Vintage Mustang Photo Shoot at Darby House

Nov 11, 2021

Every now and then we get around to completing a personal project, just for the fun of it! Before selling our classic Ford Mustang Fastback we knew we had to memorialize our time with it and Laura knew exactly how she wanted to do that - a vintage photo shoot.

This gorgeous car was in our family for about 18 years. It's a 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback. When we purchased it there had only been two other previous owners. Unfortunately, circumstances of life got in the way and for many years the car sat in storage, unused.

Recently we had some work done on it, got it back to working in tip-top shape and spent the better portion of this year enjoying it the way it was meant to be enjoyed. Reluctantly, we decided to let it go and it's now found a new home in Massachusetts.

Before letting it go, Laura knew exactly what she wanted to do: play dress up with the car! We got in touch with Often Vintage to find the perfect retro outfit and Darby House for a beautiful location that would make for great photos, but also let Laura and the car take the spotlight.

We love how this shoot turned out and we had fun playing with the concept, while listening to 1960s tunes on our Bluetooth speaker. Let us know what you think down in the comment section below the photo gallery and if you're interested in more content like this check back soon - we did a second photo shoot with just the car that we'll be blogging, as well as a short video.
