Beginning of my photography career was back in 2012, in my last year of high school. Our love for the ocean is only natural. The ocean is a teacher to us all.
Over the years I have travelled up and down the coast searching for the beautiful moving water. It has taken me to some of the most deadliest reefs, point breaks and beachies that would rival Hawaii, dumping shoreys and longest rides on the East Coast of Australia. So far I have only had 2 cameras, both of them Nikon. All of these photos have been taken with average camera's. Anyone can pick up a top of the line camera and call themselves a photographer. But photos are some much more that just a still of matter, it is an expression of a moment, of an emotion, of a memory. It is capturing those deep fluctuating feelings that makes photography such a challenge.
The Ocean is not only symbolised as a place of healing and life, but many find solace.. It is not just a hobby to be at the beach, it is a lifestyle. When you're in the water, with the raw power of the ocean. Capturing just a second of the motion from these monsters is my dream. To share the passion and feeling of excitement through these images. For all of you that surf, boog or swim with waves that make you house look small, you will understand when I say it is a way of life. Your body is in a totally different state. You body, your mind, your soul and your board fuse to tame the beasts that roll from the horizon.
I will do my best to capture the feelings that come with sharing even a moment with these waves, because once you've felt that rush of adrenaline through your veins, there's no going back. You are bound for life.
