Meet surf photographer Zak Noyle (Via clubofthewaves)


Watch this great short film about Hawaiian surf photographer Zak Noyle by The Surf Channel. Based on the Hawaiian island of Oahu, Zak spends countless hours in the water, creating dramatic imagery and artful interpretations of the world’s most magnificent ocean environment.
Watch the video below:

A few of Zak’s favourite shots:

'Steep & Deep' - Billy Kemper stands tall in Pipeline at sunset. Photo by Zak Noyle
I love it when it’s glowing green and the surfer is a silhouette. That’s one of my favourite types to shoot. Nowadays it’s changing, I can put my ISO very high and be shooting almost in the dark. It’s so exciting for technology to progress like that and see what we can do with that.

When I’m out in the water, I try to get as close as possible and get a different angle. You’re watching the surfer coming down the face of the wave, how the wave is breaking, where you are, what the currents doing… There are so many different elements that your calculating and putting together of where you need to be to get that perfect shot. I don’t consciously do it, it’s just after years of doing this it’s all kinda come together for me luckily.

I think okay, the wave is going to close-out, I can still get inside of the barrel, or, this isn’t going to be a good one, so I dive under. Going under the wave, you can get sucked over, or caught inside. I think it’s so much fun to get caught, and be out in the waves. That’s where I want to be. I’d rather be there than on land shooting. It’s right there in the action, it’s non-stop to me, and a great work out.

One of my favourite images is from Tahiti, with a rainbow going from land to barrel. It doesn’t look real, but it was just one of those special afternoons when I was shooting fisheye and I saw this rainbow appear, so I moved back out so I could the whole land and rainbow in one image.

My image of all the trash in Indonesia… There were these waves of trash coming through… It got to a point where it was so overwhelming, there was every kind of trash debris…

Shooting the OB Pier… POV style of course! (Via hostevie.com)



I’ve wanted to make this video for a while now.
Last year was the first time I’ve ever shot a pier (if you’re new, “shooting” a pier means you surf under/through it), and it was a big adrenaline rush!
It’s honestly not a very difficult thing to do, but there can be heavy consequences if you mess up. The pilings are made of concrete, which hurts, but the barnacles on the pilings will add to the destruction if you fall.
So Ian and I started the new year right, and headed to the Ocean Beach pier in San Diego. I love competitions, so we decided to see who could shoot the pier the most times.
I might have had an unfair advantage, with my 40 liters of volume on the Couch Potato, and Ian only had his shortboard. Either way, I think I made it through the pier 7 times, and Ian only got 3.
What pier should we shoot next?

  • Couldn’t be more proud of a project. I had the pleasure of working with Dillon Perillo and Brendon Gibbens on our short film “The Dill & Beeg Project”. We travelled to more than 6 countries in 10 months and scored some incredible waves. I hope you enjoy this movie as much as i enjoyed filming it.

It's not very often that I get pictures of me riding my longboard...



I'm stoked I was at the right place at the right time and got my picture taken by David -3 Dog! I saw this guy swimming around with a GoPro and he was just as happy to be out in the surf as I was. He said his name is David -3 Dog and I thought that was pretty cool! He took a few pictures of me and said that he would email me if I gave him my email address (which I did).

Of course I was think no way is this guy going to remember my email address and send me pics, but sure enough he did! So we got to talking and this is what I found out:

    (NoBadTides) How long have you been shooting water shots?
 (David -3 Dog) Been shooting water shots for just over 2 years...when my boss sent me a GoPro for a bonusI get so much joy out of being in the water...with my old body, it takes the pressure off my joints and when waves roll over my back...free massage!

    (NoBadTides) What type of equipment do you use?
 (David -3 Dog) GoPRO HERO 4 SILVER AND HERO 3+ on wristmount, maskmount and bobber pole

    (NoBadTides) Where do you like shooting the most? (local only?)
 (David -3 Dog) Local only...Burnout.  Where you saw me is where I be!

    (NoBadTides) How much do you charge for a session?
 (David -3 Dog) I would like to set up sessions with people...that would be awesome.  No charge...just donate to a dog rescue or homeless food bank...somethin like that.

    (NoBadTides) Whats the best way for someone to set up a surf session / water photo session with you? 
 (David -3 Dog) Email me or message me on IG I guess...I work from home so I can do early morning sessions...Nothing over 8 foot!  lol
