Swamis Beach, Southern California: one of my favorite waves to photograph. This day I shot with a fixed 50mm lens and it turned out to be the perfect lens to capture all the action. Photo: Cole Ferguson

I’m a 16-year-old surf and adventure photographer from Southern California. Living a close 2-minute walk from the beach, surf photography came natural to me. It all started out 4 years ago while I was taking photos with the family camera. From there on out the passion grew. I shoot water, landscapes, and portraits with Canon cameras and SPL waterhousings. I have a crazy passion for photo and video and I try to show it through my work. Here is a small selection of some of my favorite photos taken up and down the California Coast.
