The Whales are Coming!

Have you seen this video of our baby whale encounter last winter? Breathtaking footage of a newborn baby gray whale off the coast of California was captured by Steve Munch. We are so excited that he will be spending the winter on the island of Kauai to photograph the humpbacks this year!!! Keep tuned in for those images and video coming soon!

Newborn Baby Gray Whale Near Anacapa Island

A rare encounter with a newborn baby gray whale this past week left us in awe as we watched it learn to swim and frolic in the water with its mother. Judging from its size and swimming ability, we figure it was only hours old…days at most.


As wildlife and nature photographers, we spend many hours searching, observing and waiting for the right moment, lighting, composition, etc.  This was a day when all the stars aligned and we were there, ready to capture it. The only thing to overcome at that point is the excitement and adrenaline knowing that we have something very special happening in front of us. That is when we are grateful for all the preparations we have made to be ready for the moment. It is fun for us to share the beauty we see that many cannot ever see first hand.
