Yassine “Yazzy” Ouhilal is a highly respected name in the surfing community and his Halifax home has allowed for some remarkably unique surfing conditions growing up.
His career as a photographer has allowed him to capture the coastal communities around Nova Scotia, and even more desolate locations such as Scandinavia and the Arctic Circle, when the bulk of surf photography usually takes place in Hawaii, California and Australia.
His photographs have grazed the covers of countless magazines, and advertising giants like Eddie Bauer, Rip Curl, Quiksilver, Nike, Red Bull and Burton have used his artistic sight to front their advertising campaigns.
Recently he travelled back to the Arctic Circle with five world-class surfers for a full month to film his beautiful short film Arctic Surf:
