Digital playground.

Last night I went out to shoot just in time to see the clouds come in and the golden light turn grey. Here's a couple shots anyways that I played with in Camera RAW and thought they were kinda cool.

All girls trip

After a 3 week stint at home in San Diego, I found myself back on the road with a group of 5 of the best woman surfers this planet has to offer. We were fortunate enough to fly into a week of waves (which is rare when the trip is booked months in advance), but we got lucky and had some great sessions. The girls absolutely ripped the place to shreds. Outside of the water the conversations ranged anywhere from graduating high school, Beyonce, Gossip Girl, and a number of other new shows that I had never heard of. But in all seriousness, I was blown away at the performance that these girls were showing in the water, not to mention they were all cool as shit to hang with. Look for our story along with some video clips to be featured in an upcoming issue of Surfer Magazine. I owe a HUGE thank you to Janna for choosing me to shoot the trip.

New website coming soon

I've been working hard on building a new website with a lot of new photos from over the past year and it should be up soon...

But for now check out the old one at

Mustaches and Music

Donovan Frankenreiter played a free show last night to a packed crowd at Pillbox Beach to finish up Solana Beachs annual Fiesta del Sol. As the street vendors began to close up shop and local artists put there pieces away Donovan took the stage for the last hour of light as the crowded moved and swayed to a number of his new hits and older classics. The crowd was filled with fake "Dono stashed" groms and old folks alike. One of the highlights of the performance was when a little girl who looked to be about 5 got on stage and sang the words to "It Don't Matter" alongside the band. The crowd went wild. Stayed tuned to www.donavonf.com as he has a couple of secret performances somehwere in Southern California that you may just be able to get into to if you play your cards right...

The Rum Diaries

Last February I did a trip with the Billabong crew down to Barbados to shoot photos while they filmed for their new surf film titled "Still Filthy." The article was published about a month ago in Surfer magazine, but now for your viewing pleasure you can check it out online too!

San Francisco Strike...out

Got a last minute call to fly up to SF to hang alongside Timmy Curran, Benny B, and Keith Malloy as they film for Timmy's new movie. We ended up getting fogged in for the 2 days I was there and enjoyed a night out on the town before driving back down to SD the next day. All in all, the waves were non-existant, but we shared some stories, laughs, sushi, and a couple beers along the way. Here's a couple snapshots from behind the scenes at the train station...

Matuse team in Nicaragua

Matuse Wetsuits flew myself along with my friends and fellow teamriders Derek "Double D" Dunfee, Mikala and Daniel Jones, and our boy Matt donatelo to Nicaragua to chase the last south swell and get some new images for an upcoming advertising and editorial gallery to go in Surfer Magazine! I owe a huge thanks to John Campbell and the boys at Matuse for choosing me to shoot.

Here is a link to a quick edit from our trip and a few photos for your viewing pleasure...

Sparky

My good friend Chris has the raddest dog. His name is Sparky, he is a 4 year old ball of energy who goes on daily walks and runs around the backyard like there is no tomorrow.

Swine Flu

Last sunday I found myself getting off a plane in Mexico City and being handed a pamphlet about this "Swine Flu" pandemic. I was on my way back from a 5 day Peru mission. As for now, I'm feeling good and don't think any of those little buggers got in me. Here's a shot of me working on the shots from the trip.

COVER

This months issue of Surfer Magazine has a photo I took of Greg Long earlier this year on the cover! It's one of those "If I told you I would have to kill you sort of places" so don't get any ideas as to where this wave is, because these lips are sealed!hahaha. Inside the issue also has a couple spreads too!
