Last year it was his fresh approach in Hawaii that caught our eye. And throughout the year he’s continued to amaze and baffle us simultaneously with his awe of the world around him and ability to get the wildest shots at the least likely of times. Quinn Matthews is a shy, unassuming, extremely green but ridiculously talented photographer. He’s been initiated by the road over the past year and he’s putting in the long hours on the North Shore once again. We plucked these 15 as a teaser. And be sure to check back later to hear about (and check the results) of his swim at massive Pipeline.
