No reputable outlet has published a net worth estimate for Amagansett Press or the man behind it, Jason Gutterman, so this page does not give one. The $5 million figure on an earlier version of this page came from a spam site and has been removed. What is documented: Gutterman is a self-described photojournalist and "First Amendment auditor" who has run the Amagansett Press YouTube channel since December 2018. His income comes from the channel and, at least once, from a legal settlement.

What is Amagansett Press's net worth?

No business publication has estimated it. YouTube creators' earnings depend on views, ad rates and sponsorships, none of which Gutterman has published in full. The only earnings figure in the press is secondhand: in July 2021 the New York Post reported that fellow auditor Sean-Paul Reyes said Gutterman once claimed to have netted $30,000 in a single month (New York Post). That is one month, reported through a third person, and it cannot be turned into a net worth.

Amagansett Press is not a company with outside owners; it is the name of Gutterman's channel. Its value is his audience and the income that audience brings in.

How much does Amagansett Press make?

His yearly income is not public. Earlier versions of this page listed $300,000 a year, $25,000 a month and $800 a day. Those numbers had no source and have been removed.

The reported sources of money are:

  • YouTube: ad revenue from videos that regularly reach hundreds of thousands of views. A July 2026 video shot in Vail, Colorado, passed 500,000 views and 8,000 comments within days (Vail Daily).
  • Legal settlements: in 2020 the town of Silverthorne, Colorado, paid him $9,500 after police asked him to leave a post office where he was filming (Summit Daily).

An earlier version of this page called Amagansett Press one of the most popular channels in the U.S. That claim had no source and has been removed.

Who is Jason from Amagansett Press?

Jason Gutterman describes himself as a photojournalist. In a First Amendment audit, he films public buildings, businesses and officials from public places, such as sidewalks and post office lobbies, to test whether people and police will respect the right to record. Many of his videos show long exchanges with officers. In 2022 the Today's News-Herald of Lake Havasu City described him as a former paparazzo (Today's News-Herald).

The New York Post described him in 2021 as an East Hampton resident who uses the name Amagansett Press, after the hamlet on the eastern end of Long Island. He often films with his son.

An earlier version of this page said his photographs had been featured in major outlets worldwide and had won numerous awards. We found no record of either claim, and they have been removed.

Several of his videos have drawn local news coverage:

  • Silverthorne, Colorado (2020): police asked him to leave the post office at the postmaster's request. The town later agreed to the $9,500 settlement.
  • Moorhead, Minnesota (May 2021): after he posted a video of officers at the local post office, the police department received so many angry calls and comments from around the country that it briefly took its Facebook page offline (West Central Tribune).
  • Bay County, Florida (November 2021): sheriff's deputies arrested him while he filmed outside a UPS customer center across the street from a high school, citing a school-zone statute. His lawyer said a local court threw the case out days later (The News Herald). In April 2022 his lawyer filed notice of intent to sue the sheriff's office and the city of Lynn Haven; the sheriff defended the deputies (WMBB).
  • Vail, Colorado (July 2026): a video in which he commented on a woman handling a child in a stroller went viral, and Vail police said they would look into the incident after seeing it (Vail Daily).

Family

News reports confirm that Gutterman has a son who travels and films with him. An earlier version of this page named a wife, described two children and included two photos labeled as his family and his wife. No source confirms the wife's name or identity, so those claims and both photos have been removed.

Education

His education is not publicly documented. Earlier text on this page about his academic record had no source and has been removed.

How old is Jason Gutterman?

The New York Post gave his age as 51 in July 2021, which puts his birth around 1970 and makes him about 55 or 56 in 2026. His height and weight are not publicly documented, and the figures on an earlier version of this page have been removed.

Net worth compared

Gutterman's income model is closest to other independent YouTubers on this site, such as 1090 Jake, who also earns mainly from his own channel. As with Gutterman, no reputable outlet publishes a verified net worth for him.

Why no estimate is given

YouTube earnings vary widely with ad rates, audience location and how many videos are monetized, and Gutterman has not published his figures. The only reported number is a single secondhand claim about one month's income. Any net worth figure built on that would be a guess, and the ones circulating online, including the $5 million this page used to carry, have no traceable source.
