Adrienne has taught many budding underwater photographers and videographers, from basic shooting skills to advanced imaging and post-production techniques.  Customers have improved their recreational skills to preserve their diving memories or learned the techniques necessary to become professional underwater filmmakers or photographers. Our underwater courses make learning photography easy.

We offer underwater photography tuition from beginner to advanced.  If you are new to photography and want to bring your Instagram feed to life, or have topside camera knowledge and want to develop your skills underwater, we have the course for you.

This three-day course is designed both for beginners and those with land photography experience who want to transfer their knowledge to the ocean.  Our intensive program includes photography theory, practice on land, supervised in-water training, and editing workshops. 

We will teach you everything from understanding underwater photography principles to camera set-up and care, buoyancy with a camera, how to approach shy marine life to get the best shots, and basic editing techniques. You will soon be creating your own beautiful underwater images!

We keep the course size small with a maximum of 8 students, so you have the benefit of personal tuition from award-winning filmmaker, Adrienne Gittus. In addition, we will assign a local divemaster teaching assistant to every 2-3 student buddy team to guide you underwater and make sure we have the best safety standards possible.
