INCHES away from race cars in Long Beach // JAMEYPRICEPHOTO

[@jensonbaker7656]

had the opportunity to chat with you at petit Le Mans. REALLY love these long vlog type videos and appreciate the effort you put into them.

[@jameypricephoto]

@jensonbaker7656 thank you so much!

[@stubones]

Super awesome Jamey. Thank you.

[@jameypricephoto]

@@stubones thanks for watching!

[@seanpualic9834]

Great insight into your workday mate. Loved it.

[@jameypricephoto]

@@seanpualic9834 many more videos to come!

[@PhotogPilot]

The Japanese F1 Race at Suzuka also has a similar "Photographer Area Ticket". Prices vary depending which area(s) you want to access, and for how many days.

[@jameypricephoto]

@@PhotogPilot it does. But it’s only a grandstand area I think. This is much much better.

[@Finoid_]

Love these videos, Please post more of these next year 🙏

[@jameypricephoto]

@@Finoid_ more coming soon!

[@seabiscuitf1]

Thanks for the video, love seeing your stuff on IG and Threads. Can't wait for this year's race, see you there!

[@SpiralRider462]

Amazing footage and photos, I truly appreciate all of the effort you put into your vids! That over head shot with the palm tree shadows is epic! I need to add an IMSA race to my bucket list. I wish you and yours a wonderful 2025, Cheers!

[@michaelfoster4514]

Awesome stuff again Jamey. Really like how you bring a feeling of the event into the vlog.

[@jameypricephoto]

@@michaelfoster4514 thank you!!

Road Atlanta has a photo pass for Formula Drift, but it's honestly not worth it since the fences at 10A/10B are so short. Even having media credentials didn't help all that much. Love seeing that the pass at Long Beach looks like a much better deal!

[@Wklambert]

Oh man... Super Photo Pass?! Your vids are inspiring me to step outside of NASCAR w my photos. Lining up for 2025 Sebring. Adding that to the 500 (I'm in FL 😁) that I'll be shooting again. A super photo pass tho, holy crap. I need more tracks in my life. I will be looking this event up. Side note - a migraine at an auto race... I can't think of a worse combination. Your strength and perserverence are incredible.

[@jameypricephoto]

@@Wklambert it’s a pretty good deal that super photo pass. And yes. That was a horrible morning with that headache. We didn’t even show all the misery of that day.

Hey Aloha 🌴 Jaime ' I found your channel today and it rocks! I'm a pro photographer and retired Chef de Cuisine here in Kauai. I do alot of historical to extreme surfing to auto racing we have on the islands,to alot of fun leisure photography of the islands and beautiful ladies 🤙I've worked in some really hot kitchens with alot of fire 🔥 and believe me I know hot and passing out hot ! The same goes at the race tracks as it gets brutal but the good news I wanted to share with you is a few helping secrets is years ago when I was in the merchant marines on big ships I was an engineer in the hotest engine compartments and it was ready available to use salt tablets to retain moisture and it really works and fir relief I use gell raps from bandana's tho neck wraps I throw in the freezer and keep in my mini cooler and what a difference 🥶 it makes for long strenuous days 😀 🏁 🏎 Keep up the epic work 😎 Mahalo Nui Loa 🌴 🍍

[@LiveAlohaOhana]

Ps I use alot of Sigma with my canon ! 150-600 ❤ 70-200 ef sport ❤

[@jameypricephoto]

@@LiveAlohaOhana thanks for the tips! I use a lot of electrolyte packets. And the cool towels too. But great advice!

[@LiveAlohaOhana]

@jameypricephoto Yeap ! Happy new year ! 🌴 Amazon has a good selection. I seen in one of your videos about using mirrorless and it's difficult to tell when you got the shot lol 😆 happens to me also 😅 I use my micro 4/3 for my Cinematography and it's incredibly sharp with my icini and Arix lenses . If I somewhere loud it's difficult cause I end up with so much in editing

[@jdmjimmy_drift]

tracks could really benefit with the super photo pass. Trying to build a portfolio with spectator only access can be very difficult! quality content as usual sir, im already looking forward to the next video.

[@mattorrz759]

Another cracking video Jamey. Have you shot much of Scott McLaughlin? Will you be coming to the 2025 Melbourne F1 GP?

[@jameypricephoto]

@@mattorrz759 thank you so much! Yeah I’ve worked with Scott a bit. I covered Tower Motorsport so worked with him on his couple drives he had with them. He’s a great guy. Unfortunately, as much as I would love to be there for the AusGP, I’m pretty sure it falls on Sebring 12 hour weekend.

[@Sman122]

Just wondering I will be at the Rolex 24 2025 on Saturday and Sunday so I am wondering if we would meet up during the race and you could give me some tips on how to take better photos?

[@jameypricephoto]

@@Sman122 unfortunately during the actual race, I’m slammed. I literally am on duty from pre green flag all the way through the end of the race. HOWEVER, I taught a Rolex 24 workshop with my amazing wizard of a colleague Drew Gibson all about how to make better pictures at Daytona 24. It’s an amazing race for photography!

@@jameypricephoto ok thx

[@SteveMitchell-bt8ez]

I'm new to your channel (great stuff). Do you have a video showing your basic camera setup? such as .....raw/jpeg, mechanical/electronic, manual/any priority mode.

[@jameypricephoto]

@@SteveMitchell-bt8ez I need to do a Gear video. It’s been on my list of things to do.

[@luka.brammy]

Great work Jamey, what focal length are you using for the hairpin closeups?

[@jameypricephoto]

@@luka.brammy 14mm and even that’s not wide enough 😂

[@adr1uno638]

Can't believe Séb won't be in the Cadillac01 anymore 😥

[@jameypricephoto]

@@adr1uno638 much sad

[@Jesus.X]

I prefer the acura grand prix over the las vegas F1 race it just a better event for the fan.

[@jameypricephoto]

@@Jesus.X for sure. It’s much much better access for fans.

[@64viji]

Btw why aren’t you using the new 400mm Z lens?

[@jameypricephoto]

@@64viji because were going back in time. You’ll see it the next event. I only got it in may.

[@DynoTestedMedia]

Do you ever get to Mid-Ohio?

[@jameypricephoto]

@@DynoTestedMedia I’ve been many times. But since imsa stopped going, I don’t go.

[@DynoTestedMedia]

@@jameypricephoto IMSA still races there. Its the first race of our season June 6-8

[@jameypricephoto]

@ not the WeatherTech series though. Which is what people are referring to when they say IMSA. Michelin Pilot Challenge is it’s own thing, just under the umbrella.

[@DynoTestedMedia]

@@jameypricephoto Ahh .. Thanks I am fairly new to motorsports photography ( 2 years ) I shot sports for 18 years and made the jump after my son showed interest in photographing racing after he graduated. I really enjoy your work, I have learned a lot from your videos over the last year or so. Thanks Again !!

[@AcridWater]

Hey, I wanna be a IMSA photographer as my dream job, what was your main lens you used for the track side photos. I have a 24-70mm f2.8 but dont know if that lens has too much zoom. What lens do you recommend for this race? (I have a sony a7 iv) Edit: Did you buy tickets for every single event you went to? (ex. IMSA, Indycar, Super Trucks, SRO)

[@jameypricephoto]

@@AcridWater my long lens is a 400 mm I use a variety of lenses between 14 and 400. I know for this event you do not need to buy separate tickets for each race happening. It’s all under one ticket. And it’s an amazing price.

[@Weyco23]

Road America used to have a super photo pass, it ended a number of years ago. I think it was insurance, or people doing stupid stuff that killed it.

[@jameypricephoto]

@@Weyco23 I have no comments to make about that race track 😂 Long Beach is better in everyway. That is one thing I do know.
