I grew up in northern CA and have been diving, surfing, and climbing since I was very young. I started bringing a camera along for the experience in my late teens and early 20s, and ever since the focus of my adventures has shifted from photography as a byproduct to being the central purpose. Fortunately, it appears that the best shots come from living the most incredible experiences, and I have found the journey and the resulting photographs to be a symbiotic relationship.
