ERIC WITTKOPF
PHOTOGRAPHER
BIO
An @Ocean Photography Awards finalist and @Irish Surf Film Festival finalist, Eric collaborates with leading action and sports brands like Red Bull, YETI, and CrossFit, bringing powerful stories to life.
A waterman, athlete, and Creative Director, Eric is driven by his passion for sport, nature, and compelling design. Living in two worlds—behind the camera and in the heart of the action—he is always in touch with the elements he loves. Eric tells stories about the people around him and the passions they share, bringing these to life with a creative vision that blends design and storytelling. For him, capturing moments isn't just about taking the shot; it's about immersing himself in the experience and truly living it. Using photography, videography, drones, and his design expertise, he creates immersive visuals that elevate the narrative and resonate deeply.
Since 2016, Eric has been returning to Nazaré, the mecca of big wave surfing. He is drawn by the awe-inspiring waves and the deep connections he has formed with the local community, and he now calls many there his friends.
