Why Work with a Professional?

If you’re interested in having portraits made that are unique and beautiful, consider underwater photography. I’m a photographer who’s experienced in underwater portraiture and can help you achieve beautiful portraits of yourself and your loved ones that are outside of the traditional portrait setting. When I schedule underwater portraits, it’s generally for two types of clients; personal and business.

Imagine the possibilities and amount of fun that we’ll capture in a pool, lake, sea, marine, or ocean. From the kids playing in the pool or your child’s first swim lesson to a more high-art concept, I can help you plan and create the portrait you’re searching for. If your hobbies include water sports, underwater portraits could be the perfect way to capture the joy you feel while engaging in your favorite pastime. Many of my divers and swimmers are students who are graduating and have spent their school years on swim teams and wish to document their success in their sport or for the yearbook.

oh, snap!

Because you want to remember forever

Every Dive is Unique

My service isn’t limited to shallow water, so if you enjoy diving or deeper water fishing, portraits of this type may also be available. Some of you simply desire the visual effect of underwater portraiture, and I truly love helping them realize their artistic vision and providing them with portraits that they will treasure. There’s no other setting like underwater photography that can capture a graceful portrait, as the water can create a weightless effect for the subject. The resulting photographs are captivating and beautiful.

Lastly, the water itself is supportive. For this reason, many seek maternity portraits. While sitting and posing during late pregnancy can be uncomfortable, being in water offers support and many women find the experience more comfortable than a traditional portrait would be.

The Challenges

I’ll be honest. Shooting underwater photography is quite different than normal photography. It’s like scuba diving and snorkeling. Yes, they both take place with water, but one requires much more experience and much more equipment. Let’s use another example if a gun is shot at the water the bullet will only travel a few feet before it stops. Now imagine the bullet being light. In our case, a camera strobe. An underwater photographer who understands these challenges, camera settings, lighting techniques, and who’s comfortable in water will help make your shoot more enjoyable.

For businesses, I enjoy helping to document water programs offered, from swimming lessons, water-based exercise groups, schools, private pools, and the more fanciful entertainment venues that supply aquariums or mermaid shows to their customers. Hiring someone who understands the specific challenges of underwater photography can ensure the photographs that document your business are high-quality and represent you and your services well. If you operate a business that centers around water, it’s a wise investment to choose a photographer who is experienced in underwater photography to supply the photographs for your website. If you are a member of a competitive water sports team, I can help you create one-of-a-kind portraits of the team to commemorate your year’s memories and camaraderie.

There are many reasons to choose underwater photography, and whatever your reason, I would be thrilled to help you realize the portraits you’re desiring. Please contact me today for more info.
