Photos of the Watermen    ::    Phillip Colla Natural History Photography

I've enjoyed spending time in the water and among waves for 30 years and consider it a privilege to share the water with you.  If there is a photograph of you on this website that you want removed, please say so and it will be taken off as quickly as possible (as in a few minutes).  If you simply want me to remove any mention of the location or keep the break quiet, let me know and it will be done.  (I only mention a break if it is so well known already that it is impossible to keep secret, but I certainly respect your wish to keep your break quiet, so let me know.)  If you want me to add your name to the caption, or remove your name, let me know.  If you want a digital image for personal use only, one that you take to Costco and make a print from, contact me and we'll get it to you.  If you want an actual print, I'm happy to make one for you provided that you are the guy in the photograph or its your buddy. Contact me and we'll get it sent out, I will need to charge you only for shipping.  I am a professional editorial and stock photographer specializing primarily in wildlife and underwater photographs. Surf photography, while not my main focus, is an avenue of photography that I enjoy and pursue with passion. I'm happy to share the photos with the guys who are actually in them.  If you need an image on this website for your portfolio to show to sponsers, let me know and we'll get you what you need. Better yet, have your sponsor contact me and I will arrange to get the image to them in high resolution and I can take of clearing licensing rights so that it can be used in advertisements, etc.  In any event, just contact me by email or phone and let me know what's up if you want a photo by email, a print or you want me to make a change to the site regarding a photograph of you.  Thanks, aloha and see you in the water.
