Ya’ll… this is so special, I’ve cried multiple times over it.
This was Dwight’s truck.
My good friend and stellar photographer, Ted Linczak, came up from South Carolina to photograph it with a new technique; light-painting. He did this in the dark a few months ago on top of a hill on the farm where Dwight’s mother was raised.
Dwight’s dad purchased the truck new in 1988 and put 24k miles on it before he passed in 2013. Dwight inherited it and drove it until 2019. I gifted the truck to his good friend, Bryon Bradshaw, who will be taking it to Missouri in a few weeks, where he’s moving.
The family is very sentimental about this truck, so having it’s portrait made before it was gone was very meaningful.
Yes, I said “portrait”.
