wow, another picture perfect day at the beach. so fun shooting photos and capturing the moment. the girls went out in full swing so i was front row again, the best spot in the world for a photographer. check out the action and there will be a full gallery coming really soon on go-naminori.com.
just like her father and older brother, Sara-chan has the golden smile. always happy to see the Wakita family growing up into fine adults. great parenting.
i saw Sara-chan surf so good on a couple of waves. 10 levels up from last years contest and on her way to a professional career.
before the heat and even after the heat. the big smile that separates her from the others. because in hawaii, a smile is the most important thing. it shows respect, and it shows aloha. good girl.
more actions from the junior girls division. girls are ripping!
and girls are throwing spray.
gosh, the waves were absolutely perfect today. you couldn’t ask for anything better than this for a contest.
focus and determination.
i love photos like this because it shows the power. some girls go up and tap the lip. some girls go up and smash the lip. this is smashing the lip.
another smashing of the lip. and good girl promoting her sponsors.
this girl was so cute. the smallest one of the competitors with a big heart. she was charging.
these young girls are probably all inspired by world champion Carissa Moore.
backside grab rail? perfect style girl!
off the lip perfectly timed.
Maki-san on one of her good ones. Local Motion wouldn’t be Local Motion without this wonder woman.
Angela has been surfing really good recently on her short board. it kind of trips me out that she only started short boarding a few years ago.
perfect style. this is girl doing a man turn.
bowls was closed due to competition today. so rock piles had double the surfers out. it was packed!
and if you got the right one, you will score!
Akoi-chan over at rock piles always surfing with style and grace. killer photo.
after shooting, went surfing with Kimura-san and Hayato. just us and some long rights. score again!
gallery coming soon. i’m doing my best so please be patient because i have to enjoy my life too. haha.
