WHO IS SHADY RACHEL?

Is she a disreputable woman with a reputation for immorality and promiscuity? Does she steal a man’s only spoon from his soup party? Is Shady Rachel a red hair wig and a paper cup of Mr. Chips chips?

No. She is none of those things. Shady Rachel is a quiet photographer and a visual raconteur, an amplifier of surfing stoke inspired by forward-thinking surfers who know the real secret in life is to, above all, have fun.

Shady Rachel is also a website, and you’re looking at it right now. Here you’ll find: photos from you surfing the west coast, photos taken of you surfing the east coast, more photos of you surfing, and of course—photos of you surfing.

Every single image is available to order in print or digital version should you want your moment of stoke kept alive in more that just your memory bank.
