| Sams Club & Master Card |
|
BA-Reps(www.ba-reps.com) /Jerome Ferraro (jeromepix.com) is an amazing photographer to work with , and she made this shoot all come together visually,
in both Miami and NYC.
|
 |
 |
 |
| On location in Ft Lauderdale, we pulled together a perfect location, fun models and Sams Club's well known super globe. Location wise, homeowners associations can be tricky! But it all worked out great. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| Back in Brooklyn, we found this great looking kid , and transformed Brooklyn Studios into a bath/living room, hanging this huge TV up on a wall with a rig system out their window. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Another shot from the campaign, we found this great looking guy to set up in front of released row houses. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| Back in NY, we rented this huge home on a terribly rainy night in NJ. This stair case helped frame this shot & hot dog griller. |

| SaatchiX & Walmart apparel shoots |
| BA's (www.ba-reps.com) Matt Hranek & I took on this quarterly shoot, working with 35 + people per day, 2 mohos, 8 vans, endless personal cars, 15 locations in LA over 15 shoot days (Below), 4-6 models per day. |
 |
 |
 |
| Early call times in LA to avoid traffic, enjoy best sun. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| By early morning each day, we were fully unloaded. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Parking was an immense part of job, getting 2 mohos, 8 vans, props, wardrobe, tents, catering, personal cars, and golf carts, all in. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| Although we mostly shot at houses and Balboa park, we did make it to one beach house that had a 50 ft drop from their front lawn. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Luckily there was a tram to help out as we brought down our own boulders, grasses and logs - for set design. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| Crafty was a huge part of our days, not only supplying breakfast, but also smoothies, special coffees, vitamins, energy drinks and so on. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Golf carts really helped out at the park locations as people movers and equipment carriers. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| Of all the motorhome drivers, Calvin! is the most amazing guy - always ask for him through Quixote. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Matty is really a great friend and amazing photographer. |
|
|
 |
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Many houses and location searches later, we ended up at some of the finest places. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| Plenty of fun after shoots. |

| SaatchiX / Walmart and Lake Tahoe |
| This shoot was our fist job with Saatchi. We jumped in and found out how much we loved working with this crew and agency. Tahoe was not an ideal production location, but the locations were amazing. And the weather was great. Most crew came from SF, LA and NY. |
 |
 |
 |
| Working with Matt is a blast. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| The Hyatt in Incline Village, really fun. |

| Target Back to School Catalog |
| We helped manage 500 + products arrive LA using a local warehousing company. Target's agency, Wieden & Kennedy helped oversee the product inventory. We received, logged in, organized and drove all to Quixote, then returned all, over the 3 months. We took over Quixote for a month, then finished up at 5th and Sunset for additional shooting. 3 studios going full time, 3 photographers and a lot of products. |
 |
 |
 |
| 6 sets built over 3 shoot days. Each time one was shot, the set flopped itself to become a different set. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| The sets were pretty elaborate, needing to incorporate specific items and colors, and multiple designers working on ideas. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Quixote transformed from raw space to a set shop and prop storage facility. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| The idea of a gigantic pillow consuming a room, offerd a warm resting place. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
| We couldnt receive all the equipment actually requested by the designer, but it still looked cool. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| The crew and photographers got along great, Hollar! , thanks you guys, for playing nice. |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
| After the elaborate set shooting was done, it was back to more simplistic product shot o white. It looks easier than it is!This lasted weeks with 3 photographers / Zack Scott & Reimers + Hollar |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| A basic transition to one set up sort of looked like, using target products on a custom made acrylic white flooring. We had one photographer shooting sets like this, then 2 still life/ product photographers at another studio. |
