From Kona on the Big Island of Hawaii, Sarah Lee is incessantly glued to camera viewfinders, DaFiNs, and the sea. Her passion for photography, particularly underwater and surf photography was shaped by a childhood where she was constantly playing in and around the ocean. As a long-distance swimmer and surfer, her strength as an athlete in the ocean and tide allows her to capture swimmers and surfers in the special way she does beneath the sea.
“My aim in making photos is to capture and accentuate the beauty in what surrounds me. Photography to me is a mode of visual problem solving and a way to perpetuate the stoke, whether it be above the surface or below.”
Lately, Sarah has been involved in shooting photo and video content for Alison’s Adventures. Go check it all out on www.alisonsadventures.com.
Currently, she is located in Newport Beach, California, attending Chapman University where she is majoring in Film Production with an emphasis in Documentary.
Sarah's work was recently featured on ESPN's 2019 Body Issue featuring Santa Barbara Surfer Lakey Peterson
