The two things I love more than a catch n cook with good mates? When one is a Superyacht chef and turns cockles into a full on Mexican fiesta, and the second is when that Superyacht chef’s Aunty lives around the corner and has a vege garden not dissimilar to some kind of plant Narnia 😍🌱🥦🥕

Me filming // my POV 🎥 🦈

18/02/2022

Stoked to announce our short documentary “Wāhine & Waves” is part of the official selection in Aotearoa Surf film festival this year 🥳🥳🥳
It’s been a hard slog over the past 5 years but it’s finally ready (enough, lol I don’t think documentaries are ever ready as they keep evolving!) for the eyes of the Aotearoa community 😍
First stop of the tour is in my homeland Napier in two weeks on the 2nd March, so round up the crew and come see Aotearoas FIRST all-female surf film on the big screen (I’ll be hiding and cringeing in the back every time my face appears) 😅😵‍💫 but I’d LOVE to see you there.
Watch as we manage to reunite the gurf crew for a week-long roady during two cyclones on both coasts, with plenty of adventure and peppered with kiwi roady banter of course.
This dream wouldn’t have been made possible without the insane skills of the crew and the support of who bring art and surfing together for a nationwide tour.
Tag your gurf crew, share the love, and I can’t wait to meet you all 🧡

“I was terrified, not for motherhood or birth or my relationship with the ocean personally, but for my job and my career. If your job requires you to dive and you can’t, what use are you?.. To be honest it was a really hard thing to navigate emotionally and professionally, and one I’m still struggling with now in my second pregnancy..”

“..For a couple of years I felt a little lost.. after having our first, the love and fire has reignited in me and since then I have re-connected with my whakapapa in Northland and have found that deep love and energy for the ocean again..”

Oh haayyyy! 👋🏽 It’s been a VERY slow crawl out of my velvet blue cave over Summer, but after a much needed rest, I’m (finally!) SO looking forward to 2022. During the break I like to put my camera down & fully reset but always get urges to create and film some stock footage, plus little snippets to share with those of you who perhaps don’t have access to the ocean like we do so we can connect you to it too 🧡 This year ahead for me is all about film and community, and of course, continuing to inject my socially conscious and slightly adventurous (😏) lens into advertising campaigns with the crew
Anyway, if you’ve made it this far (thanks, lol) here’s what’s been filling up our cup over the past few weeks..
Footage is a mixture of my POV from the .nz R5 while testing out my new housing, and chur to my homie/husband for the BTS on the

Our 30’s. The world has told you you’re supposed to find him/her, some kind of partnership. It’s your belief that you’re supposed to be already at a finish line and you don’t even know where the race started or that there is one, and you’re racing against yourself. Thirties are brutal and also wonderful, it’s so strange.

My project, Hapū, is all about the mental and physical journeys we go through as ocean women and the sacrifices we make in pregnancy and motherhood and how hard it all is to navigate. We are women who’s entire being is made up of time spent in and around the ocean whether it be recreational, business, sport, gathering kaimoana; how does that all look when the challenges of having a pēpi come into play? How does it feel?
The end result will be an exhibition & a coffee table book with a small story from each wāhine accompanied by ocean based portraits and it will hopefully serve as a guide and some comfort for other women going on their own Hapū adventures.
Please email [email protected] if you think you’d like to be a part of it, I’d love to hear your story 🧡 thanks so much to everyone so far for your openness and vulnerability about such personal stories. I was moved to tears today by one in particular (happy & sad) and can’t wait for borders to loosen to keep meeting you 🧡
