My Mom bought me my first waterproof camera when I was 12 years old.  Ever since, it’s been my passion to capture the most amazing moments.    

Luckily here in Hawaii, the colors of the sand, ocean, and sky are amazing.  

It’s only a split second you’re capturing.  It’s like time standing still.  

I like to capture the natural smile surfing brings out.  You just can’t beat this feeling.

Everyday the ocean has its moments.  I can sit out there all day long people watching.  

No matter where you surf, the view is beautiful.  Look around and be grateful of what surrounds you.

When you see a friend riding by, cheer him on and watch him enjoy the ride.  

Going underwater is a very different vibe.  The closest to surfing I can compare it to is like being in an eternal barrel.  Everything is silent, pure, relaxing, and breathtaking.  

If you surf, you’re happy.  If you free dive, you’re happy.  If you surf and free dive, you’re in heaven.
