"Growing up in Farmville, western Massachusetts, I was captivated by the allure of the West Coast through Baywatch, David Lee Roth's Venice Beach escapades on MTV, and iconic surfing movies like Point Break. These glimpses into California life sparked my longing to experience it firsthand.

Today, I'm living my dream as a photographer, fully immersed in the Southern California lifestyle. From collaborating with iconic brands like Airwalk and Vision Streetwear to capturing the vibrant essence of California's sun-drenched beaches and bustling streets, every moment here fuels my creative passion.

This journey has been a testament to the irresistible charm of California, a place that continues to inspire and invigorate my work every day."

From the age of 17, Jesse Rieser began looking through a lens, making portraits filled with telling details and compelling characters. He quickly became recognised for not only his success with commercial clients but also in the fine art world. His work inspires engagement, drawing in the viewer, causing them to wonder about the subjects and the stories they have to tell.

With over 40 exhibitions, Rieser continues to find ways of injecting art into his advertising photography. Here we see work from his personal practice paired with client commissions for Adobe, adidas, Arizona Office of Tourism, AT&T, E*Trade and The Lottery.

Clients find him as a creative additive to the collaborative process not only with his technical expertise but also in the ideation phase. He feels his greatest currency is how he communicates and sees the world. Some call it empathy. Some call it charm. His mom just says he’s a nice young man.

"Portraits are among my favorite images to make because it gives me the opportunity to integrate my love of the specific character of 'environments' with the people that tread within them.

Integration is the yeast in that marriage because I never just leave leftover space or a banal background beyond my person subjects. In my work, environment gives shape to the human subject as human subject gives shape to the environment. It’s a three dimensional compositional puzzle that is enhanced by color, light and most importantly… gesture. Gesture is the intangible and unpredictable signature in the shape and movement of the things and people that I look to capture. The process creates a compelling portrait that asks questions of the viewer and engages their attention on a deep level.

Portraying the powerful state of 'just being'."
