Waikiki line up - very mellow

The king of Waikiki surf - Toots Arthur

Oahu, Hawaii February 2019
I used to travel every winter to shoot Pipeline in Hawaii (not so much any more). It’s one of the most inspiring places to take photos because of the incredible waves and easy access to the world’s best surfers. This year, the entire North Shore was under siege from a massive storm, a wave broke in front of our house and ripped part of the deck off at Waimea. We had to shoot West Coast and Waikiki – which was partly out of the gale-force winds.

Milos, Greece August 2019
Such unique landscapes after millions of years of volcanic activity. Super mellow island, windy as hell but you can always find a cave or secluded beach to seek refuge. By far our favourite Greek islands we’ve visited.
