Ok guys I'm setting up a photoshoot for my 65 T-bird in the next couple weeks so I can start getting pics out to some of the magazine editors I know. I'm looking for suggestions on places in Central Jersey that may be good backdrops. The car is turquoise with a white top so I'm thinking someplace bright....no industrial settings for this one. A place without much going on in the background to draw the eye away from the car.

Let's hear the suggestions!

Maybe somewhere near Round Valley Reservoir on a sunny day?

I don't know of any particular area in Central, but I am thinking maybe something with a Farm Field background or maybe some kinda huge grassy field with some trees... who knows my creative skills aren't the best.

It's not central, but what about Chatterbox drive in? 50s/60s style drive in restaurant in Sussex County where RT. 15 meets 206.

Princeton Airport, right down route 206 from you.

Colonial Park, a minute past Millstone bridge / Fire department, going east on 514

Dukes Estate / Duke Island Park / Roycefield Road / River Road, Hillsborough. Just pull off the side of the road and use the wooded fields for backdrop.

Hillsborough police department parking lot! LOL

there are some nice shots in piscataway/middlesex area....also some really good shots near the water at sandy hook. thats my favorite spot.

I second that. It will give it that 50's/60's feel.

seaside park, bay side, right around sunset (7:00-7:30) - you can catch some awesome colors of the sun and it bouncing off the water. get the right angle and all you see is horizon. i was going to say seaside heights with the ferris wheel in the background, but i don't know the optimal location for such a shot.

If not Chatterbox then I'd suggest some sort of beach setting on a very sunny day
