “I developed a love for photography in high school.

He gives us (and you) a little insight into his work and also announces his first book. To introduce Bill Pack to you, we did a short interview. It's more like painting than normal photography – a process of layering and sculpting with light that enhances a car's shape and lines, makes details pop against the blackest of shadows and reveals the design intent and emotion behind each classic car's form. It is a technique in which illumination is applied to a subject by moving a light source over its surface while taking a long-exposure image. He calls it 'Painting with Light' and got international recognition for this.

Today we would like to introduce to you Bill Pack, a reknown car-photographer from the US with a very nice skill of showing shapes and design in his pictures. These are used for articles in our online magazine, so you are able to participate.
