About Chazz & Nikki
Who we are
I’m Chazz — photographer, car enthusiast, and founder of TheChazz.com. What began as a side project to share my love of cars and imagery is now a full-time pursuit blending automotive artistry with lifestyle storytelling. Nikki is my cinematographer and partner, bringing each shoot to life with behind-the-scenes film work.
Our origins
TheChazz started with a simple idea: capture the feeling of being there. Early shoots were raw and scrappy, made with whatever gear I could find. Over time I refined the style, upgraded equipment, and learned to balance the sculpture of the car with the personality of the people around it.
Influences
My dad’s classic-car restorations taught me craft and patience.
My mom’s draftsman eye trained me to see light, lines, and form.
Nikki’s film background turns shoots into experiences — not just images.
What drives us
Every shoot is a collaboration — models, car owners, venues, sometimes full crews. We’ve worked rooftops at sunrise, backroads at golden hour, and under the lights of meets and shows across the country.
Gratitude
Friends who lent us cars, family who backed late-night edits, models and clients who trusted our vision, and creatives who shared knowledge — you’ve shaped TheChazz as much as we have. Thank you for the time, trust, and energy you’ve given.
Our philosophy
Set ambitious goals, push your limits, and never stop learning. Respect the craft, respect the people, and value every connection made along the way.
