Wave Pacific

Capturing the splendor and power of Mother Nature's storm waves presents its own set of challenges. Climbing cliffs in torrential rains and strong winds to find the perfect composition, while simultaneously holding on for dear life, may not have been the wisest decision. However, I was able to achieve my goal of photographing the waves differently than I had ever seen them before, with the added bonus of returning to safety from a location that not many would imagine attempting to visit.
"Wave Pacific" is an ongoing series which keeps me returning to the Oregon Coast to capture the unique beauty of the ocean.
In the last few years, Scott has received recognition and awards including The Fence, PDN Magazine, San Francisco International Photography Exhibition, International Conservation Photography Award ( ICP), Critical Mass Finalist, Communication Arts Photography Awards, The Drawers at Blue Sky Gallery, The Center for Fine Art Photography, front covers of B&W Magazine 2014 Single Image and 2015 Contest Winners’ issues, First Place in both “Abstract & Silhouette” 2015 La Grande International Photography Awards and First Place “Still Life” 2016 B&W Spider Awards.
