- One of the heaviest days I’ve ever shot anywhere. A sunny Sunday afternoon and a completely empty lineup. Was solid and took me about 15 minutes to find an opening to jump off the rocks to swim out. This was after getting a set on the head, getting washed round then swam back out to see one of the most amazing waves break I’ve ever seen.
- This is somewhere near where I live and is a special shot for me as it’s the first photo print I ever sold. Also captures the winter feel.
- One of my favourite photos, feels like this shot has a lot of depth to it and is the one I want on my wall. Rare to get such great light.
- The was taken on one of the best days I’ve ever seen round where I live, but while waiting for the wind and tide and swell to come together I went round to this spot for the first time. It was pissing rain and miserable but the backwash looked cool. So happy I did because you don’t see to many double barrels like this.
- Quite simply the day of the decade at home. That’s Ed Smith paddling out. This was on the same day as the double backwash barrel but at a completely different spot. Big, barreling and so much fun. Racked up over 5 hours in the water with shooting and surfing on this February day.
- This is one of my local beach breaks, and is renowned for being fat and weak, so nice to see it like this now and then.
- Taken a battering by the storms recently. Not really any good for surfing here, but somewhere I’ve wanted to shoot because of the backdrop. Had to wait for very specific, once a year type conditions. Something I’ve been trying to do is stay away from the more renowned spots and have been trying to find my own little niche.
- This was taken quite recently during a session with Matz Ginman-Trout and Ed Smith. This was a great morning, sunny, quiet and good people with good vibes. Waves were tricky and unpredictable but every now and then a bomb would come through. Restored my enjoyment of shooting away from home with friendly locals. Thanks Matz.
- Boxing Day rainbow at my local. Everyone loves a rainbow.
- Continuing the rainbow theme – there’s been a lot this winter! Another secluded beach I’ve been wanting to shoot for a while.
- A different angle of home. This four hour session I had to myself and switched from surfing to bodyboarding to shooting about 3 times. With my partner and daughter playing on the beach and barrels to myself for hours it just reminds me of why I love waves.
- This is a spot that isn’t really surfed, is unpredictable, a scary mix of shorebreak with big rocks randomly scattered, is fickle and a pain in the arse to get to. This shot took a lot of effort and time spent to get, but eventually that one perfect wave came through, and it was a belter.
- This has been my most popular photo by far. This was the first shot I got that I really thought ‘yep, that’s a good one’. Think this will be in my top 10 shots for a while.
