Welcome back to our O’Neill x Stab #FeelsLikeFreedom Photolyfe series. For those unfamiliar, Photolyfe is ten questions answered in images. 

Yep! That ole a picture’s worth a thousand words morsel. 

This time, we’re featuring 22-year-old Andrew Reiss of the Jersey Shore, New Jersey. 

“Before photography my passion was hockey. I played in High School, was all state four years in a row but after a few too many concussions, I had to call it quits,” Andrew tells Stab. “I went and bought my first camera two years ago. I love shooting surfing. I’m also a Deadhead. And, even though I wasn’t able to see the Dead, I do love going to see Dead and Company. I’ve been to 13 shows.” 

“Currently I work at a liquor store but later this month I’m going to move to Colorado to work at a ski resort. Even though I’ll miss the best time of the year in Jersey, I’ll be snowboarding for free in Colorado. So I’m not complaining.”
