Our photo shoots are always a highly anticipated and welcomed change of pace for the Outerknown squad. For us, it is an opportunity to break in the upcoming collection while getting out of Los Angeles for a short time. This year, we elected to fly south, choosing the coast of Oaxaca, Mexico as our landing place. After hours of filing travel documents and meticulously packing cameras, boardshorts, and more, a compact squad of Outerknown team members and friends of the brand set out for the six-day getaway.

Oaxaca did not disappoint, supplying an abundance of fun waves, natural beauty, new friends, and hotter-than-anticipated temperatures. The days were long but were capped off by evenings of flowing drinks and captivating tales. It was an all-around good time and the team brought back the photos to prove it.
