Our friends
This page is by no means a comprehensive round up of all those people that help making taking photos underwater possible. The companies and websites listed here are just some of folks who help draw together all the elements you need.
Destinations
There’s no point having all this kit if you don’t get it wet! Increasingly I chose my diving destinations for the quality of the photography at the other end and could not do it without the help of travel experts and knowledgeable dive guides.
Scuba Travel -these are the guys I turn to to organise my dive trips. Complete ATOL bonded packages and great at dealing with all those extras to make trips less stressful, such as extra baggage. Alongside my workshops, they run advanced photography workshops with Martyn Guess and Alex Mustard.
Buy kit
Mike’s Dive Cameras is the place to go for camera kit at great prices. Just ask fo Jussi!
