The world championship race has kicked off again for 2013 with 11 time champion Kelly Slater up against a super in form current world champ Joel Parkinson yesterday at Kirra Beach. Kelly managed to snag the victory with an almost perfect ten on a screamer of a barrel, didn’t think he was ever going to come out. Here are some photographs from Tuesday’s day of competition at Gold Coast’s Snapper Rocks!

Epic day out in the waves, not long after I captured this image I retired the gear for a paddle myself!

A couple of weeks ago I posted a small film from Hiromi & Jeremy’s wedding at Gold Coast’s Burleigh Heads. Below are a selection of photographs from this magic day. Click any image for a larger peek!

I had the honor & privilege of capturing Hiromi & Jeremy’s special day in a intimate beachside ceremony on Gold Coast’s Burleigh Headland. It was a fantastic afternoon with perfect light and a pleasure working with such a beautiful couple. More images to come… In the meantime I hope you enjoy the film. Thanks goes to Céline for the introductory filming on her iPhone and for assisting in all the light metering on the day!
