This was a memorable encounter. Not because of how close the shark was to the kids but because when I walked a mile to the beach to show them the footage, they went right back in! | The Malibu Artist

Two years ago this week, I released a research paper that included just one minute of nearly 20 minutes of footage I captured of an extremely unique white shark. Here are a few more seconds of that remarkable shark. - Co-authored with Dr. Phil Sternes, we proposed two hypotheses: This was a newly born white shark, or An extremely young shark exhibiting an undocumented skin condition. Both possibilities represented novel observations and warranted inclusion in the scientific record. - When the pa

This is one of the wildest things I've filmed. While it is hard to watch, this is unfiltered nature. This is the circle of life in action. Sharks are cleaners of the ocean, often taking the weak and injured and helping to keep balance in the system. They help prevent disease and are vital to maintaining the overall health of the environment. Moments like this, as brutal as it can be, are vital. This dolphin was likely already hurt or sick when the four white sharks ate. It was devoured completel

Gliding over a whale shark. Saw this one on our very first day during our Sea of Cortez Photography Immersion last month. If you want to join me next year on a photo expedition aboard a yacht, the dates are March 30th to April 6th. If you just want to experience it and not be focused on photography, you can reserve a spot as well. We have 10 or 11 spots available. | The Malibu Artist

A recent yet common scene in Southern California. Taken a few weeks ago, this juvenile white shark and surfer seemingly had quite a bit of interest in each other. - Many water goers are getting very comfortable with sharks nearby. However, it's wise to remember, they are wild animals that can be unpredictable. - In my latest YouTube video (launched today), we take a look at the recent study by @csulbsharklab & @pat_t_rex conducted using drones to evaluate human/shark interactions.

Here's the latest great white I filmed off our coast in Southern California this week. I tracked this shark for 23 miles as it was cruising swiftly just 200 yards off shore. I also followed this shark LIVE on my YouTube channel. Make sure to subscribe to catch my Live feeds. This is around an estimated 17 foot white shark. | The Malibu Artist

One of many beautiful things we witnessed on my Sea of Cortez Photo Immersion this year was this absolutely enormous whale shark. Being next to one really gives you some perspective. - If you'd like to join me for next year's adventure, check the link in my bio or send me a DM. This is a free dive and snorkel trip for anyone who wants to experience the "aquarium of the sea". | The Malibu Artist

In all my time filming sharks from above. I've only seen this once. A few sharks completely devoured this dolphin in 18 minutes. It's pretty telling how the largest of the sharks got priority in the line. Size is everything. The people on the boat, the two women and the two men, had a front row seat. I never connected with them to see their footage. - Today, I'm headed up to northern California to work with some researchers studying some of the largest sharks in the Pacific. Can't wait to see wh

One of the biggest sharks I've seen near our coast. Hanging about 100 yards off shore. It's undoubtedly an adult. Likely in the 16-17 foot range. Notice how thick that head is. This one has a very unique dorsal fin as well. | The Malibu Artist

I've said many times before, that my favorite footage to capture is not shark footage with humans in the frame. Although the media loves human encounters, the nature lover in me enjoys the stuff sharks do without us around. It also usually takes much more patience to capture, especially in southern California where so many humans are around sharks. Things can be learned from both, don't take this message the wrong way, but filming white sharks doing shark things with other species is easily my f

Of all the human activities I film on the water, it's the kayak fishermen that have white sharks near them more than any other activity. At least by my observation. It's quite amazing to see so many sharks nearby sometimes. Usually, most folks kayaking have no idea they are near a very big fish! | The Malibu Artist

This is an incredible stand off between a Tiger Shark and a Sea Turtle. I had no idea turtles could be so fast. This is the first drone footage of a tiger shark predation attempt on the island of Fernando De Noronha, Brazil. I’m currently working with scientists like @biarangel.sharks on the island to learn more about the tiger sharks there. Once thought to be seasonal, there is now data showing the sharks might be there year round. - Observing the tiger sharks and their method of attack was pre

This family huddled together as a curious great white shark circles a couple times. The shark eventually just lost interest and left. Negative shark encounters are rare and sharks are very curious creatures. But it's only through natural and unforced encounters that we can actually learn about sharks behaviors'. - This was a completely natural occurrence and not forced and nobody tried to touch the shark, unlike many videos I see flooding social media these days unfortunately. | The Malibu Artis

I didn't see many sharks today, but persistent searching often pays off. I found this one just before sunset. It has a fresh boat prop strike injury. While not as severe as others I have seen, it still amazes me how many sharks actually get struck by boats. And no, this isn't a post against boating. It is merely an observation. :-) | The Malibu Artist

I've not seen a great white in about five weeks. I've been filming sharks in the southern hemisphere for a while, but yesterday, upon my return to Southern California I found a large white shark cruising from the Santa Monica Pier area all the way north past the Malibu Pier! This is a large shark, full of battle scars, and seemingly just cruising north. Personally, I find it quite amazing to see such a large shark in late December here but it's not really surprising. - You can see more footage s
