it’s tough being a kid in hawaii!
It’s mornings like these that I am reminded why I love photographing people in the water. Kids especially, because their stoke-factor and way they interact with the water and each other is so pure, genuine and … inspiring.

On an Island in the Middle of Beqa Lagoon
Welcome to Yanuca Island! Home to a quaint strip of shell-ridden beach line, lofty palm trees, and crystal clear water. Alison and I spent about two weeks soaking in some sun, exploring the island, meeting the villagers of the other

Two weeks of Cloudbreak
Amazing to see this place in its different facets over two weeks – dead flat, softly shoulder-high, peaky and blown out, an offshore 8ft at 16 seconds, glassy and perfect 8-10ft stand-up barrels, and maxing out at 15ft+. Any of

The reef is SO alive! The second day out here, Alison took a wipeout on the reef nearing lowtide and got a lovely staph infection in her feet. Unhappily taking antibiotics, it kept her off her board for a few

This morning session with Johnny Abegg and Alex Frings included the company of a shark and pod of dolphins. This session nearly tops my list of most favourite sessions ever.

An early morning adventure down to Waipio Valley. Wave size, glassy conditions and swell direction were a sweet, pre-sunrise surprise, but absolutely impractical to shoot in the water with the ripping currents and overhead, picture-perfect barrels breaking over 5ft of

Sunset session at Banyans with Kahanu and some funny local kids.
Pine Trees
I failed at capturing any decent surf action shots this day but it sure was nice to jump back in the warm Kona waters and get pushed around by relatively large sets.

Byron Bay, again! I told myself after the first time that I wasn’t going to get obsessed with this place … but I just keep getting pulled back. This time, for sunset ripples at The Pass.

Two gloomy days in a row at Straddie. Crowds crowds crowds but it’s still always worth it. Primary surf housing is out for repairs so I’ve been using the Ewa-Marine U-BXP housing and Aquatech housing this past month. Guys freak

Spontaneous surf sessh at Narrowneck with Pidgey. Conditions were sub-par but without fail, he found a couple of barrels … and some decent rides on a literally unsurfable afternoon.
