Upper Trestles

Days like these are why I love shooting in the water so much. Fun conditions, (mostly) chill people, and dreams-sometime-do-come-true weather. Check out more from the day here: http://www.vivantvie.com/California/uppers29sept2010/

Sunrise @ Newport Pier

Super fun sunrise adrienne-tries-to-teach-nathan-how-to-surf morning. Unreal clear conditions above and below the water. Just too bad the waves weren’t bigger.

A Mermaid, Traffic, & a Surprise Birthday Party

HYPR SUP at Honokohau

Shooting (with my backup camera) for HYPR on an overcast, mostly-flat morning at Honokohau.  The winter swells better be good this upcoming Christmas break! The morning heated up quick.

Fun Day w/ Mathieu, Nadia, & Kalani

Early morning photos of a mostly-flat day at Ke’ei, a delicious breakfast at Lava Java, and an afternoon at Kua Bay in the best company of new friends one could ever ask for. Today was definitely a summer highlight.

Another Kohanaiki Sunset

Gorgeous sunset, but small waves again.  Stoked to be home for the winter, so I take some actual surf/action shots rather than all these random summer wave/water shots. View more from this afternoon, here.

An adventure down to Ke’ei beach, down by Honaunau / Kealakekua Bay! The waves were smaller than hoped for, but it was still an incredible place to shoot! Caves, canary fish, untouched corals, and prickly black wana everywhere. View more

The Rock @ Kohanaiki (revisited)

Re-crusing the Rock out at Pine Trees to get some better surf shots! I pre-packed my housing at home, instead of down at the beach, and it definitely lasted a lot longer in the water before it started fogging up!

Cruising The Rock today out at Pine Trees with some old friends. My housing fogged up way too quickly though as the morning heated up, so I have to figure out a better way to pack it.
