Portraits of Indycar Driver Dan Wheldon. Sonoma Raceway

Below are portraits of two time Indianapolis 500 winner Dan Wheldon (2005, 2011) shot at Sonoma Raceway in Sonoma, CA. Mr. Wheldon is an INDYCAR race driver from England who is currently living in Florida, and driving for the team of Bryan Herta Autosport (owned by former driver Bryan Herta). These images were shot for Simraceway – a driving school at Sonoma Raceway.

The second image is from a studio set up we built inside a garage bay not far from the racetrack. The coolest thing about shooting the 2x Indy winner was seeing his professionalism on set. He was all business! However once the shoot was wrapped up he was personable, humble, and incredibly thankful. I dig that.
