ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHER

A naturalist photographer for over thirty years, Scott Price's work has appeared internationally in or on the cover of numerous books or publications.

Known worldwide for his ocean wildlife photography and for his wave portraiture, and emulated by many, he strives to capture the natural color and texture of breaking ocean swells. An intimate knowledge of the ocean and its moods is a prerequisite for recording these images, and Scott prefers to film from the water. His unique photographic techniques led him into the field of action photography systems. He developed lightweight, high impact underwater camera housings to meet his needs, and these housings became the standard of professionals the world over. They are no longer available to the public.

The photographs of the SEVEN SURFING DOLPHINS, INDIGO WAVE, and SOLAR GOLD WAVE were taken with one of these camera housings. The photographs presented on this web site were the result of years of experience, timing, patience, and being at the right place at the right time. All of Scott's photographs are taken under authentic wildlife conditions. Absolutely no digital manipulation is used.

To seize the moment of the SEVEN SURFING DOLPHINS, Scott had to make the most of the seven shots left on the roll of film in the camera. The photograph was number thirty-seven, the very last frame on the roll.

Scott's future plans include an interest in the California Brown Pelican, filming both from the beach and from the water. Macro[close- up] flower photography, scenic panoramic photography, videos, more surfing dolphin photography [he has the most extensive collection in the world], wave portraiture and a continuing commitment to capture the most intimate details of nature on film.
