hi everyone... just posting some pictures of the studio. i was possibly thinking of bringing in another commercial artist to share the space. if you or someone you know if looking for a place in san diego(north county - Oceanside) please send them this link.
its a great work space, have 2 work stations available. graphic designer, video shooter/editor, web designer would be perfect, but i am open to whatever.
ideal person would dig music and hosting events. if your interested, hit me up! jay@jayreilly.com

Hi Jay,
Amazing photos and your space isn't bad either. I was wondering if you could share what company develops your work. And if I had to have one new lens for Christmas what would it be?
thanks!

Mark Leonard:
I can't seem to play the video. Anywhere I click I get redirected to the Corban Productions site where there is another video that has nothing to do with you and photography.

Dennis Axer:
Hi Jay, the video is awsome. Nice shoot. Looks like you were using your 35mm on the 1ds Mk II !? Anyhow, totally rad. We are working on our blog and will send you a link, once its done. Oh and yes, I recognized the back of your head. Looks like you had way too much fun. You must also be in the surfing video they showcase since there are at least 8 guys in the water shooting. Very nice.

You so rocked it out of the house. That natural light shot ROCKS, smokin'. I keep telling myself it is your ocean side diffused light, but I'm starting to think it is just you :)

had some fun shooting alison's family. we shot at one of my favorites beaches, cardiff...and i saw a bunch of people surfing that i knew and wanted to catch up with them afterwards to shoot...waves were up, the sun and light was perfect, water was blue, would have been great, but after 15 mins of duck diving and fighting the waves out, i went to shoot and realized that water was seeping(sounds better than gushing) into my water housing that was holding my canon 1dsm2! OUCH! if that was my 5d, it would be done! i love 1d cameras...super solid.
fixed it tonight, waves are still up! maybe shoot tomorrow.

i guess blond is the dominant gene - haha - great shots - cool family!
(12.08.08 @ 09:34 AM)
Alison:
Love them Jay! So fun to see what someone else sees through the lens. We had a great time with you and we will have to do the surfing shots another time:) Glad to hear your camera survived. We thought something was up after you came in after a few minutes. Glad to hear your equipment was ok and you were able to fix it.

some just for fun. have not been int he water for a while, so after a early morning trip to the airport, thought i would shoot some fun stuff. nothing special and no direction, kinda just fun to do that every now and then.
Mark:
Great stuff Jay. You really need to post up some water shooting tips sometime soon. My 40D and Del Mar housing are ready to go, but try as I might, my stuff is hurtin for certain it seems. :)

The old surfer dude is me, at the Wind n Sea Longboard contest. I would like a copy of this digital shot if possible. I would like to have some photos made for my sons and for our Oceanside Longboard Club wall at our meeting hall.
Thanks....

Hey Jay, I have been very inspired by your work lately so I got some friends together and did a beach/surfer shoot this weekend http://chadjarae.bigfolioblog.com/ . I really enjoy your work and the stories you share on your blog. Thanks
(11.30.08 @ 11:05 AM)

Nice job again and again! Very refreshing!!! Love the previous sessions too!! Keep posting! You're my daily Californian inspiration :) - did a photo session on the beach today and I though "How would mister J.R do it?". I'm getting influenced ;)

Amish:
I've said it before and said it again, if you ever come up the coast to Vancouver BC, gimme a shout. I love your work!!
What are the chances of seeing some behind the scene work? I'm curious how you get such amazingly tack sharp images when your out in the water. Do you have to photoshop water droplets often?
