Jimmy Gekas Photography - Solana Beach, California USA

Sports photography is still a big part of my life. I started a local youth sports photography business called Sideline Studios back in the fall of 2003 with a friend of mine, Jason Buscema. We now have two more photographers shooting for us and we can be found at almost every high school in the San Diego area. I also have been the official athletic team photographer for all of UCSD for the past three years. Landscape photography is a creative escape for me when volleyball life has me boxed in. I think the two work well together to keep me balanced, while the sports photography is a fun way to do both at once... catching the peak action, while creating a story and compositions.
