Hi bloggers! JayMan has done it again. We have shot our first athlete today and he was a great model. Hailing from Nigeria standing at 6'7" tall and weighing 225lbs is Mr. Henry O. Olawoye. We want to take the time to introduce you all to this young man, who is an old friend and colleague of JayMan's Photographer Jesse Stewart. Henry resides and teaches in Rhode Island and he is also a basketball coach.

Henry loves the sport of basketball, and has dreams of making it his main career. He graduated from the University of Delaware in 2008 with a degree in Education. However he is in preparation for playing professional basketball overseas, but we want to tell you all if you love basketball, no matter what country it's played in you better keep your eyes open for this young man because he is gonna make his mark. Yet, who knows, Henry may return to the States and play for one of our NBA teams, he would truly love to play for the Orlando Magic.

JAYMAN'S 1ST RECORDING ARTIST: A-DUBB

JayMan has done it again! We have shot our first recording artist and he calls himself A-dubb. A-dubb has been singing for about 14 years, and wants nothing more than to establish himself as a true recording artist. He contacted JayMan via facebook and knows that you must have the right marketing in place to be taken seriously in this business. Since he is an old friend of JayMan's Marketing Advisor, it was a no brainer that he would shoot with us.

A-dubb has a very nice voice. He provided us with samples of his music as he arrived on the shoot. We created some really nice looks for him, and he had a great time shooting with us.

Look out for this man because he is on the rise and JayMan will do all we can to help him reach his goal. You can check out A-dubb via these websites www.youtube.com/adubb and www.myspace.com/adubbproductions.

Meet Rob "The Lion" Stewart our newest Model!

Hello Bloggers I want to take the time to introduce you all to an up and coming model from Delaware by the name of Rob "The Lion" Stewart. While JayMan was looking to shoot a fitness model to add to our portfolio, we came across Rob's images on a networking site. Rob was just the guy that we were looking for. Come to find out that he is new to modeling and is really looking to get his portfolio started and network with photographers, casting directors and all those in the industry he can to help his career take off. Well of course JayMan had to take part in that, we love to give people their chance at model success.

Rob was comfortable with the suggestions that we made for him. Since he is an athletic guy with a muscular build we wanted to give him a range of looks that would showcase his versatility as a model. He trully has the potential to make it as a fitness, runway, and print model. once the shoot was underway Rob started taking care of business, and starting commanding his presence in front of the camera. He even gave us some suggestions and ideas of what he was looking for in his shoot.

Welcome to the modeling industry Rob Stewart and thank you for allowing JayMan Photography to add some additional images to your portfolio. We wish you much succes in the future and we will surely keep our eyes open to see you do great
things.

MEET HAZMAT ENTERTAINMENT

Hello blogger friends, JayMan has returned with our latest photoshoot. We have met with a up and coming entertainment company by the name of HAZMAT ENTERTAINMENT. The executive producer by the name of Miranda (as an artist she goes by the name of Goddess) has helped to start a company with some local talent, a group of young men that she believes has something to express and share with the rest of the world.

After meeting with them on the day of the shoot we have come to see that these individuals believe that they have something to share with everyone, and JayMan believes that they have something to share as well. They have a long way to go and lots of work ahead and we are also glad that JayMan was able to provide them with their first of many photoshoots.

The evolution of the sneaker pt 4

Alright bloggers we are back with the next installment in the evolution of the sneaker. We have been so very busy with work and other shoots that we just havent been able to post a new blog for all of you. Well I an making time for our followers. If you havent purchased the Details Men's Style Manual you better go get it. Fellas and yes you ladies that want to help their guys change there style alot or just a little, you all need to get this book, it is a great help.

1985: Nike signs Michael Jordan to an endorsement deal. That same year the first pair of Jordans are released, the beginning of a series that is still being issued.

1986: RUN DMC releases the album Raising Hell, which features the song "My Adidas" Darryl "DMC" McDaniels often wore his Adidas without laces and with the tongues flapping. This begins a symbiotic relationship between hip-hop music and footwear.

1991: Dee Brown bends down to pump up his Reebok Pump shoes before performing his winning "no-look" dunk during the NBA All Star Slam Dunk Contest.

People do you see just how much history has been influenced by footwear. Many of us may not realize how something so necessary as the shoes that we put on our feet can change the way we live our life, wear our clothes and listen to our music.

Photoshoot winner Mairssa

Hey bloggers, I hope that all is well. It's been a few days since I have updated the blog with what has been going on with the men of JayMan Photography and other topics of interest. Well here's an up date. Both of us are extreme busy working our buts off with the business and other tasks at hand. We are each in graduate school obtaining our masters degrees (yea lots of work lol). And to add it we each have full time jobs. but the main topic is our photoshoot winner Marissa. Back in late February, JayMan Photography donated a photoshoot to help raise money for the Amina Scholarship Fund, a charity that helps youth in the city of Chester, PA pay for college. This young lady by the name of Marissa approached both Jesse and myself (Jay) and said that she bought numerous raffle tickets because she wanted to win this photoshoot. Little did we know that our shoot sparked a frienzy amongst everyone in the party that night. Apparantly, many people wanted to win that shoot.

But with the luck of the draw Marissa was declared the winner. We schedule the shoot about a month in advance to have time to prepare and to insure that we didn't over book ourselves along with the other 1 million tasks that we each had to complete. On sunday April 5th, Marissa Arrived for her shoot. She started out shy at first, but we try to make everyone comfortable and have fun and she soon relaxed and had a good time. I must say that we have created some really amazing images of this young lady and I know that she will like them very much. Bloggers you all will get to see the finished product right here. Just as we did with Chrissy, we have made a video of Marissa's shoot also. Check it out and tell us what you think.
