The Inertia - Photography Portfolio

I recently received an invitation to share a portfolio of my work on The Inertia. It is amazing website started by the old editor of Surfer Magazine featuring "news, commentary, photography, and art from the global surf community’s most talented and prominent figures."

I am honored to have a collection of my work featured on the site.

The Art of Flight - A New Standard for Action Sports Films

I watched Brain Farm Digital Cinema's latest snowboard movie the other night after getting out of the Grand Canyon and was blown away.  The Art of Flight is an incredlbe film.  The production quality, the action, and the sound track are all amazing.  The innovative cinematogrpahy gives the film universal appeal beyond the snowboard and extreme sports industry.  A new standard has been set.

Into the Wild

It has been a while since I last updated the blog. I have been very busy with lots of back to back adventures and travels: San Diego, Hood River, Lanai, Oahu, Kauai, and now off to the Grand Canyon for a 240 mile, 15 day rafting trip.

Here are a couple photos from my recent trip to the Napali Coast on the north shore of Kauai.  I will post some images from the canyon after the trip.

Follow the Light 2011

I was honored to have been chosen as one of the top 5 finalists for the 2011 Follow the Light Foundation grant for emerging surf photographers.  The surf industry can be very challenging place for young photographers to find recognition and support.   Follow the Light provides a venue to showcase the best of the next generation and continue the spirit of legendary photographer and editor Larry "Flame" Moore. The grant gives five finalists inspiration to continue the faithful pursuit of their dreams and passion.

I never had the opportunity to meet Larry "Flame" Moore, but from all of the stories and images in the commemorative book 30 Years of Flame, he must have been a shinning light in the industry.  

Thank you to all of the organizers who make Follow the Light such an amazing event year after year:
Celeste Moureaux, Candace Moore, Aaron Chang, Peter Taras, Chris Burkard, all the board members, and generous sponsors.




Congrats to Duncan Macfarlane -  2011 Follow the Light Foundation Gant Winner.

Reckless Abandon

No one surfs with same reckless abandon as Albee.  Albee always paddels out. Albee always catches waves. Albee always breaks boards.  The following are few images from the last swell of Albee charging what most people don't even consider a real wave.

Summer
