Good Morning. Selfie 1977 at 22 years old in Cardiff-by-the-Sea, CA. I couldn’t understand why my girlfriend’s father didn’t like me? Yes, I somehow had a girlfriend. #jgrantbrittainphotos #selfie #surfyskatey #cardiffbythesea #70smustache https://www.instagram.com/p/BvW3Lk2HKGN/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1r2c94b7mfyan

@b_ray giving me stink eye😏 at VC Reservoir back in early 1980s. Amazing morning solo session with he and @surfyskatey that ended with a pissed off Sheriff busting us and following us out of the area and then us going back after we lost him. @oldbro4life jgrantbrittainphotos.com #billbilling #vcreservoir #skateboardingisfun #skatephotography #skatingwithfriends #1980sskateboarding #jgrantbrittain #minoltasrt201 #valleycenter https://www.instagram.com/p/CECcCaOls1o/?igshid=39d683fxvpg3

Must have been cold this day at the Del Mar Skate Ranch around 1979, good thing I had my pet caterpillar on my top lip to keep me warm. That’s @kim_cespedes standing in the background and the Keyhole is deckless. 📸 @surfyskatey #kimcespedes #jimalesi #delmarskateranch #moustache #skatephotography #jgrantbrittain https://www.instagram.com/p/B6UYPAclVhN/?igshid=1il0cf5ak8xv7

I am having a Pop-Up Photo Show today until 4pm at @socalskateshop in Mission Viejo. There is also a Best Trick Contest in the parking lot, so come bust moves. At 4pm, we’re going down the street to @highparktaphouse for a Old Bro Hazy Pale Tap Takeover by @duckfootbeer and the @oldbro4life Skate Photo Can Launch. There are 25 cans with @b_ray @surfyskatey and my old photos on them, drinkable and collectible😜 jgrantbrittainphotos.com #socalskateshop #oldbrobeer #duckfootbrewing #craftbeer #sandiegocraftbeer #skatephotography #skateboardingisfun #skateboarding #jgrantbrittainphotos #jgrantbrittain #grantbrittain https://www.instagram.com/p/BvZw4nDnTUT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3p0u237ufua2

Every skate photographer starts out with shooting their friends, I can attest to that. This is one of my oldest friends @b_ray at an early morning session at VC Reservoir in 1981. I loved skating this place and loved skating it with him and @surfyskatey This morning the cops came and we got the boot. Shot with Minolta SRT201 and 20mm Rokkor lens on Kodak Tri-X film.

My Zine in the mid-80s was “Airzine”. Back then, you would do a Xeroxed zine on your area and feature your friends, these are two of my best friends @b_ray and @surfyskatey Fun times!

This is one of my oldest friends @b_ray We met one day in 1978 at the Del Mar Skate Ranch where I worked. We were talking and found out we had Kneeboarding in common(not on skateboards, Surfing man). I got him a job there and we became the best of friends. Bill, @surfyskatey and I made a few runs out to the VC Reservoir in the early 1980s and those were the best of times, that place was perfect. Bill Billing is still skating and surfing and enjoying life in his mid 50s, may he live long and prosper!
