Douglas Sonders is a celebrated photographer with a list of high profile celebrity and corporate clients that will blow you away. Even more impressive are his amazing photos.
We met Doug in Celebration, Florida during the exotic car festival a few years back, and he had an idea of doing a session with the time machine to create images which could be used to promote our drive to cure Parkinson's.
His busy schedule has him flying all over the world and we figured that if it was meant to be, the opportunity would present itself someday.
Well, on Saturday, June 26th, 2010, it did!
It was more than a six hour shoot, with a location swap in between, and Doug assembled a team of talented folks to help, along with renting generators for the lights, and hauling a huge load of equipment to make the car look it's finest. He arranged the location and contacted a lovely model named Emily, to create a female version of the character 'Marty McFly' from the movie.
To add further excitement, he lined up a professional pyrotechnics guy to set up flame trails behind the time machine.
Keep in mind, these blurry snapshots are from my camera and not Doug's! He's in the editing phase of the shoot and we hope to see the results of his work in the near future.
Our thanks go to Doug and everyone involved who gave of their time and talents for this project.
Here's a LINK to Doug's site, and below is a little behind-the-scenes video I took of the process of Doug capturing the DeLorean time machine in the outer Washington DC area.
