“I am always super grateful just to be in the ocean and see the things I get to see, feel the power and the love of the water, and enjoy the company of friends. It’s not always about that golden shot or good catch for me.
I shoot with the Sony A7R III and A6500. I use Salty Surf housings from Australia for my water housings. I like my rigs to be as small and compact as possible.
I have always looked up to Chris Burkard, Jeremiah Klein, and the local legends like Zak Noyle, John Hook, and Keoki Saguibo. Grateful for them and all that they teach me.”
