Wakesurfing Photo Shoot

Save the memory by hiring us to photograph you wakesurfing. Book a professional wakesurfing photography shoot.

Have an upcoming wakesurfing lesson or competition that you want to save the memory with pictures? JH3 Surf Academy has you covered! We’re ready to photograph your best moments surfing an endless wave behind a boat.

Whether you’re wakesurfing with us, friends or family on Table Rock Lake, or traveling out of town to compete at a wakesurfing tournament, you can book a photo shoot with us to take high quality pictures.

Our talented photographers, Joe and Shannon Harris, are trained to shoot wakesurfers. Both can think and move quickly on a boat or from the shore to get the perfect movement shots in focus.

View their portfolio of Joey Harris photos and you’ll realize they have the eye and technical skill to capture wakesurfers expressing their raw emotion and intense concentration in dramatic poses. An enthusiasm for wakesurfing and sports photography elevates their status in a unique way.

Yes. For an extra $100, you can book a 1 hour photo shoot that includes 20 digital shots. Visit our Lessons page for package rates.

Absolutely. This is often the case when we photograph more than one family member wakesurfing.

Since you are entering into a contractual agreement deemed as a “work-for-hire”, you will own all ownership rights to your photos, including copyright. This allows you full control to use the photos as you wish.

After a photo shoot, we review all the RAW photos taken and pick only the best shots that don’t show closed eyes, shadow faces, poor lighting, blurry movements, etc. All photos you receive are high quality JPEG shots (no watermarks) that are suitable for print projects.

We aim to please by delivering you the best photos that we think you will love. But if you are still not happy, we can arrange to share with you the RAW photos taken during the photo shoot. If you see a photo that you like, we would be happy to make it available.

Within 5 business days after your photo shoot, we will email you a link to view and download your photos on Dropbox. You have up to 90 days before the link expires. You are not required to own or create a Dropbox account to view and download your photos.

If you need to cancel or reschedule your photo shoot, you need to contact us at least 7 days prior to the booking to avoid any lost fees. If we are able to fill your spot, we will issue a 100% refund.

The table below shows our refund fee schedule for guests who cancel prior to their scheduled photo shoot. Please understand these fees are necessary to cover our loss of time and revenue for the photo shoot slot not being filled.
