I always try to look for the raw emotion
in people’s faces when they’re taking
part in a race
There are some big SUP racing events across
the international paddling community. If you
could attend and photograph one which would
it be and why?
I love looking at the photos from the Californian races,
especially last year’s Pacific Paddle Games at Doheny State
beach, because the carnage and colours were spectacular!
What about other events – SUP or otherwise?
What high profile gatherings would you like to
shoot and why?
I’d love to shoot motor sport and cycling events, such as the
Tour de France and the Monaco Grand Prix. I’ve grown up
watching them on TV and it’d be great to be there, amongst
the action.
How about your own personal SUP experience –
do you ever get chance for a float? If so, where
do you normally paddle and with whom?
I make sure I get out on the water every summer, I love
paddling, but I don’t race as I prefer to be there for the
photos. I usually paddle on my local coastline with my dad
and my younger brother, Luke.
