Underwater photography workshops

Underwater photography workshops are an essential part of taking your photography to the next level. Pool work is all well and good, but let’s face it, the best bit is getting into open water with your camera.

fishinfocus offers a number of UK and overseas underwater photography workshops throughout the year. They can last a day or be a full blown photo holiday. Focus on a specific technique or underwater interaction. The aim is to help you master a bit of kit or technique to take your photography further.

Mario has a thorough understanding of modern camera systems and their use underwater; he is ideally placed to advise photographers on equipment that may initially seem complex. His own photography is grounded in a comprehensive knowledge of the principles that underpin light in the sea, which he presents in a series of informal talks that will prove useful to anyone with an underwater camera. His knowledge of Red Sea reefs, in particular, gives workshop participants a fuller insight into the layers of life and colour awaiting them. After years of guiding divers, he has a love for the sea evident in his own photography, and the way he communicates this passion to his guests.

Christian Llewellyn

Had a wonderful day with Mario Vitalini (Fish in Focus) cramming my head with knowledge on lighting techniques, Settings for Manual Strobes, Wide Angle ,Macro, Super Macro, Snoot's and I even got to photograph some amazing plastical marine life. Top day out with a great instructor and a great guy. Cheers Mario. Five Star Service!!

Dave & Paula

Thanks for everything. Another unforgettable trip. Special thanks to Mario, I now know how to use my camera and feel confident to move away from auto settings! If all else fails, there is always Lightroom! I think we will be booking a few photography workshops at the lake

Martina Engels

Thank you so much FishInFocus for another highly productive pool session yesterday. Snoot and Diopter have been on my "to do List" yesterday. And as always after an afternoon packed with Wealth of Information, Playing and masses of Practical Tips I felt "Yes! I can do that!

Len Wells

Thanks for a great day. The instruction was invaluable. I didn't realise how much I did not know, but you informed with dignity and grace.

Nick Godfrey

Just want to give a big word of thanks to Mario Vitalini for hosting a great day for me today going over his level-2 course and some lighting techniques I've been struggling with. With the added help of a great pool session and his little Surrey reef system plus one to one theory sessions I'm now "fully manual" and looking forward to an upcoming trip to the Philippines next month

Lee Westwood

Love it Mario! A great day

Francis Merritt

Very many thanks for a very valuable and enjoyable training session yesterday. I learned a great deal

Andy Langler

Just a quick email to say thanks again for an excellent session on Sunday. It was very enjoyable and very informative and it was great just to be able to spend time concentrating on the camera.

Nicola Willis

Thanks Mario for the advice on our new video lights, they are amazing. Had fun in the Maldives learning how to use them. I love my camera kit setup and I know Darren loves his too

Jan Bushe

Our thanks to Mario - he has been a star - what with the e mails going backwards and forwards with all our questions - he has so much patience - will certainly recommend him
