Outline
Photographing people underwater is one of the most challenging and rewarding types of underwater photography. It is a major departure from of shooting nature - where your subject don't talk to you or care how their picture looks. This workshop will cover all aspect of photographing people underwater, both in the studio (small pool ) or for commercial shoots and sporting events. James has extensive experience photographing people underwater: With his photo's appearing in two aquatic fitness books/magazines (WP Quarterly, and Health) and other articles on line. You can see more of his photo's at http://www.reefpix.org
