I love taking photos of the ocean in all its' moods, it's very similar to surfing. I enjoy riding the waves with my eyes when I'm taking the photo, and again, when I'm looking at the processed image. I began photographing the ocean when I was a child. I was drawn to it for its beauty and it continues to draw me in today. Making films is another extension of what I'm interested in. It's a huge medium to work within. It combines photography, interviews, music, editing, travel, finance, other people, patience, ideas and endless trails with endless possibilities. It's a fun process but one that often seems insurmountable. There are so many factors involved in the making of a film - it's a small wonder they are even made at all.
