My name is Jamie Ballenger.
I was born and raised in Lahaina Maui, Hawaii and began surfing at age 8, I always loved surfing Magazines and was amazed at the water shots these guys got! I don't consider myself a pro at picture taking or how a camera works. I don't understand what aperture means or what ISO I should be in. I had a friend yrs ago "Mark Burkowitz" show me what he thought was the best setting for my camera . I think my shots are pretty good because I'm a pretty good surfer! Or was pretty good! LOL! Therefore I must have pretty good timing. Plus these days you can take a million shots of the same thing and then go home and pick the best shot of that single wave! I have had 4 cover shots over the yrs in some pretty big surf mags! I have also been ripped off big time by magazines ! Mostly" Longboard magazine" ! Bottom line is I love to take pictures. I was getting way to upset surfing these days with the crowds and found that swimming in the line up with camera in hand and getting in the tube with the surfer was really awesome! I hope you like the pictures I have taken! You can check out some of my Better Shots Here
MAHALO!  J/B

The waves are small but fun this killer Monday morning! Courts and Bowls look to be knee to sometimes shouder high with a light crowd! The winds are off shore and the sun out and shinny! The Duke fest from my stand point was a totall success! The waves have never been better for a surf meet at Queens and it was so consistent that everyone got tons of waves! The web cast was off Da hook with Rocky Cannon and his crew doing a totally professional job! It was killer! I would go home a little early after each day and just turn the T.V on and watch the rest of the heats in H.D ! Sick! I saw all my friends and it felt Sooooo good to be home! Next up is the nose riding contest which will be is Sep and I'll have the entry forms on site today!  Stay tuned! LATS#%^$#%^#^%#%^  J/B

Below-Allot of people say ..Jamie your shots look really good...Duh! With out this crew of surfers below My shots would be average at best! There's a few guys missing from this Bowls line up, but I'd say these guys have helped make me look good! Guy Hagi has been huge in my success in getting everyone of the boys on T.V Just about every night  in the summer after a good surf session at Bowls!    BIG MAHALOS TO DA BOWLS CREW!
