Everything I Know

I put together this course, not to teach you everything there is to know about Underwater Photography.
‍
This course will teach you everything I know about the subject. What my thoughts on gear are, what my thoughts on strobe positions are, what my process is like etc...

This course teaches you the things I do, to get my work to where it is.

As I continue to travel and find spare time, I will add in more modules/lessons.
Have something you want me to cover?
‍
Just ask! If I know the subject well, I am happy to add it to the course.
