These photographs were taken by me during the filming of Attractive Distractions; Take Shelter Productions’ newest feature film. It features a devoted group of talented surfers including: Albee Layer, Matt Meola, Clay Marzo, John John Florence, Kai Barger, Chippa Wilson, Nic Von Rupp, Ricardo Christie, Dege O’Connell, Torrey Meister, Ryan Hipwood, Hank Gaskell, and Tyler Larronde. If these photos tickle your fancy – and I know they do – get the full version of Atrractive Distractions, now available on iTunes.
