Today on episode number eight, it is with great pleasure that I invite my next guest, Award-winning photographer Jesse Diamond.  He has had multiple photography monographs published and photography exhibitions on coasts from Los Angeles to New York City.

Jesse and I met many years ago at one of our favorite venues, the Palm Springs photo festival and we share a passion for photography. I’m delighted that we have stayed in touch throughout the years. He’s such a warm, genuine and confident guy. It was an honor to invite him to the Leo Burnett agency in Chicago for a private photo review with some of our top Producers and creatives, as I was so impressed by his photography work.

In this episode, we speak about his passion for music, playing the drums, and his eventual discovery of his passion and love for photography during a trip to Africa during his early 30’s.

We talk about, his photography exhibitions as well as his relationships with such inspiring people who have influenced his career and his mentors. 

You will discover, who shot his first photo at six months old, and a hint, it is one of my favorite photographers.  We chat about his mentors, and how the Eyeist platform began for photography reviews.

Jesse talks about his travels and favorite equipment to capture images with.  BTW, I always love touching this brand 

Did you know he performed, with his father Neil Diamond, performing in his early 20’s on his tours, and that he started playing drums at 6 years old? Music is still a big part of his passion and life.

Stay tuned and be inspired by this talented man. Enjoy this episode of “Art Buyer for Hire”.
