So he's going to provide the car for free at a gig? That might be interesting...

To be honest he doesn't need a Wedding Photographer to do this shoot in fact he needs a PRODUCT GUY who has a full commercial light set up, hell the bride and groom are just set dressing since he is selling the car service.

Now his Market is WEDDINGS but this shoot can be handled by all kinds of photographers and not just weddings.

I would actually go to some location like the Mansion on Turtle Creek or another high end Motel like the W and have the B+G by the car with the limo driver in full regalia. To do this right you need a shooter and a couple assistants to handle reflectors/lights etc to properly light the product.

Maybe a team effort of some DFW TPFers with a melding of equipment and skills and a fairly even breakdown of the commision for the job?

The commission is the use of the car for free at a wedding. How do you break that down? I guess that why he is going after wedding photographrs and their clients.

while that's one point of view, he's marketing TO WEDDING people... people who are getting married. i'd think a wedding photographer could do a pretty good job of appealing to that crowd ;)
