WORK HARD AND BE NICE TO PEOPLE.
It’s our North Star and the foundation for everything we do.
        
        
      
    
    The Why.
We believe that constructive collaboration with great people, working on beautiful campaigns that add to the cultural dialogue, is a gift we never take for granted.
The How.
Thorough planning, thoughtful attention to every detail, and harmonious communication for sure. Caring for our shared planet and giving everyone a shot at breaking into the business – always.
The What.
It’s a point of pride that our crews feel every department is prioritized, and our clients remark how calm and positive our shoots feel in the hands of our seasoned production teams.
The Who.
We’ve worked with so many truly gifted people over the last 20 years, and we’ve faced all the challenges with you – the economy, strikes, the pandemic, AI. It drives us to find ways to be better and reaffirms how much value there is in what we all do, together.

    Our Testimonials
“In all my years working with the incredible Steve Bauerfeind and his amazing Bauie+Rad teammates, I have never found another producer that can compare. Steve sets the bar that high!
I was the Creative Director at GQ for 40 years and used Steve and Bauie+Rad often for big photos shoots. I am currently a freelance creative director in the menswear space, working with high-fashion brands and global companies.
Bauie+Rad’s attention to detail is astounding; they see the big picture and are highly experienced when working with talent. Steve and his team make it all happen with poise, intelligent problem-solving and grace. He is literally the very best producer I have ever worked with.”
— Jim Moore, Creative Director
“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Steve and Tricia from Bauie+Rad for nearly a decade. Our first project together was a complex multi-location shoot that could have easily gone off the rails—but their calm confidence, creative problem-solving, and steady leadership kept everything on track.
Since then, they’ve become my go-to partners—reliable, intuitive, and deeply professional. They anticipate needs before they arise, handle every challenge with grace, and bring out the best in everyone around them.
Bauie+Rad consistently deliver exceptional results and make the process a joy. They’re the kind of collaborators you trust completely and are genuinely grateful to have by your side.”
— Cali Alberico, Founder, All In Represents
“Bauie+Rad are a trusted partner delivering quality production for Rothy's photoshoots, both large and small. Their sustainable approach truly sets them apart and aligns perfectly with Rothy's core values.
Owner Steve Bauerfeind has an exceptional understanding of the client's needs and a remarkable ability to problem-solve even the most complex situations. The Bauie+Rad result is always a seamless photoshoot and outstanding creative outcomes.”
— Ann Slater, Senior Director, Creative Operations Rothy’s
“Having been in this business as long as I have (and knowing how long the folks at Bauie+Rad have been in the business), it’s clear that positive, thoughtful problem-solving is the key to a successful production, and that’s what Bauie+Rad brings to every project.
Experience counts. A lot. And the Bauie+Rad crew are experienced.
Bauie+Rad has produced larger entertainment shoots and smaller editorial shoots for me, from Malibu to Rome…and on every single shoot they are effective, efficient and so wonderful to work with.”
— Art Streiber, Photographer
