Swimming Pools

 

Think of it as a photography studio—just underwater! In a pool setting, we have complete control over lighting, backdrops, and water conditions, allowing for precision and creativity without the unpredictability of natural environments. With warm, clear water and the ability to fine-tune every detail, pools provide the perfect setting for stylized, high-fashion, or conceptual underwater portraits.

Oceans

 

Shooting in the ocean brings an organic, natural aesthetic to underwater portraits, with the added magic of marine life, shifting light patterns, and the raw energy of open water. While ocean environments introduce dynamic and often unpredictable elements, they also offer unparalleled beauty—from dramatic reefscapes and kelp forests to the soft, ethereal glow of the sun filtering through the waves. Ocean sessions are perfect for those who want their portraits to feel wild, free, and deeply connected to nature.

Springs

 

Natural springs offer some of the clearest waters in the world, creating a surreal and dreamlike setting for underwater photography. With unique geological formations, white sand bottoms, and mesmerizing blue hues, spring environments provide an ethereal backdrop for striking portraits. The serene, glassy water allows for breathtaking clarity and detail, making it an ideal setting for fine art, fantasy, and storytelling-inspired underwater imagery.
