I know what you’re thinking:
“Who’s Marcus Paladino?”
Well, he’s your cold-water king of surf photography. Through neoprene-stiff fingers and frozen eyelids, Marcus is dedicated to capturing high-performance surfing on the west coast of Canada. He lives for fractions of a second, but isn’t afraid to slow things down. A habitual homebody itching to get out of his comfort zone.
Surfing is the reason he wakes up in the morning.
But he's not the focal point. The endeavour of marathon swims in bone-chilling, heart-pounding conditions is irrelevant. What matters to him is what's in front of the lens: those split-second moments that most people don't even know exist, capturing them forever instead of letting them pass by.
