[@dreamlifephotography]

Always loved Brian's work.... really love his outlook on life, great clip!

[@AtortAerials]

Brian is a cool cat for sure! Stoked to have shot beside him a handful of times talking story simply hanging out with good friends. Aloha

Awesome documentary, truly inspirational as a photographer and the shot of the death barrel was just mind blowing.

[@Heineken6778]

Man he’s inspiring and have such a positive vibe

[@ericcooper4557]

Beautiful surfing photographs from a very down to earth person. I love the fact that right after high school, Brian with a few of his friends (with $200) left home to drive across country not knowing that his entire young life would change.

Does anyone know what he's rubbing on the silicone sealing of his housing at 13:55?

[@mattdimarino5894]

Personhaz it’s like Vaseline to prevent the o ring from drying out and cracking, resulting in leaks in the water housing
