Hi Tarachin - I know you're not adding any more novices but would you mind moving me from New Hampshire to San Francisco, CA since I'm already on the list?  My last shoot was in water but not underwater, I'm working up to it since I didn't have much time to shoot before I moved. 

Thanks so much!  (If you want to delete me from the list until I do an underwater shoot I understand too but I'd much rather be moved smile )

No prob dear, ive changed your location. Im sure you will find an underwater photographer in CA, there are a good number of them here... keep me posted wink

Thanks so much for the tips in the thread.  I had an UW shoot not so long ago but found I was too boyant and couldn't hold my breath for very long (probably as I was treading water between shots) but the tips I will take to my next UW shoot... tonight!

Wish me luck and I'll let you know how I get on.

Got to remember, breathing excersises before I go in.  I light snack to keep energy levels up (and make me less boyant) and relax the face and muscles.

See you later dudes!

Your welcome dear, and Im sure the info will help greatly with your future UW work, let us know how it goes smile

I've done water shoots for over 2 years... and underwater and tank shoots.  I have 2 images in my portfolio of underwater, and underwater fashion in a tank.  One of them is the banner for my blog as well at: www.lelarae.blogspot.com.

I've been swimming competatively since I was 5... and professionally for 8 years...til I quit to do music.  Now I get to play with it all with this, which is FAR more enjoyable!  smile

Here's the links to a few of the underwater images I have posted... since I just discovered this forum.

Hi Nancy,

I don't run the list, but I think you need to have at least one underwater photo in your portfolio in order to be added to the list.

I have done some playing around with underwater work (no formal shoots yet, just SLE and I out at Haulover Beach with a camera and time to play), but need to do more.  I have actively been trying to find someone willing and able to do an UW shoot in N. Florida on the Wacissa River- there is an incredible area there for working in at Blue Hole.

I would like to recomend a few models I worked with that were exeptionaly good underwater models.

Jennifer- Lynne 1039210 From Minesota.
Jennifer was the first model I used this summer and it was for the most part an experiment. She was visiting Vegas at the time for Photography work and actualy took the bus to the pool I work at. Her gracefull poses underwater made my test shoot a great succes and a great encouragement. Of dozen or so underwater shoots I did this summer her was by far one of the best.

Kristen #339715 of Las Vegas was also a great underwater model with great pois and style underwater.

Lola Rose #1086910 from Elpaso Texas was another one of my favorites. She was the first to experiment with make up. Suprisingly it lasted the entire shoot.

AshleyWall #1231966 from Las Vegas was the first model I photographed with a male model underwater. Again her poses were beautiful and gracefull. She was the first model who could hold her breat longer than I could.

Hi! I believe that I am a water baby! I just started modeling, but I've been a synchronized swimmer for pretty much my whole life. I recently had an underwater shoot, but the photographer hasn't sent me any of the images yet. Can I join your list even if I don't do nude work? You can see a video that I am in and made that has a lot of underwater movements http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P2JslAQeNx8
