About Us

RacingOnTheRocks is the husband and wife photography team of Rick and Teri Carlton.

Our passion for motorsports began several years ago at Pocono Raceway where we experienced a company sponsored employee appreciation day. More than 2000 Sunoco employees caravanned from Philadelphia to Long Pond in two dozen greyhound buses to root for Sterling Marlin, driver of the #94 Sunoco Oldsmobile.

Marlin commented at the time, "I couldn't believe it. They had 22 or 23 busses full of Sunoco employees that pulled into the track and took a lap around the facility before they unloaded and headed for the hospitality tent. They just kept coming through the gate. That was impressive not only to our team but to many other race teams as well."

Our love for photography began as teenagers each with hand-me-down 35mm range finder cameras - Rick with a Kodak Retina IIIc and Teri with a Voigtländer Vito B.

Combining our two passions came naturally.

We also have a large collection of stock photographs from a variety of subjects and events from around the Rocky Mountain region of the American West. If you are looking for a particular photograph from this region, please contact us.
