Like many, we started a few years ago, and the path has not always been simple. With our experience, we share with you the essential basics and tips to succeed in your first shots. Whether you’re drawn to photography or video, the fundamental principles remain the same!

Safety first

Before being a photographer or videographer, you are above all a diver. Safety must therefore be your top priority. The most common mistake is being so focused on your shots that you forget to monitor your air consumption or the decompression stop.

Another risk is losing control of your depth, either ascending or descending involuntarily, for example by following a jellyfish. Always inform the dive center of your intentions before departure. Also prepare your buddies for your occasional lack of attention and frequent stops. Choose a understanding dive partner, ready to support you in your new passion.
