Blog Post 6
This week my first photographer is John Harrelson. John is an award winning motorsport photographer. He has been in the business of photographing racing for more than 30 years. He started loving racing young at Southside Speedway and Richmond Raceway. He is the official photographer for Richmond Raceway, Darlington Raceway and Homestead Miami Speedway. John was named the Howard O’Reilly Photographer of the Year in 2010, 2013, 2014 and 2017. His images have been in Sports Illustrated, Racer, Autoweek and many more. When I looked up the photos by John, I noticed he did a lot of close up face shots, along with your typical race action shots. I found this to be very helpful since I will need to be all up in peoples faces and business to get the images that I am looking for.
My second photographer is Jon Ferrey. John is an award winning sports photographer based out of Portland Oregon. He travels and photographs for Nike, Adidas and Target. Jon had a series called NASCAR’s Nation of Fans, and it was just the inspiration and style I was looking for heading to the 500!
