Does your surf photographer surf? Do he know what to look for? How to shoot it? When and where to go to find the best waves?
As the paying client, you should always ask to see a photographer's work before you commit to a session. This website serves as my "resume" in that aspect, and I hope to earn your trust in capturing that epic session! These days, it seems that everyone claims to be a "professional" surf photographer, and there are inexperienced posers everywhere claiming to be the real thing. Do you want to trust someone to capture your surf session who can't perform as well as he claims? Of course not. Always ask to see your photographer's portfolio.
Do you like what you see? Do you want pictures like these of you? It's easy. If you're interested in hiring me as your personal photographer, please don't hesitate to contact me via email at fotophilippe@yahoo.com and we can work out the arrangements. My rates are very inexpensive, especially considering that you are getting magazine-quality photos of you surfing perfect waves!
I take pride in what I do, which is make you look good, so if you're interested in professional photos to add to your portfolio, send to your sponsors, or simply hang on your wall to show off to your friends, contact me ASAP! I am also available at a moment's notice to chase an epic session anywhere in the world, whether it be down the road 1 kilometer or 500 kilometers to one of the infinite reefs, points & beachbreaks for every level of surfer, within beautiful Costa Rica or beyond!
In addition to straight photography, I offer local surf tour / photography trips, where we travel to and shoot the best location of that day based on swell direction, tide, winds, etc. to get the best possible photos in the best possible waves and conditions.
For beginners requiring conditions a little less challenging, I also offer surf lesson / photo package combos where we take you to the best beginner waves in the area and capture that memorable first ride on film! Don't miss out on the opportunity to capture the moment that changes your life, because surfing has been known to do that!
Thanks, and enjoy the photos...
