Anyone here ever hired a pro to do a photo shoot? If so, who?
It's fun to shoot photos and video, but I think it would be fun to just go dive and let someone else take the shots (someone who knows what they are doing).
Edit - Guess I should clarify... We'll be in the north florida area diving in Marianna, as well as the Lake City / High Springs areas.
Florida or Akumal? In Akumal Steve Gerrard does an outstanding layout.

Ken took some VERY nice photos for my group in March. He posts them online and lets you pick and choose which ones you want to order. You can order prints, or the digital file.
I think you could probably work out a deal to hire him to come take your pics and arrange for you to purchase all the photos.
Check out our photo shoot at:

I am the one in a borrowed sidemount rig (I always hate diving other people's gear...)
He is a real nice guy and excellent diver and photographer.
Nice Pics. Thanks for the info.Quote:

Gene Page is in the High Springs, FL area and has done an outstanding job for numerous dive related operations. He can be reached on this board as WEPIV.
In my opinion the best of the best:
Jill Heinerth: Florida www.rebreatherpro.com
Tami Thomsen : Wisconsin http://www.diversions-scuba.com/staff.html
Paul Heinerth: Florida paulheinerth@verizon.net
Curt Bowen: Florida www.advanceddivermagazine.com
Jim Rozzi: Florida PM me for e-mail contact
Up and coming:
Arek Pers (Bahamas) - PM me for e-mail contact
Safe diving

I haven't hired anyone, but I've seen Paul Heinerth's work first hand and it is excellent.
Jill Heinerth does excellent work.
For Marianna, see Amanda Cotton - www.acottonphoto.com
Acutally Amanda is living in the Spring Hill/Tampa area now. I'm sure she'd still be willing to do a shoot in Marianna. She's just not 'around the corner' anymore.Quote:

Hi all,
a photo or a video is a great souvenir. If its done well, it's even better!
As for who is doing it, the names stated above are really the ones to go for.
In the same time, not all of us can afford Becky or Curt...
So if you plan a trip in the area, send me message and I'll surely be happy to discuss any photo or video shoot.
As the thread is not from me, I don't consider doing pure commercial, but just as a reply.
Hope to hear about you soon
Cheers

Becky and I just happen to be here in High Springs this week (A little fun, a little business, and a presentation at the NACD Conference). Shoot either of us an email and we'll be glad to see if we can work something out!

Thanks for that update, Brian. I saw and spoke to her briefly the other day here in Marianna but had no idea she wasn't in Pensacola anymore.Quote:
