I understand that this course includes 2 open water dives, I am a qualified and confident scuba diver and happy to partake in group dives at local sites using the buddy dive system in order to complete the photography assignments required. I understand that Matthew Smith will be present acting only as a photography instructor and that I am responsible for my own safety underwater.
I understand that the aim of this course is to learn and practice foundation photographic techniques on what ever subjects are available to me during the dives.

Highly recommend this excellent, value-for-money course. I learned so much, even the first 10 minutes has changed my photography dramatically. Matty is such a talent and is so happy to share his extensive knowledge, including his secrets to those award-winning shots. He’s such a nice bloke too. Can’t wait to do the Over-Under intensive

I learnt lots of new things from Matty. He has a relaxed way of delivering information and was very available for questions and to help individuals. Matty knows his stuff!!! The low ratio meant we could all get personalised help. It was great to mix it up with a Rockpool workshop and a night dive. Highly recommend this workshop.

I’ve now completed both the introductory and the advanced courses that Matt offers and I can highly recommend both. I will certainly be back for more too, as Matt is such a great teacher and so happy to share his amazing experience. He is encouraging and supportive (even with baby beginners like me!) and my photography has come on leaps and bounds with his expert help and guidance. Thank you Matt for being so kind and gentle and supportive to all your students. We think you’re great! 🙂
