Creating Stock Photos of Trucks

The action and excitement of the St. Clair River Classic Offshore Race were captured in dazzling color by photographer Michael Alan Petrick in St. Clair , MI in July. The race was won by Wildcard, a boat sponsored by The Genpro Companies, a transportation intermediary headquartered in Newark , NJ . Petrick's photos now appear on the website of the Offshore Super Series Powerboat Racing Association (OSS). The winning photo also appears in the Genpro company newsletter.

Petrick is now compiling photos of trucks and trailers – vans, reefers, flatbeds and containers, for a collection of trucking stock photos to be unveiled in 2006.

“We see a distinct need for good, full color trucking photos in attractive, dramatic and colorful settings,” stated Petrick. “Our goal is to present new photos to the marketplace, at prices that make them accessible for marketing purposes.”

He also photographs dispatching teams and personnel working on phones and computers.

The 38 year old computer engineering specialist has been taking action photos and river shots since moving to Fort Gratiot , Michigan last year. Previously, he worked on sports photography, team shots and family photos for weddings, reunions and genealogy. He also photographs events such as conventions, seminars and business activities.

Petrick is available for weekend shooting assignments onsite through the U.S. and Canada . He is also accepting requests for the types of stock photography preferred by transportation intermediaries.
