Kelly is the man behind many of the tour’s most iconic images over the past 12 years and is the current WSL Digital Imaging Manager.

For someone whose favourite time of year is when surf events come to the East Coast of Australia so he can spend all day working on his photography with pro surfers in the water, you can imagine how excited he was to ask questions to a man who does it as his full-time job.

Kelly’s story is one of hard work and humility. From putting his work out for constructive feedback, to then going and working on that feedback and re-knocking on doors until his opportunities started to come along.

Kelly was, for many years, the lead photo manager for the WSL World Surf League and has spent most of his shooting career around surf sports and lifestyle.
