Summer, beach - top view

American Gray Malin loves sunbathing on the beach. He embodied his love for sand and sea in a large-scale photo project À la Plage. The photographer traveled across America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia to photograph the world's most beautiful coastlines from above.

Dallas resident Gray Malin worked in marketing for a long time, but always had a love for photography. The turning point in his life came when he left Paramount Pictures and started his own photography company in Los Angeles.

Gray Malin believes that the beach is the best place to relax. In his project À la Plage, he explored the theme of human recreation and the organization of coastal space. To do this, Malin climbed to a bird's eye view and from there photographed the most popular beaches in the world. Dream job - there's no other way to put it!
