Born and raised in Hamilton, New Jersey, Jimmy Giambrone has been working and playing behind the camera since he was 10 years old. He started shooting his friends rollerblading, skateboarding, and riding BMX. Inspired by rollerblading magazines and VHS tapes, he taught himself how to shoot. This, along with Hype William’s music videos of the 90’s helped to influence his love for the art and his own personal style. By high school, Jimmy had compiled a large amount of his own style of work and co-owned a production company that produced and distributed extreme sport DVDs. The recognition and positive response from these videos encouraged him to go to film school. He graduated from Temple University in 2011. In 2008, while majoring in film at Temple he started shooting underground hiphop and art events all over Philadelphia. During this time is when he began to meet and work with recording artists like Freeway, Jakk Frost, Jedi Mind Tricks, and Reef the Lost Cauze. His music videos continued to gain recognition and he’s been working in the industry ever since. He also works as a wedding photographer, does real estate photography/ videos, commercials, fashion photography, and more. For Jimmy, play is just as important as work. He enjoys traveling and shooting landscapes, designing artificial lighting for his portraits, and night photography. He’d like to thank his family and friends for their love and support over the years. Listed below are some notable companies and artists Jimmy has shot for.
