Meet Zak
Professional Surf Photographer & Coach

Zakaria Radmi
Welcome to Hippy Happy Swell! I'm a passionate photographer, surfer and coach, born and raised by the ocean. Since I started, I've always had a passion for images, movement and emotions. Today, I'm lucky to live between these three worlds — capturing real moments, sharing knowledge and motivating others to step out of their comfort zone.
Through photography, I seek to reveal the energy, personality, and unique light of each person. I have my own vision of the image: natural, spontaneous, full of vibes. I love photographing people in action, in connection with the sea, or simply in their element.
As a coach, I help those who want to learn to surf, progress technically, but also reconnect with themselves and the ocean. Because yes, catching your first wave isn't just a matter of technique — it's also a story of confidence, sensations, listening. I work as much on technique as on the mental and feeling aspects.
