Another fun year at the Rell Sunn Menehune event at Makaha.  Spending time as a family and good friends.  The video highlights the kids from Halau Nalu surf club and the photos below are a few of the other participants, including Rell Sunn’s grandson in the yellow jersey.  Also a special shout out to Kumu  Ka’iulani for hooking us up with a place to stay and for helping with the kids in the water.

RELL SUNN MENEHUNE CONTEST : MAKAHA HAWAII SURF PHOTOGRAPHY

This last weekend I took the family to the Rell Sunn Menehune contest at Makaha on the west side of Oahu.  We had an incredible time and saw some amazing surfers.  The contest was for kids from 4 to 12, it was crazy to see these kids charge waves that were at lest twice their height.  I really love being a surf/ water photographer,  during the contest  I was able to be in the water with the kids and shoot them up close, I also got a few shots from the beach with my telephoto lens.  A big congratulations to Jordan, she got 5th place in her age division, that is a huge accomplishment for how big the waves were that she  had to surf.  She is in the seventh picture down.
