"She came with fury and those that stood in the way were the bold and the brave."  This morning was on. Im sure there were lots of spots working too. I would have loved to see Moonee, Arrawarra, heck, maybe in Saph was working. But I went back to where I was yesterday...

This morning we caught a bump in the swell. Is this a sign of the season changing and the winter swell being on the way? Can only hope so.  The apps said a southerly swell direction was on for this morning. This was very much not the case. And where we shot this...

The sun just didnt wanna poke its head out for long this morning. We were down for a good 2 hours and I feel we got all the conditions, dark, hypercoloured, and everything in between.  The vibe was high again as families cashed in on the extended warm water and chill...

Summer prolonged itself another day. It was warm down the beach, with beautiful water temps and clarity.  My favourite part, so many of our favourite people were around. Plus, stacks of groms learning to surf with their mums and dads. It's just rad to see.  It was...

This morning had all the colours and the most fun clouds ive seen in a while. It felt like a classic Diggers morning.  I love March because the sun comes up just that little but later, meaning I get to shoot more sunrises. The kids still wake up at dumb-o'clock so its...

A polar opposite morning on the Coffs Coast since the last time I shot. We had a burst of colour early, but it faded quickly and the sky turned to gloom. I had a choice, put the camera away or try to work on a new skill.  Shooting slow shutter surf movement is a new...

After an massive working week last week with a conference in Sydney, we took Monday a tad slower and headed north in search for waves. Thankfully the NNW wind that was rolling through wasn't hurting the spot too much, and Ella grabbed some glides to start her day.  I...

It's Ella's birthday today, so we had to find some waves.  Not sure what the issue has been with the ocean the last couple of days. It just has been very straight, and very fat. This morning was no different. It honestly wouldn't be too bad, if it wasn't a Sunday and...

After a two week trip shooting content for Team Australia in Japan (National Baseball Team) I finally have made it back to the beach with the tools.  It was a cracking morning to shoot too. A bit of swell in the protected corner and good people around.  It took me a...

Today was my (Brad's) last chance to shoot some waves before spending two weeks in Japan for some contract work with the Australian Baseball team ahead of their World Baseball Classic. So we had to make it count. Checked Macs, checked Gallows... back to Macs. As I...

I cant remember the last time I was at the beach bang on sunrise. It was wonderful. But the surf was a bit lack luster. We had a random SW wind this morning. Its going to kick back around Northerly again tomorrow, then Windy and wet for the weekend (as the apps say)....

What am I doing. It's 1 foot. Yet, here I am taking so many dam photos. Why? The vibe is too good. We had so much fun seeing, chatting, hanging.... all of it.  Was great to shoot Mel from Elation whilst she is in the country. Was nice meeting Tills, always a blast...

Back in the corner, setting up our weekend right with some cute waves and early morning swims. Water temp is still top shelf, but the swell has backed off abit. Im assuming all the big time froth heads will be licking their lips at the forecast. Fingers crossed it...

Today is Tam's (Queen of the Froth's) birthday. We love Tam. She is always kind, up for a chat, always stoked and carries the vibe of what surfing in Coffs is all about. So, lots of photos of Tam this morning.  I shot 800+ photos. Why? No Idea. It was 1-2ft at best....

Waking up with clear skies... oh heck yeah. Was hoping for that yesterday with the southerly, but no luck. This morning rang different. Blue skies and that golden touch in the sun that happens after Summer... I was in the car real quick.  And the waves didn't...

An epic little kickoff for February with a fun spike in swell. I love shooting Macauley's. It holds so many good memories and ive been itching to shoot here more. Im surprised we havent had a cyclone swell yet, who knows... still a month of Summer to go. If you're...

This morning kicked off the CHBC season for us. I (Brad) have come on board to assist with Marketing, media and photography for the season. I am very excited for the season ahead.  I love what I do in the mornings at the locals. The people, the sun, the moments of...

Another beautifully lacklaster morning on the local. Was were trying at best. But the sun, the sand, the water temp, it all lines up.  We loose the southerly tomorrow and the Summertime champ of wind (aka Northerly) is back. Ill be down with the Coffs Harbour...

I feel like we are stuck in the summer swell lull. Don't get me wrong, we have had some decent swell moments through summer. But the last two days feels that in between what has been and what will come.  It was little, and it was not good. BUT (and its always a but)...

I can't seem to get a flow on of back to back shooting days at the beach at the moment. Life i sometimes like that. But this morning had its moments. Not so much much in the surf. It was either too small in the corner or too straight down the northern end.  But we got...

We searched localy for a prime hidden spot for this northerly wind. One spot, too small, one spot...to big.  So we headed north on the recommendation of Lan. It was much better than town. Ella didn't surf, too much traffic...but I like traffic.  Got to have friends in...

This morning was on. The banks doing there best to hold the size. It was still pretty stright and quick in town, where as Diggers had no hope. 3 people out but a full carpark in the center. Weird.  So went else where and found the Buffet. Plenty of waves coming...

Well, we are back on the Sand.  A weeks worth of waiting for the right part to be installed in to our car, followed by 3 days of rain really had the feet itching to get back to the beach and with the local crew. I have no idea whats been happening, but sounds like...

It's the last day of my christmas break from work, so we decided to make a meal of it. Put the call out, and headed to our recent magic spot. It was a little less magic than a few days ago, the wind was up, the crowds were up (it was Sunday after all) and within the...

The wind has turned, the once treasured places are swept into a frenzy and our journey this morning took us through 5 beaches looking for waves. We took a Yahtzee like gamble for the last beach we checked. By this time the kids have been in the car for an hour, so it...

Today could not have been more perfect... Ok, maybe an extra foot or two of swell. But the water was perfect. The sun was perfect. The temp was perfect.  What wasn't perfect was me forgetting my memory cards for my camera. So, all I had to shoot on was my drone....

This morning Ella and I were child free... there was no way I wasn't getting in the water, and the water was incredible. The warmest I may have ever swam in (not including Bali...geez). But my housing decided to fog up due to the heat... Something I have to work on. I...

Another stunner on the Coffs Coast. That wind was shakey. Northerly when we arrived, but had swung straight westerly, which will make the holiday goers happy with more beach to choose from.  The crowds were on where we were, and some more tense locals in the water. I...

Another morning, another ehhhh feeling. But again, I was put in my place as the waves got better (peaked around 9am) and the sun came out to play.  Lots and lots of bodies in the water to. Be mindful, be caring, and (to my wife mainly) don't run over people (yes, this...

When we rocked up this morning I had little hope. The skies were grey, there was a slight drizzle of rain, and at first glance, it didn't seem like much was going on wave wise.  90 mins later I stand corrected (I even posted a "meh" on my instagram stories). Ella...
