Heavy silence. January is already off to an insane start. This week marked my annual migration up here to shoot powerful swell. This is one of my favorite places to photograph waves because the options feel endless. All around the city there are different vantage points offering new ways to frame this raw power. On days like this I try to tell a full story instead of chasing single moments. By the end of the day I am cold tired and completely fried but proud of the images and grateful to witness it. What’s your favorite? 🌁

Dark north. Reminiscing on an early winter mission to Iceland in search for jaw dropping landscapes and surf a few years back. Nothing but good memories come flooding back to mind and will make for great stories to pass on one day. Like getting our van stuck multiple times and tow trucks rescuing us. Doors blown off vehicles from the howling wind. But also scoring beautiful waves. A humbling experience 🇮🇸
Dreaming with eyes open 👁️

Jungle vision. Wanted to share this piece made in collaboration with for the release of the X half last June in Costa Rica. We were deep in the jungle with pristine waves nearby. Very few people around and wildlife everywhere. Long days moving with the light and shooting between surf sessions. This project felt more like fun exploration than production. Proud of how this one turned out 🌴

Over 30 years in the making, Santa Cruz welcomes its first luxury beachfront property,! Take a peek at the beauty, the balance, the design, and the luxury this brand new hotel and spa brings to Santa Cruz.

Want to learn more? Read below on this highly anticipated Santa Cruz property.

HISTORICAL NOTE:
Following multiple decades of planning and development, La Bahia Hotel & Spa marks an historic first for the City of Santa Cruz while paying tribute to the provenance of the grounds themselves, where a small hotel once stood over a century ago. A series of architecturally distinctive touchpoints can be found throughout the grounds, and a lovingly preserved, original bell tower from 1926 topped with a vintage mermaid weathervane anchors one corner of the property.

DESIGN + CONCEPT:
Embracing the concept of joyspan, La Bahia features 155 rooms including 21 ocean view suites that overlook the Monterey Bay. Designed with a Spanish-Mediterranean flavor elevated by an Art Deco interior theme, the property encompasses one city block. Four distinct culinary concepts can be enjoyed onsite, and a Moorish spa deriving inspiration from the rich sea life that calls the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary home rounds out the guest experience.

Hello there. Since I have never done a proper introduction here it felt like time. I’m Daniel. A photographer and director based in Santa Cruz, CA.

I did not pick up a camera until I was 19. I fell in love immediately. What started as curiosity quickly turned into a way of seeing the world and slowing things down. I became drawn to places and landscapes that allowed me to explore the natural beauty around me.

Somewhere along the way this space grew to 300k. That still feels surreal to say out loud. I am incredibly grateful for your constant support. It truly makes this journey possible and allows me to keep creating the work I care about.

My approach emphasizes natural light and atmosphere. I focus on landscape, adventure, surf, travel, and hospitality. More than anything I try to capture how a place feels not just how it looks.

Thank you for being here and for following along. Let me know which photos are your favorites 🤍
Time and place. Some of my favorite coastal memories live here at. Stepping into this room always feels like entering a quiet moment held in wood and light. Architecture that invites you to slow down. Windows that frame the coastline like a moving painting. I am deeply grateful to have documented this property a couple of years in a row. One I feel lucky to return to 🛌
The ocean remembers everything 🌊
