This is Kolohe Andino exactly one year ago at my house. He was scoring all the good ones. He said it was his first time there and this is one of the waves he got. Photo By: Damian Davila

This is somewhere in Central America. A couple of years ago I got the privilege to work with VISSLA for their spring catalog. I got to shoot some of their best riders in some epic surf! Photo By: Damian Davila

This is my awesome friend, Henry scoring a nice one just out in front of our houses. We know this spot like the palm of our hand, so if anything good is coming in, we are there scoring! He is a charger! Photo By: Damian Davila

This is the view of the end of the street from my house. I'm so lucky and thankful to have grown up in this house. I miss it right now so much because I just moved to Europe with my wife, because I wanted to explore new spots and expand my photography. Photo By: Damian Davila

This is the sunrise in San José del Cabo in Baja Sur Mex. I was part of the crew for the "Cabo Freak Fest," an all Bodyboarding event, and I got to shoot really awesome sunrises with beautiful colors. Photo By: Damian Davila

This is Josh Kerr at my home break in Baja Norte. I remember him sending me a text to see if I wanted to shoot with him. So I met up with him next morning and we scored really awesome barrels. It was awesome working with such and epic surfer and humble person. Photo By: Damian Davila

My friend Mark McNaught has been a charger since the 70s! He is a pioneer in coming down to Baja and especially to my town. So this was like piece of cake for him, and I was lucky enough to be there to capture the moment of him right about to get into a huge barrel. Photo By: Damian Davila

This is my good friend (and DK legend) Manny Vargas. He was a charger in the 90's and he's still charging! He goes on the biggest barrels and arms spread all the time just making my job easier to take a nice photo. I remember calling him a night before letting him know it was going to be good next day and this is what we were scored! Photo By: Damian Davila

Again, my friend Mark McNaught. He is like 50 years old and charges like if he was a teenager! He's always putting on an awesome show and I'm so glad to be there to capture his moments. Photo By: Damian Davila

This was a fun day in the winter season in Baja. Rvery time there's offshore winds you know it's gonna be good. So I just go swimming for hours and start shooting, and I know I'm going to score something. Photo By: Damian Davila

This is at the famous "Mexican Pipeline" in Puerto Escondido. A few years ago, I went with a couple of friends for like a month and we score epic waves all 30 days! Photo By: Damian Davila

This was shoot on a big day around my town during the Hurricane Marie. I shot this when I was going home. Earlier, I was in the water and it was kind of heavy duck diving some huge whitewash. Photo By: Damian Davila

Also another sunrise in Baja Sur. I love this place. It's so beautiful to shoot. Warm water, barrels, awesome people... what else can I ask for? Photo By: Damian Davila
Editor’s Note: A These shots were taken by Damian Davila from Baja, Mexico. Damian’s captions for each photo really make you feel the shot and understand Damian’s passion for what he does. It’s a really nice touch to bring to a photo gallery like this.
I don’t shoot that much from land. I’d rather be in the action, swimming and getting a much different perspective than I would from land. I shoot most of the time water with an Aquatech housing and Canon 5D mark III. I hope you enjoy!
