ONCE IN A LIFETIME DIVING AND PHOTOGRAPHY ADVENTURES

Join me on a truly amazing diving and photography expedition. From tiger and oceanic whitetip shark diving in the Bahamas to whales and humboldt squid encounters in the Sea of Cortez.

VISIT THE BEST DESTINATIONS ON THE PLANET
If we're heading out to dive with tiger sharks it has to be Tiger Beach - a truly spectacular destination where big sharks are plentiful and ready to play.
To see schooling hammerheads, galapagos and silky sharks, there is no better place than the Island of the Sharks itself - Cocos Island, Costa Rica so that is where we go.
For oceanic whitetip shark encounters we visit Cat Island in the Bahamas because there are more oceanic whitetips there than any other dive site in the world. You get the idea...
For the most amazing adventures, its critical to go to the best locations with operators that know exactly when to go.

 


 

LOUNGE ON A LIVEABOARD OR BASK ON THE BEACH
How we get there is also important. Big Fish Expeditions are serious trips for serious photographers and naturalists. The liveaboards we choose are roomy enough for shooters to easily set up their dive and camera gear and comfortable enough to be able to relax and recuperate after a 'hard day' in the water.

 

TAKE AMAZING PHOTOGRAPHS
But in the end, getting you there is just logistics. Any adventure travel company can do that. My job is to help you get the money shot. From hands on camera coaching to making sure that you're in the right place at the right time to enjoy extraordinary, close-up encounters with the ocean's most majestic animals. That is my mission. That, and to have a great time in the process!

If you want even more in depth photography coaching, join my Tiger Beach Photography Workshop. Get one on one shooting advice, presentations on composition, workflow, photoshop techniques and more while enjoying some of the most spectacular shark diving in the world.
