 Name: Sacha Specker DOB: 25/08/83 Born and raised in Cape Town, I grew up on the beach and started riding a surfboard when I was 11 years old. After about 2 years, I got into bodyboarding and followed a career in Bodyboarding ever since. Travelling the globe in search of waves and competitive results my memories consisted of golden moments depicting heaving slabs infold onto West Australian reefs and backwashes turning 8 foot Pipeline bombs into 12 foot mutants.  In 2007 I decided that I wanted to become a water photographer to capture all these experiences, which lead to me purchasing a housing. With only a water housing in hand, I was forced to follow through and buy a camera and lens, which was the beginning to my infatuation and utter addiction to photography, especially in the water. My biggest influences have been guys like Caleb Bjergfelt, Lance Slabbert, Ted Grimbeau, Scott Aichner, Ray Collins, Chris van Lennep and Tungsten (Erick Regnard). Of course without the support and understanding of my girlfriend Rosy, my path would undoubtably be taking me a different way. She is the one who has to live with me and keeps supporting. As we all know this is a task on its own, since photographers are not normal people. Over and Out! Spex  |
