Watch: Stephanie Gilmore In Africa Shot By Morgan Maassen

One of Stab‘s dearest co-conspirators over the ages, Morgan Maassen likes to drop in occasionally, and mostly unannounced—whether slipping into our LA offices on a weekday drive-by, or into our inboxes on the eve of a long Holiday weekend.

Without exception, we’re thrilled.

So today it was with that same enthusiasm we greeted a note in our inbox, titled simply: “Stephanie Gilmore In South Africa.” 

While working on commercial projects during the South African stop on the World Tour, MM kept his lens firmly fixed on his favorite subject, Miss Gilmore, as she dazzled on Jeffreys walls.

Dear Jeffreys is one helluva catwalk.

We get the sense that a lady of Steph’s calibre doesn’t have many “one’s that got away.”

Picturesque: unusual and vivid, visually attractive, especially in a quaint or pretty style.
