Chris Burkard Instagram – As long as I can remember, holding a camera in my hand, it was a dream to be a staff photographer for Surfer Magazine. My years spent shooting for these publications were truly an honor and profoundly shaped the direction of my career and perspective in storytelling. During my tenure, the epitome of success was getting a cover and I look at those covers as some of the highlight moments of my life… This short piece paying tribute to some really iconic and influential magazines was a walk down memory lane for me – making me relive some of those little moments.. it’s super meaningful to be featured here and the book that my friend @grantellis1 put together is pretty special & an incredible way to see the evolution of surfing & photography over the years… @inherentbummer @jack_flosston Starring: Grant Ellis Boy: Scotty Boston Director: Jack Boston Producers: Travis Ferre, Brandon Guilmette Cinematography: Michael Enos, Drew Kass Gaffer: Andy Haney First AC’s: Rease Warford, Vinny Mauro Sound: Dave Medez Line Producer: Phillip Dillon Grip: Matt Kubas Graphics: Scott Chenoweth Red Bull: Colleen Conroy, Josh Saunders, Joe Guay
