Underwater Photography Workshop
For over a decade, I’ve explored and photographed underwater environments around the world .
I didn’t begin as a photographer.
I began as a diver trying to understand why some images worked — and most didn’t.
Over time, I realized underwater photography isn’t separate from diving.
It is the same discipline.
Control of buoyancy becomes camera stability.
Camera stability allows light control.
Light control creates mood — and mood creates impact.
My workshops are built around that progression.
Rather than teaching settings alone, we refine how you move, observe, and work underwater so creating strong images becomes intentional and repeatable.
You won’t just leave with photos.
You’ll leave understanding how to create them again and again.

Cenotes
Three days. Beam-lit caverns. Surreal freshwater worlds where light becomes liquid. This is cenote photography at its most transformative.
Cozumel
Crystal clear reefs. Wide-angle shots of turtles, eagle rays, and massive coral structures. At night, the reef lights up — bioluminescence, squid, and Fluero photography!
Jupiter
Wrecks, reefs, sharks, and the goliath grouper aggregation in South Florida — from twilight long exposures to wide-angle shark encounters to dives at Blue Heron Bridge

Workshop Reviews
“My expectations have been set so high, I don’t know if anyone else could match them.”
I booked a three-day underwater photography workshop with Shawn in the cenotes, and the entire experience was flawless. Every shot was timed with light rays and customized for the images I dreamed of. I even got incredible portraits of myself as a bonus. Shawn and Arthur planned every frame with intention and grace. It was the best dive experience of my life.
