Found this shot in the archives last night. It was captured pre-session during the fires. Click through for the larger view.
Maggie Marsek has had quite a week. She’s had a birthday and has two photos in a show in Brazil called FestivAlma alongside photographers like Patrick Trefz, Jamie Brisick, David Pu’u and Sean Davey. It didn’t stop there though, her first print mag editorial feature came out the other day in Brazilian surf magazine Alma Surf and coolest of all, so did her first cover, also on Alma.
UPDATE: All photos curtisy of Jair Bortoleto, who conducted the interview and snagged a copy of the mag, for Maggie before they hit the streets. Thanks Jair!

The cover image is from a shoot at SanO with Alex Knost and crew. Their scene is funktified and colorful, which helped Maggie come away with tons of great photos from a morning of lousy surf. It took seeing it for me to think so, but I love that Alma went with it for the cover. Wet Suits, Damp Towels, surfboards and surfmobiles are usually a clutter that could never take the center stage. The combination of their scene and Maggie’s color and composition work transform a chaotic jumble of gear into a Rockwellesque painting of the core trappings of our lifestyle.
The interview (all in Portuguese) is long and chocked full of images Maggie has captured while enjoying the surf life in Socal and Baja. More photos after the jump…
Fires bring out the best in people.
Photos by the lovely Maggie Marsek taken on Monday the 22nd which seems like a week ago.
Maggie Marsek has a full spread editorial image in the new Surf Europe.
On my command, you must go buy every copy of the mag you can find… go.
Some of you may have noticed a banner on the blog in the last few weeks touting prints by 70’s favorite photographer Maggie Marsek. Unfortunately, I’m a bit too busy at the moment to get the 70 store up and running. I’m hoping I’ll get the time to straighten out the paper work in early 07. In the meantime, anyone still wanting to purchase prints, can email Maggie through her site.
Great photos over at totus-photo.com. EDIT: Sent to me by the guys at phoresia.org
Lopez, Rastavich, Malloys, Increadible Empty Waves and my favorite, “Below the Waves”. Check out the prints gallery. The one pictured here is 60$ matted. Low Tide Rising.

If you live in San Diego and the 180 hour stormsurf.com models are correct, the surf report for the next two weeks is as follows: small to micro.
If you've got one of these 10 foot plus Chris Christenson gliders in your quiver though, you won't even notice how small it is. Check the video footage in the VBS.tv on Chris as well.
I own a KMRP, and I'll vouch for both the shape and the construction method. When you combine the weight, how it surfs, and durability, it equals out to the best thruster I've ever owned.
Oh yeah, the FC site is new, but it's pretty effing bland.
