well thats what I know from a very long time :)

A little about me :
Jamal Abdulnasser Al-Ayoubi is the name I was giving after the great arabian leaders Jamal Abdulnasser the president of Egypt and my greatest grandfather the arabian leader Salahuldein Alayoubi but I have nothing to do with politics and earned the great love of art from my family, I'm the grandson of Mahmoud Shawkey Alayoubi one of the known poets in kuwait and the middle east, many of my family members have the passion of art in their work of poetry and painting like my uncle Safwan Al-ayoubi famous of his work in the surreal abstract with oil painting, I used to write poetry in 1994 and printed a book of 300 pages of my writings, now I'm a photographer and loving the unique art of it.

my story with photography
Born in 1980 and was fascinated by the art of photography from my youth, at the age of 5 I use to play with a point and shoot camera having fun with the on camera flash light and began taking real pictures at the age of 15 experimenting older film cameras and the process of film developing techniques with some of my family members when photography was only one of my many hobbies.
In 1999 I got my first digital camera with only 2.5 mega pixels when I start taking family and friends portraits and some beautiful things around me while loving the ease of using digital photography.
In 2002 I traveled to the USA and there I got a higher mega pixels camera and start to take pictures with a native eye of what I see around me of things that I never knew about, many friends were fond of my photography and they ask for some of my photos and use it in their computer desktop, then i started to read more about photography and learn a lot from many photography websites, forums, books and magazines and start to take more artistic pictures with more appealing angles.
In 2005 i got my first digital single lens reflex camera and acquire the membership of Kuwait science club photography team and there I had the pleasure of meeting many great photographers and learn a lot about photography with them then i enroll in some photography competitions and get the first place in two of them, after couple of years I acquire the membership of the international federation of art photography and participated in some of the federation's international galleries.
In 2007 I start to shoot professionally with my good friend Faisal Al-Bisher under the umbrella of "EVMG" eagle vision media group when we earned the grade of creative directors and take photos for the most luxurious hotels and restaurants in Kuwait, Lebanon, Egypt and Syria, today we have a great photographic knowledge in many different fields of photography and lectured some photography courses and workshops in kuwait science club and kuwait university now we are having the pleasure of taking photos and still learning about this great art.

"Jamal Al-Ayoubi,,,, is a hell of an elite professional photographer, in which i would call him the proud of the whole photographic arts in whole Kuwait.
he is the most intellectual photographic artist in Kuwait, i'm very pleased, proud and honored by his friendship and brotherhood as well.
a sharp eye, a sharp mind, and a sharp manhood, this is basically how i would describe him in summary. and it makes sense, because he is carrying the great genes of his great family !!!
If you were looking for something creative, artistic and innovative, basically look for Jamal Al-Ayoubi

cheers my friend !!

your humble brother

"Jamal Alayobi, a motivated hard working photographer working a long with his mate faisal albisher, all what I say is thank you for so much effort you made, photography in Kuwait and the Kuwait science club wonk be in its level now without you two, other wise we would have to wait for a long time to get to that standard. I'm just saying you both have build that road for every photographer here to walk on and get to the point.

"While I haven't been viewing jamal's stream for long , I always keep coming back to it for some reason. It's apparent that he has a real talent for finding beauty in just about anything, and then an eye for composing it all perfectly. I constantly marvel at how he adapts his skills to suit a variety of different situations, from city scenes, to nature. I really like your works bro ..
