Liguria: Underwater Photo Shoot for Couples｜Italy

A photo shoot where no one thinks of doing it: underwater.

Everyone has sunset couple photos. Photos in the middle of the sea, with light filtering from the surface and hair moving in slow motion, no.

I'll take you to a stretch of the Ligurian coast that I know by heart after thirty years of diving, to a sheltered spot where the water is clear and the seabed is shallow. From there, we work together: a few shots on the surface to get comfortable, then we go down, one breath at a time, until you forget that there is a camera in front of you.

You don't need to know how to hold your breath. Most of the couples I photograph have never put their heads under water for a photo. I'll explain everything to you before going in, we'll stay at minimal depths, and we'll stop whenever you want. If you prefer to stay on the surface, you can still get beautiful pictures.

How it works

We meet on the beach and take ten minutes to talk: what you like, what makes you uncomfortable, how you want to dress. Then we calmly enter the water. We alternate guided moments with moments when I simply let you be together — that's when the best images come out. At the end, we also take a few shots outside, among the rocks and on the shore, so you have a complete story.

Who it's for

Couples on vacation, anniversaries, marriage proposals, newlyweds who want a different kind of trash-the-dress, or simply two people who want to do something they will remember.

Who's taking your photos

Professional photographer since 1997, specializing in underwater photography for over thirty years, with a technical license down to −56 meters and publications in the field. Which, in other words, means only one thing: I'm comfortable underwater, so you can afford not to be.
