Your Local Spot
Every surfer has a local surf spot which the frequent regularly. You may not be a local but you recognize other surfers and it is your favorite wave. You are always there when its going off and you know what conditions make the best wave. Not to mention what board to surf for any given surf conditions. But the best part about having a local spot is knowing how and where to wave breaks. Where to paddle to when a set rolls in and when to stall for the barrel section. Knowing a spot inside and out is one advantage of surfing a spot frequently.

I love photography because…. it allows me to tell stories. I come from a visual journalism background so telling stories through photos is what I am most passionate about.
My inspiration comes from…. good lighting. I always look for the best light possible when I shoot photos. The better the quality of light the better the photo.
Something most people don’t know about me is….I have a massive collection of stickers. The current count is well over 1,000.
