Early Morning Sachuest
Fall and winter are my seasons for shooting landscapes and seascapes. This means rising before the sun the catch those brilliant sunrises, heading out during storms to see some wicked weather, and timing it just right to catch sunsets and vibrantly illuminated clouds. I've given myself the task of shooting scapes about once a week for the next couple of months. My first stop: Sachuest Point and Beach over in Middletown. Although I didn't plan properly to catch the sunrise and predawn light, I went over to Second Beach for the early morning. It was a gorgeous day with a slight chill and fog in the air, but I was pretty happy with my first morning assignment for the season! I hope you enjoy these shots as well!

Warm Getaways
I had been eagerly awaiting this winter season. Here in New England, the winter months can be rather frigid, but for those of us who don’t mind the exhaustive work of climbing into 6 mil wetsuits or ice-cream-headache cold waters, it’s the eagerly anticipated winter months that bring the biggest swells. We had snow before the New Year and water temps quickly started approaching 40°F. But in typical fashion, as soon as the long awaited winter months arrived, I was craving a break from the cold gray in favor of a warm water reprieve.
Board Portraits // Experiments
I've been wanting to shoot more portraits lately, but in combination with the surf community that I've been so involved with the past year. My good friend, Kevin Tanner, behind Soudnings Surf Co creates some gorgeous handcrafted boards. He does all his own shaping, resin work, and glassing, and I wanted to photograph some beautiful boards to highlight his craftsmanship as well as portraits of my friends who ride them. I decided to do board portraits.
Snowy Surf Sessions
A lot of us enjoy the warm weather, but a select few of us still enjoy (or perhaps tolerate) the cold weather. And nothing quite says winter like a fresh snowfall! On the rare occasion Rhode Island experiences more than one inch of snow while there's swell in the water, you can find a select few of dedicated riders on the shore eager to have a snow session.
