In a world where automotive photography often sticks to the script, Anatol Gottfried writes his own. Always on the move - based between Berlin, Barcelona and Cape Town, Anatol is a visual storyteller whose lens captures more than just machines—it captures motion, meaning, and mood. His work fuses the raw appeal of the automobile with elements of lifestyle, design, and place, creating narratives that are as emotionally resonant as they are technically refined.
From creating a desert landscape for Toyota using Gybow’s innovative light projection, to exploring unexpected settings for Audi under the 'Think differently' mantra, Anatol brings a fresh perspective to the visual language of mobility. Whether he’s highlighting the intersection of design and urban flow on the streets of Barcelona for Ebro, or crafting surreal visions of an Alpine vehicle placed on a volcano, wrapped in glass and clouds, his imagery invites us to experience the automobile in a new light.
His signature style—bold yet meticulous, dynamic yet composed—breathes life into metal and motion. Every frame is carefully constructed, but never rigid; every image suggests a story still unfolding. With cinematic lighting, unconventional framing, and always a subtle human element, Anatol challenges how we see cars—and the world they move through.
His clients seek him out not just for images, but for impact. Because Anatol doesn’t just photograph cars. He photographs possibility. For more work check his website and follow him on Instagram.

"Hard work, good times."
Jeff Ludes has been keeping busy with a mix of personal work and work-work.
First up, Jeff sought out one of the late-90's greats, the Isuzu VehiCROSS. He found a pristine example, serendipitously located in rugged Idaho, and set off to create a series, just for fun.
Jeff’s next personal project was a collaboration with fellow Fox Creative photographer Aaron Smith, known for his sports and lifestyle images. The two teamed up, to realise Aaron's concept of two girls on the town in a sharp white 80's Mustang. Jeff focused his attention more towards the sheetmetal, and Aaron more on the talent, and in the end, they came away with a very eclectic collection—check Jeff’s site for the whole series.
Lastly, a commissioned project; Jeff got to shoot Honda's new 50th Anniversary edition of their iconic Goldwing motorcycle. Tag-teaming with the video production, Jeff chased the bikes up and down canyon roads, arriving finally in the California desert. Jeff worked through a huge shot list, plus plenty of shots off-script, capturing the feeling and beauty of the ride.
Mark Fagelson has been working on a multitude of exciting and creative projects in both Europe and and the US for both regular and new clients including Bentley, BMW, Jaguar, MINI, Top Gear, Rolls-Royce, and Alpine F1 team.
Highlights have included shooting the stunning 2025 Bentley GT in the frozen Swiss Alps, chasing the Dacia Dakar Rally team across Morocco in a Dacia Duster for Top Gear Magazine, and living the billionaire lifestyle in Ibiza with the exclusive new Rolls-Royce Cullinan Series II.
Back in the Studio a set of images was created to show off the new Satin paint finishes available on the Bentley Bentayga, and on a recent trip to the US a very special 1000 BHP race edition of the Ford Bronco was captured in the scorching Nevada desert leaping 50 feet in the air, before a trip to California to shoot a couple of cars that must remain under wraps for the moment.
