She introduced me to the world of cold open water swimming with no wetsuit. I remain amazed at how long they can swim like this. We've been shooting together at random intervals for nearly a decade. This image taken out in the deep water, off Point Defiance. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/b675d9c6-3392-4512-9975-39d72029fe2e/DSC07474.jpg Portfolio Hillary and the Moon jellyfish. Another winter shot. I think it was about 32 degrees on this day and of course the water temp was around 48. Winter water is the clearest. And what a fortunate moment this was to capture this gentle interaction in the sea. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/f8e3b76d-3d02-4177-93b3-bf3c160b6034/B%26W+Owen+Jan+26+.jpeg Portfolio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/7690fa84-2519-43ba-997a-1a66a36fe2cd/Gothic+Sea.jpeg Portfolio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/00a9d9af-68b1-4c50-82f1-0239c3aa0e66/DSC02045.jpeg Portfolio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/2ffe9bb9-82d2-460c-9d68-fceb15f44bbc/DSC06834-2.jpg Portfolio Em makes bubbles. My dear friend, almost like a little sister - Emily has been a pool synchro swimmer her entire life (and coach too). We wanted to capture the raw connectedness of the human body to the cold dark Salish Sea. Em flows through the sea with ease. The row of giant chrome bubbles here reflecting off the surface, and the line of her body - reminds me of the Cousteau Society logo. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/a80d4674-e822-4bb8-b6fa-4250fe260818/DSC00604.jpg Portfolio One of my favorites. Some have said it makes them think of a womb. Others felt something submissive about it. The rays of light on one side and the darkening fade on the other. There is a lot to this one. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/06131e2f-c1fb-443a-a93f-761aea1dbc67/DSC09520.jpg Portfolio The water shaped light patterns on Melissa's skin is my favorite part about this shot. Water temp is 48. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/b7ef5a0f-a36e-41f5-a096-1718bc4bd625/DSC03543.jpg Portfolio Jill channeling HR Giger. The timing of this shot was perfect as her face was refracted within the bubble. All three things (Jill, the bubble and me) had to rise at the same pace. Jill maintained perfect throttle control on this, entirely aware of where she was with the rising bubble. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/9129a245-2615-4707-81ec-48fec17b653b/DSC09421.jpg Portfolio A dramatic play of raw humanity, dark cold water, sunlight and bubbles - Melissa in the Salish Sea. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/3e980b81-4a44-4bf8-b02a-c9982589c5cd/DSC06894.jpg Portfolio Em playing the role of a particle in space....she moves exposed and vulnerable through the dark cold sea in a seamless dance in the same place where orcas roam freely. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/efaf625c-b0a9-4195-9dea-36ca584f6746/DSC03328.jpg Portfolio Jill X Submission X Sea. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/f9829365-1e32-4e24-bad1-11fd6f1e504b/DSC08037-2.jpeg Portfolio Melissa exiting the scene.

But this image was an experiment. A moment in time to embrace dark images and feelings and explore where they took me. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/6221c9cd-1a14-4dc4-8980-91030d83cb72/DSC06366.jpg Portfolio If ever I actually met a mad scientist....'tis one right here. A bespoke surfboard fin maker from Canada, and a scientist (walk into a bar?) Watching him work little waves was magic. He danced alone for hours. I tried to honor him by capturing the spirit of his art. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/e696dd93-998a-481a-9a58-aeda14c70fdf/DSC07983.jpeg Portfolio This image was to celebrate a new tattoo for Melissa. And again, we got that play of light through the shapes of water. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/fd560454-819f-4470-8ac2-47587b049e67/DSC04119.jpeg Portfolio Malia doing her best Little Mermaid impression on a cold winter day. Above the surface the fog was intense, but behind us the sun had broken through. Being a winter sun, it was low in the sky and pierced into the water like a spotlight. It played out perfect for this shot. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/0639079f-6608-438f-9f35-f1728622c017/DSC07914.jpeg Portfolio Gossamer wings.

This beach is a personal favorite. The surf here is fickle, and for the most part, pretty gentle when it is. A nice sand floor that tapers gently. The bull kelp here in late summer/ early fall is spectacular. So are the tide pools both west and east of it. One of the things I love about this spot is the angle of the mid-day sun. In winter, it's a low arc on the horizon and it gets blocked by the mountains pretty early. But it lights up the faces beautifully on a clear day. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/7bfe0657-a1f5-4992-a03f-6a1da56de2bc/GOOD+JAX+WAVE.jpeg Portfolio Jacksonville Beach, Florida. Say what you will about Florida, I was taken by how kind everyone was at this local surf break. That's the Jacksonville Beach Pier in the background and there is some great longboard surfing to be had here. I spent a week shooting this break and got to meet a little bit of every kind of group who surfed here. I didn't meet a single bad egg. Sure, things were a little different on shore. That's pretty true around any beach. It was early December of 2021 on this trip and I was in board shorts and a rash guard, while all the locals were in full-on 3+mm wetsuits. "You are not from around here are you?" "Nope. In fact, just about as far from here as you can get on this part of the map. This feels like bathwater by comparison." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/0495fd9f-0f7f-4027-a710-0935929d4fb6/DSC09596-2.jpeg Portfolio Another from my favorite little spot up on the Strait. This is a little wave, but sometimes you have to work with what you got.

No tricks. In fact, this is the same piece of water shot over different days. The only thing that changed was the natural light. I love that you can experience bronze, purple and orange this way. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/578dd05a-c031-4c50-a8be-60723424f0e2/DSC07993.jpeg Portfolio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/5bfefed7-206a-491f-a17b-a4072fa8e9d2/DSC08095.jpeg Portfolio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/f7e64a91-469e-4557-a447-ba6627c34f46/DSC03595.jpeg Portfolio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/15cd1289-1e78-46f9-ae8e-0a65ed96945c/DSC06328.jpeg Portfolio Bull kelp off Point Defiance. Late summer. The floor drops off quickly here. From ankle deep to almost 600 feet in a little more than a quarter mile. But where the suns rays penetrate the surface, the seasonal bull kelp makes its bid for success. A lot of current through here as well, tipping the speedometer north of 3kts with tidal exchanges reaching 17 feet at the peak points of the year. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/4ddee3ce-2937-4de2-bcb5-4a66f59f0678/DSC07451.jpeg Portfolio A slow shutter on a winters morning. The Pacific Northwest has a special kind of relationship with the arc of the sun. Long summer days and short winter ones. That low winter light on a clear day makes pastel magic. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/2d65761d-cc61-49f1-833e-81e1c9a6ba57/DSC07195.jpeg Portfolio Mid channel, Dalco Passage. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/671aa1349302aa03f902b602/43cc4bc1-05f7-4d83-b4e8-18d491991fb6/DSC09525.jpeg Portfolio A slow shutter on a winter morning.
