but here are a few. first one i am pretty proud of finding this hard soft natural light. i dig it, the rest are all shot with a signle light and are very easy set ups, fast up and down for the variety.
thanks for checking it out!

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.
fixed it tonight, waves are still up! maybe shoot tomorrow.
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.

had a fun shoot yesterday, despite the lack of sun, no lack of color! i really like these images and especially liked them as squares. one thing that really stands out to me in these images are the natural feel of the images. emily also had some very cool knitted hats and the blankets that were really colorful and cool. emily also gave me one of her custom made camera straps...emily, please comment on the link to the goods.
now the climbing shot of mick was not without a few cat calls from the other side of the beach... which i think mick seemed to enjoy ;-)

when i am producing stock, sometimes finding great models with authentic looks and natural environments is the most challenging part of producing. for my stock and editorial work, a lot of what i shoot is natural scenarios, families, kids and loved ones doing cool stuff. so i have had tons of requests from people to shoot their families...especially this time of the year. so i have a very fun offer to make it happen. too much detail to post on this blog, but if your in san diego/orange county, and your looking for kick ass family pictures with a lifestyle spin, comment on this blog post and include your email and i will send you the offer. availability limited to as much as i can take on so comment fast. bonus points for spreading the word on this to friends!
thanks, jay

We're kind of not your average family- my oldest child has autism- he's almost 9, I have an almost 7 year old daughter and a 2 1/2 year old son. I don't think we're the easiest family to shoot- but we're "real" and would LOVE to get some "real" pictures. Thanks for the opportunity.
