Underwater photography guide to the cenotes of Mexico
Underwater photography guide to the cenotes of Mexico

At 21, I walked away from my chef career, sold everything I owned, and moved to Mexico to dive.
Over the next decade, I shot sharks in the Bahamas, reefs in the Philippines, and caves across the Yucatán. But it was the cenotes that kept pulling me back.

Liquid Light is the culmination of that pull—ten years of obsession, exploration, and a relentless pursuit of light beneath the surface.
