A 3am alarm clock always feels wrong, but this was worth it.
Absolute ripper of a morning with Olympic Gold medalist and living legend @jessfoxcanoe out on the Nepean river.
We crammed a few heavy duty rigs (and some camera gear!) in a tinny built in ’79 originally designed for a couple of pygmy possums.
The tinny’s stability and max payload was inconsequential - we were focused, exhilarated, and we are all good swimmers.
On the starboard side I had literally the best in the business Spencer Frost, to the port side I had top dog Luke Rodely… and somewhere in there among us was my client and friend PJ who was patiently adhering to our excitable demands.

It was tricky keeping up with Jess, but nevertheless we did manage to capture stills and motion to help Sydney Water launch a campaign around water conservation.
Sydney Water’s campaign #saveitwithme, follows a series of unprecedented flood events which have left a shortage of treatable water.

Thanks Jess Fox, your preeminence in your sport is astounding and there wasn’t a bad frame on the camera. Special thanks to Spang, PJ and Megan who always put their (perhaps somewhat unguided) faith in me.
