Summary

When photographer Jamey Price first turned his lens toward motorsports, he wasn't simply chasing speed—he was chasing feeling. The roar of engines, the blur of motion, the choreography of pit crews and drivers—all of it became raw material for a visual language that balances technical precision with emotional intensity. His photographs don't just freeze high-performance machines; they capture the atmosphere, tension, and spectacle that define global racing culture. That pursuit culminates in his new book, Racing Unfiltered, a signed and numbered edition that brings readers closer to the visceral reality of professional racing. Created entirely with branded disposable cameras, the images possess a raw, unpredictable character—grainy, imperfect, and immediate—offering a distinctive look far removed from the polished precision of modern digital capture. Rather than presenting only carefully crafted highlight moments, the work embraces spontaneity and constraint, revealing the grit behind the glamour: the preparation, exhaustion, unpredictability, and human vulnerability embedded within elite competition. The result is an immersive and refreshingly unfiltered study of motion, risk, and ambition.

0:00.0	We often think of motorsport photography as clean, polished, and high speed, frozen moments of precision and control.
0:14.8	But Jamie Price's new book, Racing Unfiltered, turns that idea on its head.
0:23.9	Armed not with a high-end DSLR and mirrorless camera, but with a stack of disposable film cameras, Jamie set out to capture something raw
0:30.3	and unvarnished. The result is a gritty, intimate portrait of life inside the paddock.
0:37.3	Backstage moments, blurred nights,
0:39.8	spontaneous celebrations, and the quiet human spaces that exist between.
0:45.5	Known for his elite-level motorsport work, Jamie takes a risk with the racing unfiltered.
0:51.2	It's a creative detour, but one that taps into the same instincts that draw him
0:56.1	to photography in the first place. Curiosity, access, and a love for storytelling. The work feels
1:03.8	fast, tactile, and personal, like thumbing through someone's visual journey at 200 miles per hour.
1:11.5	This is IbarianX and this is The Candid Frame.
1:19.9	All right, well, Jamie, welcome to The Candid Frame.
1:22.9	Thanks for having me. I'm really excited to be here.
1:25.3	I got to tell you, I have great admiration for the
1:28.3	photography that you do. I had a chance years ago to go to Monterey and get onto the track.
1:35.9	And I was there because a particular camera manufacturer was promoting a camera, so they brought a bunch
1:40.7	of photographers out there to try a hand at shooting. And man, I got to tell you, most of the stuff I shot was crap.
1:47.0	Of course.
1:47.9	It's hard to get used to.
1:51.1	But then once you're used to it, it's really, I don't want to say easy, but it's very predictable.
1:58.2	Like, I've been very fortunate over my career to have done a lot of different kinds of
2:02.2	sports. And like I still think volleyball, indoor volleyball is like one of the hardest things
