This is Bryce Kanights at China Banks in 1986 in SF. That's my wife sitting on the bench wearing a beret. Bryce is one of the best skate photographers in the world, you may have seen his photos in Thrasher back in the day. He still shoots and skates and is turing 50 this week. Happy Birthday Bryce.

Anthony Acosta Skateboard Photography


Anthony Acosta is one of the best skate photographers out there and he also rips on a skateboard.
He's one of the young guns that I turn to when I have a photo question, he's got it down.
