Capturing a quality action shot of a surfer requires great reflexes and perfect timing. Every wave is different, so you need to be able to adjust quickly and be prepared for the unexpected. This I am learning daily...
I took a leap and moved to Costa Rica a few months ago and now I'm spending most of my days taking photos of amazing surfers. This is a whole different world than what I was used to, a world filled with world-class waves and athletes on some of the most amazing beaches the world has to offer.
So far, my time here has been a great learning experience. I spend hours in the ocean and in the sand, getting battered by the waves, so I can get that perfect shot. I've gained invaluable knowledge and skills, and hope to keep improving in this craft.
Photography is a challenging profession, but it's also incredibly rewarding. When I look at the photos I've taken, I'm filled with pride and a profound sense of satisfaction. I am so in love with surf photography and plan to make this a huge part of my professional career.
I hope you enjoy this vlog!

Great shots brother, I really like your work. One of the very few vlogs I've actually enjoyed! I'm on the west coast of Mexico and this area has a bit of surfing but is world class skimboard country. The bay where I live is a stop on the SkimUSA tour as well as a stop for a couple of Mexican tours. While I am not shooting professionally, I think we live somewhat similar lives, and like you, I have nothing to complain about. Keep up the great work!

Nice work hermano! I'm binge watching surf photography vids ahead of my upcoming return to CR and can not wait. Should you find your way down south in Dominical look me up. I will be spending the next 6 months surfing and/ or shooting in water surf photos. Pura Vida.

Cool photos man! I'm literally in a similar position because I've also just got into surf photography/videography and can't wait for the season to start again soon. I'm also using a Fujifilm camera and lens myself (X-T4 and XF70-300). You have the XH-2S and XF100-400 right? Would like to know your prefered autofocus settings. For me, I started action photography using Zone AF, but I've started using Single Point more and I fell it's probably better for both photo and video regarding surf. Is that what you use?
@cape2costa
@cape2costa 10 месяцев назад
Exactly bro. That’s what I use outside and inside the water. Thanks for the nice words!

Hello man! This was a great video! Im starting with surf photography, and of 100 photos maybe I have 10 with good focus. Im trying lot of different things to solve the problem. Could you tell me, if you want of course, how do you set your AF ? Thanks!!
@cape2costa
@cape2costa Год назад
Hey bro. Sure. What camera are you using? A few things, use “C” for continuous autofocus and make sure your shutter speed is high enough to stop motion. Usually I shoot higher than 1/1000th depending on the light, sometimes as high as 1/8000th. You want to use a setting that will track your subject. I shoot Fuji cameras so I can really only help with the settings for them, however let me know what set up you are using and I’ll try and help!

@@cape2costa Thanks man!! I have a Canon 7DMKII. I never think of use a higher shutter speed than 1250, I ll try it! I have it in AF, Shutter speed 1/1250s, f/6.3, ISO AUT, Al Servo, priority to focus, then in Canon I use a Case -2, 1, 1. To focus I use 1 point and four around. At first my goal in surf photography is have the surfer of course and a good part of the wave in focus. I m thinking on use a f/8 for example or leave it in automatic as well just with Shutter speed priority. Thanks man, really!

@@MisterBerrys honestly f/5.6 will keep a good portion of the surfer and wave in focus depending on what lens you use (focal length). Good luck, hope it works!
