UNDERWATER COMMERCIAL PHOTOGRAPHY

YOUR PRODUCT. A WHOLE NEW WORLD.

I create underwater photos for brands that want to tell their stories in, on, or around the water.

From product and people to wildlife and wild environments, I bring years of experience together with photography, creative direction and production to create images that feel authentic to the ocean and different from anything created on a traditional set.

Product photography doesn't have to look like product photography.

Put products into a world where people don't expect them to see them.

Whether is a watch disappearing under the surface of the water, dive gear being used where it belongs, or a product becoming part of a bigger ocean story, I want your images to feel like something people would stop and look at the photo for a little bit longer. Even if there is't a product in it.

THE WATER IS MY STUDIO

Underwater photography is not something I occasionally add to a shoot. It' where I spent years working, learning with different people, wildlife, changing light, currents, visibility, and all the unpredictable things that come with working underwater. 

That experience means I can focus on more than just getting the shot. I can help shape an idea into something that feels natural in the water while still delivering what you brand campaign needs.

From controlled product photoshoots to an open ocean production, I'm the happiest when the brief starts with: "do you think we can do this underwater?"
