Surfer Girls in Hawaii….

1042


good evening. it took my 3 weeks of every excuse in the book to get these girls together. when the girls are young, it’s so easy to get them to show up to shoot. now they are teenagers, help!! whether it’s nails, hair cut appointments, or boys, getting them together was a challenge….

here is our #2 in the world ISA surfer alyssa quizon. she was freakin ripping today surfing better than most guy surfers… check out reika on the shoulder taking notes on how this girl became #2 in the world…

this SUP guy got a sick one right in front of me….

nage is from kauai and also represented hawaii in the ISA world contest. this girl was power surfing. i got the craziest photos of her. stay tuned!!!

kelia took charge and was the coordinator for this whole photo shoot. i tried so many times but it’s impossible to get everybody together. if it wasn’t for her, i’d probably be sitting outside of the girls houses like a stalker and following them to the beach. what i learned from shooting these teenagers was “to never do it again.” haha…
stay tuned for the coolest photos of these girls and more in a magazine in japan….
but to tell you the truth, i had a blast with these girls today. their stories, their laughs, their cell phones. if i got the chance to return to my teens, i wouldn’t do it. i like it exactly where i am right now….
