I was fortunate to be assigned to shoot the cover Feb/Mar 2013 issue of the Atlantic Current Magazine, which will be my third cover in a row with them.
Below are a handful of other images and assignments that were ran in the latest issue including FAU baseball, paddleboarding and an article on local surfer Codi Monroy!
Take a look at the 2012 edition of my 10 Frames Per Second (FPS) video which is a review of the last 12 months of shooting.

Cheyne and I hooked up on a nice turn that Surfline used a frame of. We thought the better frame went unused so you can check it on the flyer for IWS Surf Camp this summer in Cocoa Beach, FL.
A few shots from Monday afternoon as I headed up to shoot Cheyne, Scott, Ryan, Peter, Brian, Jensen and a whole bunch of other clowns fighting for one peak somewhere in Palm Beach County. I forgot my monopod, so a fat 4×4 did the job! I think I saw the worst fist fight in the water ever, not cool.
Last week a few of the stars aligned and South Florida actually got good. I headed up to search with Wes and Matt, meeting up with rest of the state of south fl to find some prestine conditions to shoot in. I really wanted to shoot water but the currents just weren’t right. Two sessions throughout the day provided for some great shots not to mention shooting some of the best in Florida. Here are a bunch and please no stealing the images with out contacting me first. Thanks!
