Made from recycled surfboards and neoprene, these are products that I can feel good about buying. I like the idea that keeping stuff out of landfills could bring so much joy.

Indo Report

In a stroke of good fortune, I got booked late October on a last minute shoot in Sumatra to shoot orangutans for a wildlife conservation project. The producer and I got on great, so much that after the shoot he offered me his place to stay in Bali while he was away. Needless to say, I didn't need to be asked twice!

I got in some surfing at Kuta and Canggu and took my HD camera down to the Bukit Peninsula to shoot when a bigger swell came in earlier this week. Here's a few teaser images until I get the video edited:

Keramas.

Uluwatu. A heavy place, especially with anything overhead.

Stay tuned!
