“Jeffrey has a way to make you feel safe and comfortable! There’s simplicity in beauty and that’s what I believe his portraits represent. We walked around neighborhoods by the beach in Ventura and found some adorable hole in the wall spots to shoot and the pictures turned out wonderful. He definitely knows what will bring out the best in his models!”

“Jeffrey is a VERY professional and knowledgeable photographer! Some of my favorite pictures are from his work! I have worked with many photographers in the past but he by far exceeded my expectations with his ability to capture a great image effortlessly. He really has an eye for photography and I plan to use him again in the future for all my photography needs! 10/10 recommend!”

“I started doing photoshoots about August of 2017 and Jeffrey was the first photographer I shot with. He made me so comfortable and at ease, he even brings his own changing tent between outfits — so smart! He also gives great direction so if I’m in a certain pose he knows how to make it look effortless :) Hands down one of my favorites to work with!”

“I had such a wonderful experience doing a photo shoot with Jeffrey! He took such fabulous author headshots for me to use on my book cover, my website, and in promotional materials. I often feel awkward and nervous posing for photographs, but Jeffrey made me feel at ease with his friendly, calm demeanor and expertise. He is very professional and the photos he took were incredible. I smile every time I see them! Thank you, Jeffrey, for sharing your gift of photography with the world.”

“About a month ago I had a shoot with Jeffrey and it was such a pleasure to work with him! He was friendly and most importantly professional at all times. I was very impressed with the quality of his photography and editing! His love for what he does really shows through his photographs. I hope to be shooting with him again soon!”

“Loved shooting with JD. He was quick and efficient. We got so many outfits in such a short amount of time. He had a great eye for slight changes of the background so that all the photos didn’t look the same. 10/10 would work with again!”
— Rachel Clugston
“Jeff is nothing short of amazing to work with! I’ve done a few modeling shoots with him and plan to continue to do so. He is so professional and makes you feel so comfortable. His vision and passion for his craft is inspiring and I’ve worked with hundreds of photographers so to see that is refreshing! I highly recommend Jeff for any type of shoot you’re looking for! It’s truly an honor getting the privilege to work side by side with this professional.”

“Jeff did a newborn shoot for me and he could not have been more professional. My son was only a few weeks old at the time, he peed, pooped, and threw up during the photos. Somehow even with all of this, Jeff was still able to get some amazing photos. We printed some for the nursery, sent out birth announcements, and started off his baby book. All the photos were great quality, and I know my family will treasure them for many years! I would absolutely recommend Jeff for any of your photography needs!”
— Christine Lee Rorabaugh

“Amazing photographer! Very professional and easy going. Provides a pop-up changing station for quick look changes, so you don’t have to awkwardly change in your car or a gross bathroom. Highly, highly recommend! Looking forward to the next shoot. :)”
