Our New Underwater Senior Sessions

My first response to seeing the pictures was quite a loud "WOW"... truly amazing work, unique and inspired.

great work as always tony...im continually impressed by what your company does.I would be scared to death to put my gear in one of those underwater cases,,,scares me to pieces. ut obviously it works very well

Now you've gone and done it have to go out and get underwater housing for shooting seniors. Ha Ha Ha

Amazing shots!!! Absolutely love them. Now I want to buy the gear required for this! LOL

Well everything has already been said as to my opinions on this.

So... Great job, these are fantastic!

This is pure AWESOMENESS

Floored ! Count me as as fan.

I was just thinking this season how cool it would be to offer this as an option.
I'm curious what gear was used as well. I think with enough PP and good natural light, you can massage a photo from one of the newer P&S underwater cams to look great. Not sure if additional lighting was used or not. It's hard to tell. I also hear the underwater photography is a whole 'nother beast. Great examples, thanks for sharing! Your work is top notch always.

It's been said over and over, WOW! Absolutely stunning. I would love to see more.

Those are really good.

respects from phamster ! bowing bowing bowing..
wonderful !

I love this idea and the shots are gorgeous to look at!

Great idea and very well done!

The bar is raised again!.....Awesome shots Tony!...please explain your lighting setups.

Ok... For those interested in the setup we used... it was very simply... to the point I"m almost ashamed to tell how easy...

Equipment:
Canon G11
Canon WP-DC34 housing.
One Larson reflector used as a sun blocker and of course one wife to hold reflector above the water over subject.

Our pool has no shade... so the key is when shooting to block the sun to prevent the sun streaking through the water and bouncing off the subject... In the second shot you can we didn't do a good job of that. Brooke moved a little foward and out from under the blocked sun as you can see the sun hitting on her nose. There are a few of the others you can see what the sun will do when streaking through the water and hitting the subject when not blocked. I think of it as just like trying to shoot out in the open with no shade... what should you do? provide some shade for the subject.

As for lighting... very simply. Used the onboard flash of the G11. Nothing fancy.
