Jeff recently finished a couple of integrated stills & video productions. First up was for Lincoln, and their new Nautilus. The shoot started in the cold, dark early morning in the California desert, to catch the colors of the sunrise. The team spent the day covering a whole lot of stills, before heading back to LA for two days of integrated shooting. With two shoot vehicles, Jeff was able to efficiently split his time between directing the video, and capturing still images on a second set.

When Jeff came across this amazing tent structure, built in So Cal’s Santa Monica Mountains, he immediately started preparing for a personal shoot. Adding in a beautiful BMW, talent, styling, plus horses, and it wasn’t too tough to create stunning images. Jeff takes a more loose approach to a personal project, shooting hand-held alongside his DP, Chad Huff.

Based in Los Angeles, Jeff has shot automotive projects around the world for over 15 years.
