BALI (part 2) Monkey Temple
Epic moped trip up to Ubud: Mopeds were $5 per day, farmer tan sunburns, multiple petrol fill-ups on the side of the road, monkey attacks at Monkey Temple, sweet deals on clothes/souvenirs, getting ripped off by police, and the best

An impromptu surf session with my roommate at Blackies after french class. We got some pretty gnarly rains this week after the heat spell, so the sunset colours and clouds were absolutely incredible. The waves were super manini so we

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
This morning I trekked on down to La Jolla to meet up with Dana (www.konamermaid.com) and do an UW shoot in the seaweed in the cove. Wetsuit-free, for once, because the weather was so nice. It was murkier than we

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.

Malia
After a morning at Honoli’i, I met up with Malia Lisa Mahealani to do a MM TF shoot at Richardson’s Beach. The water conditions weren’t as clear as we had hoped for, and the currents made everything a lot more

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.

Good Afternoon, Kohanaiki
Mushy afternoon out at The Rock with Tien and Nadia.
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.

Ke’ei
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

Hello sunrise! My favourite shoots have always been the ones that require jumping in and swimming around with my camera while photographing amazing people/friends and this day definitely goes in my list of favourites. This was a picture-perfect paradise for

The Bay @ Kohanaiki
Early morning photos in the bay at Pine Trees. It turned into a windswept chop pretty early in the morning though, so I didn’t stay for long.

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.

On a hot summer day, with nothing to do … a trip to the brackish water ponds out in the lava fields was an excellent way to pass time and soak in the sun. View more photos from today here.
