Series 2023 | Newport Beach, CA
Prints of Multiple Sizes Available
All Prints Are Limited to 10 Reproductions Per Image
There’s something sacred about the rhythm of a wave — the way it builds, crests, and crashes in perfect surrender to the shoreline. In Newport Beach, this rhythm is more than nature — it’s a way of life.
From the golden mornings where locals paddle out beneath pastel skies, to the electric pulse of the South Swells that bring friends, strangers, and generations together — surfing here is ritual. It’s freedom, movement, and connection. It’s salt on your skin, sand in your hair, and the unspoken bond between rider and sea.
The Surf series captures the raw energy and poetic stillness of these moments. Each image is a study in motion and mood — a love letter to the culture, the coast, and the community that calls this stretch of California home.
Select works from this gallery may be available for purchase. All pieces are offered as large-format, limited edition prints — typically produced in editions of 10, signed, dated, and never reprinted once the series closes.
