Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: I have covered sports, leisure, entertainment, human interest and politics. Some of my favorite assignments were during the early 2000s when California wildfires and mudslides devastated many communities. I had the opportunity to follow firefighters, rescuers and other first responders into the chaos and capture images of these catastrophic events. My other stimulating assignments included entertainment shoots of Eric Clapton, Tina Turner, Los Lobos, etc. I also have a special interest in recording videos of drug cartel and immigration activity in Mexico. I will travel to the Chiapas, Mexico/Guatemala border to record video of individuals hopping "the beast train" in their pursuit of a better life in America.

Jeff took animated & candidate pictures for an event I put on for work. Not only were the photos outstanding, my 200+ guests couldn't stop talking about how professional, kind and dynamic Jeff was at the event. I will definitely be hiring him again. Thanks Jeff, for high-quality pictures and being friendly, accommodating and approachable at the event! http://www.meetup.com/TechinMotionLA/photos/23566392/

Fast and aggressive when shooting hard news. Elaborate and precise for corporate photos, product shots, portraits. Shoots and edits interesting videos. Good with people. Always on time, a dedicated photographer/videographer.

Jeff Grace is a photojournalist that I highly recommend. As a filmmaker, recently shooting my third film in Mexico, I can rapidly tell when a person is professional and when is not, and Jeff showed a great deal of experience and professionalism. Great quality in his work. Definitely, someone that can be trust!!

Jeff was given very specific instructions about how the performances at our event should be shot. He followed none of them. This was a dance show with performances by ages 5 through 85 with large groups on stage at once. You can't see the participants because he decided to film from one side of the stage, rather than where I asked him to, so only half of the dancers are visible. During the finale, he actually got up on stage among the dancers and completely disrupted the dance from an audience perspective. A show this big is performed only once every two or three years. We will have to wait for the next one to get decent footage. I do not recommend Jeff Grace at all on any level.
Jeff Scott Grace, Photojournalist's reply
In response to the review of ms stone , she requested that I take two hours of still photos of the event before the dancers started, I spent a long time carefully composing quality candid photos of all performers getting ready for the event .I was asked to also provide still group photos of all dancers which was not reviewed ,when ms stone requested video of each individual child performer I mentioned for quality sake that each child be videoed separate on stage , since the constant movement of the kids would not allow individual access, there was a time constraint on this situation so I attempted to capture as many individuals as possible since their performance time was one quarter the anount of time the adults danced, there about 20 children on stage , as per ms stone i disrupted the performance i secured verbal permission before performance to shoot video on the stage area
