Simone Reddingius Maui Surf Photographer

Simone Reddingius, Maui Hi: Surf Photographer & Great Surfer! I’ve enjoyed getting to know Simone and her long time passion. She is fun to surf with and loves to capture exciting shots of her favorite lifetime sport! Simone is also expanding her work to breath taking sunsets and exploring the world of underwater photography. She rips! Look for Simone on the water or on the cliffs or beaches, getting all the hot shots! Suzie

Simone also recently shared we with me this awesome feature story on Jetty Girl, an online surf magazine. Titled: Eighties Ladies: A Special 1980’s Photo Feature by Simone Reddingius http://www.jettygirl.com/features/simone.reddingius.html ( full story!)

Peak into the Jetty Girl Feature Story :

“Having discovered surfing in 1980 or so, I had my share of childhood surfing heroes …Cheyne Horan, Tom Curren, Martin Potter and Tom Carroll to name a few. Each wall of my room was decorated with photos of my favorite surfers …all of them cut out from Surfer, Surfing and Breakout Magazines. Unlike most of my peers though, I was also fond of women’s surfing. Across from my Cheyne Horan and Tom Curren walls and right to the left of my Cheryl Ladd poster was the Kim Mearig section of my room, buoyed by an autographed black and white 8×10 photo of Kim that I received at the old Huntington Surf Theatre”

Fast forward about three decades…Chris Grant writes:

While perusing Facebook one afternoon, I came across the most incredible collection of early 80’s surf photos by Simone Reddingius. Everyone was present…Cheyne, Pottz, both TC’s and a whole bunch incredible women from one of the most unique and colorful eras in modern surfing. 4X ASP World Champ Frieda Zamba, 1983 ASP World Champ Kim Mearig, Jorja and Jolene Smith, Alisa Schwarzstein, Tricia Gill, Rell Sunn, Liz Benavidez, Jodie Cooper, 1990 ASP World Champ Pam Burridge, 1982 ASP World Champ Debbie Beacham and a host of 70’s legends…all presented in glorious Kodachrome color.

“Among the things I love to shoot are surfing, windsurfing and soon kiting; with a focus on the women that grace the face of the waves. Since being a long time surfer myself, I have some insight to know when to snap the photo. I would like to expand my photography to other areas like natural light portraits,”
