Artistic Synchronized Swimmers Photo Shoot

Because they are always so busy with sync swimming competitions all over the world, it took a while before we could fit a date for all. But it happened

Underwater Shooting of Singer Noa for her New Album “Love Medicine”

A few weeks ago, I have suggested to my friend, the singer Noa (Achinoam Nini) to organize a project of underwater images for her new album “Love Medicine”. It was a great experience and I wanted to share with you the way it happened. See the following “behind the scenes” clip. I feel like I really had a great chance to do this with this amazing woman who posed so professionally, even without any experience neither in scuba diving nor free diving. This could not be achieved w

Making of an Image by Johannes Felten

I sometimes prefer to make photo-reportages showing underwater photographers at work, rather than going out to take pictures of the sea-life itself. During the last Red Sea shoot-out, I had the chance to take part in some underwater photo productions with famous photographers. The first, Viktor Lyagushkin, whom I’ve related to in this previous post and this time Johannes Felten for whom I’ve shot the following pictures during two dives with him.

Vicky and Vadim have decided to live a great experience and to show to the guests at their wedding some images of themselves which would be quite different from the standard pictures usually showed at this kind of event. They decided to jump into the pool with a wedding dress and suit to have a series of original underwater wedding images. The guests were amazed! For some obvious reasons, they did not wear the same clothes as the ones they would wear during their wedding ce

This beautiful lady has a great mind; she chose to use her wide knowledge and skills to be a conservationist rather than a successful well-paid insurance advisor.
