Wes Nielsen

Sunshine, cool old cars and asphalt is my kind of day. Hi, my name is Wes and I'm addicted to old automobiles and car shows. Living in Southern California there are cruises or car shows every day of the week. Heck on weekends there can be 20 plus shows and there is so much more. My love for the classic automobile takes me all around SoCal and here at Nostalgia Highway I share that with you.

I GOT TO SEE @keepinitshiney TRUCK ON SATURDAY! AN I GOT TO SEE @keepinitshiney TRUCK ON SATURDAY! AND IT'S AWESOME! There is a post about it on www.nostalgiahighway.com (link in bio) as well as a YouTube video (link in bio). #nostalgiahighway #keepinitshiney #fordaatruck #fordmodela #shineysnotshinytruck
Another fantastic day at a @mitziandco pinup shoot Another fantastic day at a @mitziandco pinup shoot. Always a great time with the dynamic duo of @silverscreenvanity for hair and @nikkinapalm for makeup. Got to meet some new girls and see some old friends. The bonus of the day was getting to see and ride in @keepinitshiney just finished #fordaatruck which was at it's very first pinup shoot.

Sunday was a crazy adventure of fast cars, a pinup Sunday was a crazy adventure of fast cars, a pinup model, a photographer, a cool hot rod and a crazy wind/dust storm (my car is so dirty). @mitziandco @deedee.cupcake @sinful_seven_racing and I went out to #elmiragedrylake for some @sctabniofficial #landspeedracing and for Mitzi to do a photoshoot with DeeDee as the pinup and Phillip's 5 window coupe. The wind did not cooperate which kicked up tons of dust so we headed out. At one point it was so bad on the lake I could barely see past the end of my hood and it's short ('06 Scion xB). We made it out and found a cool location for the shoot. It was an all around fun day even with the crazy wind. Also, got to see my buddy @thebettyhunter 2 days in a row as a bonus. #nostalgiahighway
So I don't normally shoot models. It's candids at So I don't normally shoot models. It's candids at events and bts when I'm with my friend @mitziandco for her photoshoots. Of course I shoot a lot of cool cars too. Not that I can't do it but it gives me anxiety. That's because I see some colors, red-green, differently as I have a form of color blindness called deuteranopia (damn big science word) which is the most common type. One of my goals for 2021 was to try and shoot more people and to hopefully move on to models in the future. Yesterday at the @theadmorg Grand Re-Opening my friend @pinupterrajxn was there and asked if I would take pictures of her and I did (nervously). Thank you for the patience and being the first model I have ever shot. These are some quick edits from yesterday. THANKS AGAIN @pinupterrajxn
The @theadmorg Grand Re-Opening brought out so man The @theadmorg Grand Re-Opening brought out so many friends, some I haven't seen in a long time. Such a fantastic time with cars, bands and a @mitziandco Pinup Contest. #nostalgiahighway #mitziandco #pinupcontest #automobiledrivingmuseum
The @theadmorg Grand Re-Opening was huge and aweso The @theadmorg Grand Re-Opening was huge and awesome much like the giant VW Bug in the first pick. So great to see friends and some very cool cars. #nostalgiahighway #automobiledrivingmuseum
